Multi-panel loft within the former Ouillets factory

Hidden from view behind the historic facade of the former metal eyelet factory in Ivry-sur-Seine, lies a unique 131sqm (140sqm floor area) triplex, conceived as a secret retreat within an iconic condominium complex.

Accessible directly from the ground floor, with no neighbors above, this space offers a rare sense of independence, far removed from the usual conventions of multi-unit living, with the immediate feeling of a top-floor apartment overlooking the city.

From the moment you enter, the tone is set. The rooms are organized with precision and clarity around a generous entrance area, incorporating storage and a cloakroom, before opening onto a fitted and equipped kitchen, designed as a true gathering place.

This kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining room and living room, creating a spacious and luminous living area where the vertical lines are both striking and calming. The eye is immediately drawn to the impressive height of the volume, nearly ten meters from floor to ceiling, an unmistakable hallmark of the industrial loft style.

Extending from this, a shared, private, and verdant terrace complements the reception areas, offering a discreet and tranquil outdoor respite. A first metal staircase, with a resolutely contemporary design, leads to the intermediate floor.

This floor houses two bedrooms with clean lines, each equipped with built-in storage, as well as a bathroom. From the landing, a glass and metal walkway suspends movement and connects to an open-plan office space overlooking the living room. This interstitial space, both functional and contemplative, offers a spectacular view of the volumes and highlights the original architecture of the building.

The top floor, nestled under the roof, contains two additional bedrooms bathed in natural light thanks to skylights–true havens under the eaves, conducive to calm and privacy.

The complex offers a unique living environment, ideal for those seeking a sensitive connection to space, materials, and light, and who appreciate the raw elegance of preserved industrial architecture. The option of free parking within the residence further enhances the comfort of this distinctive location, situated within a renowned architectural ensemble.

Built in 1913 by architect Paul Sée for the American firm United Shoe Machinery, this former factory, inspired by American design, stands as one of the most innovative examples of early 20th-century industrial architecture.

Some of the buildings, now listed as historical monuments, house the Ivry Contemporary Art Center, further reinforcing the site’s cultural and heritage significance. Just a short walk away, the Ivry Town Hall district is the vibrant and most sought-after heart of the town.

Quality shops, a lively market, gourmet restaurants, and cultural amenities create a pleasant and dynamic daily life. The area boasts excellent transport links, including metro, bus, and RER, providing quick and seamless connections to Paris and the entire metropolitan area.

This neighborhood combines urban living with a truly high quality of life, giving this loft a strategic and desirable address. Subject to the regulations governing the allocation of SCI (Société Civile Immobilière – a type of French real estate company).
