Modernist architect-designed house in the heart of Moulins-lès-Metz

This architect-designed house, built in 1961, is a direct descendant of the famous Californian Case Study Houses. Spanning 273 m² on a wooded, enclosed 1,500 m² plot, this unique property nestled in the heart of Moulins-lès-Metz offers a living environment that combines city and nature. Its clean lines and functional structure provide an exceptional canvas for mid-century design enthusiasts looking for a unique life project.

The main entrance distributes the volumes with a fluidity characteristic of modernist architecture. The first floor opens onto a vast living room bathed in light thanks to generous bay windows. This reception area, featuring a fireplace and original terracotta tiles, extends onto a suspended terrace overlooking the garden with no neighbors in sight. A separate kitchen with its own pantry completes the living area. The opposite wing houses the sleeping area, consisting of four bedrooms, a bathroom, and a shower room.

The garden level, connected to the house by an internal staircase, also has a separate entrance, offering an ideal layout for discreetly running a private practice. This level is centered around a large 860 sq ft technical area offering three spacious rooms, complemented by two additional bedrooms, a games room, and a shower room. This versatile space, which opens widely onto the outside, offers a multitude of possibilities, from an independent workspace to an extension of the family living area. A cellar, laundry room, and boiler room complete this single-story level.

The landscaped garden surrounds the house with a protective green setting and the natural pond adds an extra touch of bucolic charm. A separate 40 m² garage with space for two vehicles completes the amenities of this property. The location makes everyday life easy, with nursery and primary schools just a two-minute walk away. Middle and high schools are less than a ten-minute drive away, as are the Actisud shopping area and motorway access to Nancy or Luxembourg. Metz city center and its TGV station are only ten minutes away, while a bus line at the foot of the property provides a direct link to the city.

This rare property, with its distinctive architectural style, invites creative renovation to enhance its historic character and generous proportions.
