Californian-style architect-designed house to be reinterpreted

It is in Orléans Est, in a quiet residential area, that nestles this atypical architect-designed house, designed in the 70s in a pure Californian spirit of the sixties. With its 231m2 of living space, this generously sized house unfolds onto a wooded garden of more than 1200m2, rare in the heart of the city. From the driveway, the lines of the house and the play of perspectives immediately catch the eye. Once through the door, the brightness and the singular architecture of the place give it a unique atmosphere. The double living room, with a surface area of 56 sqm, is organized around a suspended fireplace and a winter garden and its sculptural cacti, highlighted by large Japanese-style openings. Throughout the space, accordion doors and dividing walls, typical of the 60s style, punctuate the volumes and allow for modulating the atmospheres, between fluid openings and a more intimate cocoon. In its extension, the entrance distributes a vast open and convivial kitchen, designed for shared meals. A spacious master suite and its bathroom complete this first level and offer all the comfort of a single-story life. All around, the landscaped garden surrounds the house with greenery and extends the living spaces to the outside. The upper floor has a mezzanine office, open to the kitchen, a library area or games room, as well as two bedrooms and a bathroom. As for the basement, it includes a first heated area, easily converted into a fourth bedroom, and extends into the boiler room space, the cellar, the laundry room, as well as a garage. This rare property, between emblematic architecture, generous volumes and enveloping garden, is waiting to write a new page in its history and to find those who will be able to reinterpret it with accuracy, sensitivity and inspiration.
