Charming duplex apartment under the eaves in Bastille

In the heart of the sought-after Bastille/Charonne district, beyond a charming flower-filled courtyard, this 58.82 sq m (41.75 sq m Carrez law) duplex occupies the fourth and top floor (accessible by stairs) of a historic building set back from the street.

The entrance opens onto a 29.5 sq m living room where time seems to stand still. Here, raw materials take center stage: original terracotta floor tiles complement exposed beams and a working fireplace, creating an atmosphere that is both intimate and cozy. Three windows framing the Parisian rooftops flood the space with soft light. This level includes an open-plan kitchen, a dining area, and a living room.
The renovation, orchestrated by an architectural studio, enhances the building’s historical character with contemporary lines, custom-built storage solutions, and decorative niches.

A custom-built Japanese-style staircase leads to the upper level, nestled under the eaves. This sleeping area, with its countryside feel in Paris, features a master bedroom, a bathroom with a bathtub, and a second, smaller, multi-purpose bedroom, ideal for an inspiring office or a child’s cozy retreat.

Completely redesigned with high-quality materials, this urban haven will appeal to those who appreciate unique spaces and seek tranquility and character.

A rare and charming property, located near the shops and metro stations of Place de la Bastille.

Property subject to co-ownership regulations.
