Behind a discreet and elegant facade punctuated by its wooden shutters, this freehold house built in 1899 offers a living area of 76m2 (110.42sqm on the ground), organized on 3 levels and a basement subtly intertwined.

Taking place in what was once the residential building of an old farmhouse and located in the city center of Villejuif, sheltered from the hustle and bustle but close to all amenities, this building embodies a rare art of living, made of calm, efficiency and delicate beauty.

Here, no vast plateaus or excessive heights, but a succession of skillfully articulated luminous spaces, where each square meter has been thought out, optimized, valued.

The house opens onto an intimate 15.60m2 terrace providing access to a charming ground floor housing a 31.76m2 living/dining room and a bright and welcoming kitchen.

A custom-made concrete staircase designed by the architect owner provides access to the upper floors or the basement offering a healthy cellar, ideal for storing wine or setting up a workshop, as well as a boiler room.

The first level houses a large 21.74m2 bedroom with balanced proportions, benefiting from superb brightness, as well as a recently renovated bathroom with simple lines and a separate toilet.

The storage has been carefully integrated, and each corner seems to fit into a functional and soothing logic.

The last level under the roof and attic offers two rooms currently used as bedrooms, both with Velux windows and beautiful brightness.

This house does not seek to impress but to seduce with discretion – the building serves as a vertical refuge, in resonance with Japanese aesthetics, where lightness, the circulation of light and controlled verticality create a rare harmony.

Located a few minutes’ walk from the city center and the Villejuif town hall district, this pocket-sized house benefits from a privileged environment.

Everything is within walking distance: schools (George Sand primary school and Aimé Césaire middle school are a 5-minute walk away), quality food shops (Caquelin bakery/pastry shop and its remarkable pastries), not to mention the Joséphine Baker dance and music conservatory located just a 2-minute walk from the address that structures the local cultural life.

Villejuif is today asserting itself as a town in the midst of an urban renaissance, while retaining a village atmosphere in its historic center. This house, a rare example of late 19th-century buildings, offers a peaceful, pedestrian-friendly lifestyle, perfectly integrated into the lively and welcoming fabric of the city.
