House with exposed roof timbers and a patio, south of Lille

Offering a tranquil living environment on a quiet residential street in the town center, this unique property remains tucked away from view, just minutes from the Lille University Hospital (CHU) and major transport links.

A discreet pedestrian entrance opens into this hidden gem. The experience begins with a spacious, independent foyer roughly the size of a garage currently used as a games room. This versatile transition space offers exceptional potential: it could easily serve as an oversized cloakroom, an artist’s studio, a creative workspace, or a professional office.

Beyond this initial area, the home reveals its full, generous proportions. The main living space is striking, featuring a white-painted timber framework that rises to a height of over 4 meters. At the heart of this area, a fully equipped kitchen with a central island sits beneath two large skylights set into the cathedral-style roof. Natural light pours in from above throughout the day, creating a dynamic interplay of shadows and graphic perspectives.

Flooded with light through sliding glass doors, the main level flows seamlessly toward the dining area, a sheltered patio complete with a spa, and a 350 m² enclosed garden featuring a stone terrace and mature trees. Tucked away to one side, an intimate, cozy lounge centers around a fireplace. A full bathroom, equipped with both a shower and a bathtub, completes the ground floor.

A spiral metal staircase leads to a suspended mezzanine an ideal spot for a home office. From here, you reach the sleeping quarters tucked under the eaves, where the bedrooms feature exposed wooden beams.
