An Exquisite Private Mansion, a Jewel of Rouen’s Historic Heritage

Hidden behind a discreet courtyard, hidden from view from Rouen’s city center, lies one of the jewels of the city’s heritage: the Hôtel de Jacques Abraham Le Borgne, a Rouen merchant, built in 1777 during the reign of Louis XVI. Considered one of the most elegant private mansions built during this period, it unfolds its majestic freestone façade, punctuated by cornices and a staircase resting on charming, characteristic pavilions.

The splendor is revealed as soon as you cross the threshold. A majestic entrance leads to an oval living room of intimate proportions, then to a fully equipped kitchen. This level is completed by a guest room and a storage area. Further down, the garden level houses a laundry room and linen room, discreetly dedicated to everyday practical needs.

On the first floor, the decor flourishes in all its richness: a landing leads to a master suite with its bathroom, a second bedroom, a landing, and a refined living room adorned with stucco, moldings, and period paintings, delicate testaments to the 18th-century art of living.

The ascent continues to the second floor, where an office, additional bedrooms, and bathrooms punctuate the spaces.
Then comes the third level, where the atmosphere changes: beneath the exposed beams, a convivial universe opens up, consisting of a billiard room, a lounge with a bar, and rooms ready to be transformed into bedrooms, complete with a bathroom and a toilet.

A cellar completes the ensemble, as does private garage parking. Finally, a rare and valuable asset, a 162 m² commercial space accompanies the property, offering a generous rental yield.

A true heritage treasure, this unique location combines the splendor of yesteryear with the comfort of today, in the heart of Rouen.
