Architect-designed duplex loft and top floor overlooking a lush garden
Behind a sober facade of industrial brick, on the quiet corner of Rue Paul Mazy, stands a building whose history still resonates in the light of its volumes. Formerly a dairy cooperative, this building has undergone an exemplary reinvention under the guidance of Pierre Bertheau and the XY architectural firm: neither pastiche nor tabula rasa, but a respectful metamorphosis, rooted in material and space.
The loft we present occupies the first and top floor of this iconic renovation in Ivry-sur-Seine. A duplex, it boasts 155 m² (162 m² floor space) of open space, bathed in light and open to life.
Upon entering, the dining room with open, fitted and equipped kitchen offers 40 m² of warm everyday living, extended by a 41 m² cathedral living room, whose size is highlighted by a spectacular high ceiling and a southwest orientation. A wood-burning stove sits at the heart of this space, like a vertical breath within a free plan.
On the same level, two bedrooms are discreetly arranged: one generous (15.18 m²), and the other, currently the owners’ painting studio (14.15 m²), with a mezzanine ideal for relaxation or work. A bathroom and separate toilet complete this first level. A bathroom, a separate powder room, and a tack room complete the amenities on this level.
The staircase?sculptural, designed as a clear line?leads to the upper floor. There is a landing leading to two additional bedrooms, with sloping ceilings (9.41 m² and 9.15 m² Carrez law, but each with over 12 m² of floor space), a shower room, and a separate toilet.
The property impresses with its coherent interior architecture, its open-plan spaces, its play of openings, its dual orientation, and its skylights. The place is naturally suited to contemporary family life, sensitive to space, history and shared nature.
Because here, the condominium isn’t limited to common areas: it offers a landscaped garden in the heart of the city, a veritable oasis of greenery within the urban fabric.
This green lung is overlooked by the old overhead cranes, striking vestiges of the site’s industrial past. Witnesses of the former Renault company and then the dairy company, these metal structures give the place an almost scenographic dimension, somewhere between working-class memory and a reinvented present.
Located just a stone’s throw from Rue Molière and the banks of the Seine, this residential area of ??Ivry enjoys excellent proximity to Paris, without compromising its own identity. The address is served by metro line 7 (Pierre et Marie Curie station, a 10-minute walk), the RER C “Ivry-sur-Seine” (also a 10-minute walk), as well as several bus lines.
The food shops on rue Marat and avenue Venise Gosnat, the schools (public and private, from nursery to high school) and the bi-weekly market on the town hall square create a practical, diverse and human-sized living environment.
The city, undergoing gentle transformation, is establishing itself as fertile ground for artists, architects, and families seeking urban authenticity. This loft is a faithful reflection of this.
