Parisian-style house with garden

A blue door, herringbone parquet flooring, books, and foliage visible through the windows. Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac in Créteil, this house offers a setting where the elegance of a Parisian interior meets the joys of garden-side living. Situated on a 450 m² plot, it provides 85 m² of living space?with a total floor area of nearly 92 m²?just a ten-minute walk from both the local village center and the Créteil Préfecture metro station.

Its owners, a young Parisian family, found here exactly what they had been missing: a genuine outdoor space, a home perfectly suited to their needs, and a neighborhood lifestyle?highlighted by Sunday market trips, easily reached by bicycle.

Inside, the renovation preserves the original details that give the home its soul. From the moment you enter, the parquet flooring sets the tone, complemented by understated moldings, glass-paneled doors, and a wooden staircase with a gracefully curved banister. A palette of whites, light-toned woods, and subtle accents of blue creates a bright, personal space that feels airy and uncluttered. The living room, with its delicate proportions and windows looking out onto the lush greenery, offers an intimate atmosphere.

The kitchen, completely reimagined just a few months ago, features a long, sleek, linear layout. With white cabinetry, marble-effect surfaces, gold-toned fixtures, and touches of wood, the space is as beautiful as it is functional. It is a place to cook and dine, with a door that opens directly onto the terrace. Sheltered from view, this outdoor area is perfect for everything from a morning coffee to summer meals, framed by the treetops on the horizon.

Upstairs, two lovely bedrooms continue this gentle, serene atmosphere. A shower room with a toilet completes this level.

The garden-level floor, also recently renovated, adds a valuable layer of flexibility to everyday life. An office offers direct access to the outdoors, while an additional room?perfect for games, reading, or other personal pursuits?can also serve as a third bedroom. A laundry room, ample storage space, and a mudroom for stowing shoes and coats upon returning from the garden complete this practical floor.

Outside, the landscape unfolds through a leafy pathway, established trees, and a terrace set against an ivy-clad façade. The garden’s lush, dense vegetation creates an immediate sense of escape?a place to enjoy lunch in the shade, let children play, or simply watch the seasons go by.

Parking is available in front of the house, within the quiet cul-de-sac. The village center and the metro station are both within walking distance. An ideal home for those who appreciate interiors with character and wish to extend their daily life into the open air.

This property is part of a “horizontal” co-ownership (copropriété horizontale) consisting of two units; there is no management body (syndic) and no co-ownership fees, with the only shared element being a dividing wall.
