Les Chartrons

In the heart of the sought-after Chartrons district, this duplex apartment enjoys a prime location. Set on the piano nobile of a former merchant’s house, it combines unobstructed river views with preserved period features that give it unique character and sophistication.

From the entrance, the generous proportions set the tone. Versailles parquet, Louis XVI woodwork, trumeaux, fireplaces, and wallpapers from the prestigious Zuber manufactory form an authentic décor, rarely found intact today. In the living room, a fireplace stands out with a medallion depicting Elizabeth I, a reminder of the prominent role played by foreign merchants in Bordeaux’s wine trade. English, Irish, and Dutch traders, great enthusiasts of claret, established the Chartrons as the emblematic hub of wine merchants from the 18th century onward.

Facing the river, the living room open onto a continuous balcony with sweeping views of the Garonne. On the courtyard side, a glass-roofed kitchen extends the period atmosphere with a more intimate charm.

Upstairs, a spacious bedroom with en-suite shower room faces the courtyard, while two further bedrooms look toward the river, complemented by a second shower room. An independent entrance also allows for division or mixed use.

The property comes with a large cellar and well-maintained common areas that preserve the building’s historic spirit. Some light works would further enhance the whole.

A highly desirable address, steps from the tramway and shops, and within walking distance of the Jardin Public and the historic center. A property for discerning buyers who value history and the timeless elegance of the Chartrons.
