Eine Elegante Residenz Aus Dem Jahr 1648, Die Zwischen Einem Ehrenhof Und Einem Schattigen Garten Liegt

An elegant residence dating back to 1648, standing between a court of honour and a shady garden in the historical town centre of Châlons-en-Champagne. From the street, the residence stands out for its high slate roofs, which rise above the plot’s enclosing walls, which feature two oculi. A monumental gateway marks the entrance: an arched carriage entrance featuring rusticated stone blocks adorned with a bas-relief and overlooked by a carved monster head as the keystone. Its wrought-iron gate, now electric, offers a glimpse of the courtyard. Once through the gateway, you find yourself in the paved court of honour, which reveals a main classically designed edifice built in 1648, the very year of the Treaties of Westphalia. True to the model of a residence set between a courtyard and a garden, it is extended on one side by a wing at a right angle by the street. The whiteness of the walls, brought out by limestone window surrounds, cornices and quoins, makes the elevations bright. A high slate roof with long mansard slopes, underlined with a stone cornice, features arched-pediment dormers. On both the courtyard side and the garden side facing west, tall small-paned windows give the elevations an even rhythm. The house does not have so many street-facing windows. Seven stone steps lead up to a double glazed door where the edifice’s two sections meet. The ground floor, with a ceiling height of over four metres, brings together the reception rooms around an entrance hall from where a suspended staircase, dating back to the French Restoration period, leads upstairs. The upstairs floors have a slightly lower ceiling height, of around 3.40 metres, and house lounges and offices, extending up to a loft space where exposed oak roof beams extend above a vast room with a floor area of around 95m². Next, there are offices and a self-contained apartment. The edifice’s total floor area reaches 560m², divided into 15 rooms.
