Appartamento Trilocale

At Novarea, we know that volume can never be compensated for by surface area.
Place Georges Clemenceau, in the heart of Biarritz, this 95 m² Carrez law loft occupies the first floor of a stone building from the late 19th century. The address speaks for itself: Galeries Lafayette, the casino, and the Grande Plage are fifty meters away, and the Halles are two hundred meters away.
The building has a history, and it is not unrelated to what the property has become. Its ground floor housed Chanel’s salons, whose period decor is still visible behind the veranda. And it is on this floor, according to its owners, that the sewing workshops were held. The neighborhood is reconnecting today with what made its reputation. Chanel returned this year just a minute’s walk away, in the Larralde villa on Rue Gardères, where Gabrielle Chanel opened her first house in 1915. The official Rolex retailer has just opened across the square, right in front of the building.
What strikes you upon entering is the height. First, that of the living room: nearly 58 m² of open space under double height. Especially that of the three openings to the outside. Facing due south, they let in exceptional light throughout the day. It is easy to understand why sewing workshops were established here. An open mezzanine extends the space, connected by a spiral steel staircase designed for the place. The kitchen integrates around a central island, never breaking the volume. The original pine flooring has been preserved and restored. It runs throughout the property: it is what gives the loft its workshop soul.
A continuous balcony of 9.50 m² borders the living room across its entire width and overlooks the magnolias of the square. A first shower room with WC completes this level. Upstairs, a hallway leads to two bedrooms as well as a second shower room with WC. There is also a private entrance of 7.80 m² fully fitted with storage. The actual available space thus exceeds 112 m².
A true 160 cm bed is hidden in the cabinetry of the living room. It brings the number of sleeping spaces to six without taking away from the volume. This is a decisive asset in a seaside resort, for hosting guests.
Two figures summarize what makes this property unusual. The first is an energy performance diagnosis in class B, with emissions in class A, in a building of this era. This is rare and removes the question of energy renovation work from the file. The second: €1,344 in annual charges, or €14 per square meter. This is half of what a comparable apartment in the hypercenter of Biarritz bears.
This loft can serve as a pied-à-terre facing the shops or as a second home just fifty meters from the Grande Plage. It can also be an investment in one of the few Biarritz addresses that never go out of style. It lends itself to everything, as long as you love volumes that are out of the ordinary. There is nothing to plan, nothing to redo: all that remains is to unpack your bags. The best way to discover it is during the day when the sun shines through its three openings. We would be happy to show it to you.
