Un Monument De La Belle Époque Avec Une Terrasse De 90 M²

In the heart of the Ville d’Hiver, just steps from the Parc Mauresque, the Belle Époque residence breathes new life into the former Hôtel Continental de la Forêt, which first opened its doors in 1889. Dressed stone and red-brick façades, a grand ceremonial staircase, landscaped grounds with a restored bandstand: a rare address where Arcachon’s heritage meets the comforts of contemporary living.

This 132 m² (1,420 sq ft) duplex apartment offers something the Ville d’Hiver seldom does: a terrace of over 90 m² (970 sq ft), flowing straight out from the main living space.

On the ground floor, a series of French doors opens wide onto the terrace. The 46 m² living room with open-plan kitchen boasts ceilings of over 3.40 m (11 ft). A 16 m² bedroom with en-suite shower room and a guest WC complete this level, allowing for easy day-to-day living without ever needing the stairs.

Downstairs, a dedicated family and guest wing offers two further bedrooms of 16 m² and 14 m², two shower rooms, a walk-in wardrobe, a second WC and a utility room: space for everyone to enjoy their own privacy.

With a reversible heat pump for heating and cooling, double-glazed timber windows, an energy rating of B and the option to purchase a garage in the basement car park, this home combines the comfort of new-build living with a truly historic setting. All the charm of a family home, with none of the upkeep.

Since 1889, these walls have witnessed some of Arcachon’s finest hours. Now it’s your turn to add a chapter of your own.

Since the late 19th century, Arcachon has captivated visitors with its bracing sea air, fragrant pine forests and sweeping beaches stretching towards the Dune du Pilat, with Cap-Ferret on the horizon. On the hills above the town, the Ville d’Hiver unfolds in winding lanes lined with neoclassical, Moorish and colonial-style villas: a protected enclave just minutes from the bustle of the town centre, and once a retreat for Empress Sisi of Austria and Empress Eugénie.

The Belle Époque residence stands on one of the Ville d’Hiver’s most celebrated addresses: Allée du Docteur Fernand Lalesque, named after the physician who established Arcachon’s reputation as a health resort. From this elevated position, everything is within walking distance: the equestrian centre in 3 minutes, the Parc Mauresque and market in 6, the casino in 8, the beach in 10 and the station in 15, with Paris just 2 hrs 58 by high-speed train. The marina is 12 minutes away by bike, the golf course a 6-minute drive, and Bordeaux under 40 minutes by car.
