iad France - Laurie-Ann Vieilly presents: ÉCULLY - BOURGEOIS RESIDENCE FROM 1896 WITH PRESERVED CHARM ON A PARK OF NEARLY 2,000 M²
316 m² Carrez law - Tree-lined park - Independent apartment - Elevator - 4 garages - Buildable plot
Price: €1,350,000
Just minutes from the center of Écully and on the doorstep of Lyon, discover a unique property where the charm of the late 19th century is expressed in every detail.
Built in 1896, this elegant bourgeois residence is revealed at the end of a private driveway, behind a motorized gate, in the heart of a fenced and wooded plot of nearly 2,000 m².
From the first steps, the character of the place is evident: remarkable patterned cement tiles, herringbone parquet floors, marble fireplaces, moldings and rosettes, antique doors, period woodwork and ironwork... All these heritage elements tell the story of this house and give it a rare atmosphere.
A family property with generous proportions, also offering multiple layout possibilities for those wishing to imagine a new chapter in its history.
RECEPTION SPACES WITH TIMELESS CHARM
Spread over three main levels, the house impresses with its spacious rooms, high ceilings, and particularly interesting layout.
On the ground floor, a beautiful entrance leads to two large reception rooms filled with light, currently arranged as living and dining rooms.
The original architectural features have retained all their nobility: antique fireplaces, parquet floors, moldings, and glazed doors create an elegant and authentic ensemble.
A large family kitchen, extended by a generous pantry and a scullery, opens onto a pleasant green terrace shaded by climbing plants.
This level also includes a large bedroom with independent access, offering the possibility to set up an office or a space dedicated to professional activity, as well as a bathroom and toilets.
On the first floor, accessible by several staircases and the elevator, the volumes allow for three to four bedrooms and several bathrooms or shower rooms, depending on the chosen layout.
On the second floor, a renovated and ready-to-live-in apartment is a real asset. It includes three bedrooms, a bathroom, toilets, a large living room, an open kitchen, and an attic space.
This apartment can remain independent or be connected to the rest of the house through existing internal circulation.
The main staircase and elevator serving the different levels have recently been renovated and are in very good condition.
A TREE-LINED PARK ON THE DOORSTEP OF LYON
Outside, the property opens onto a fenced and landscaped plot of nearly 2,000 m².
A majestic protected centennial tree, several fruit trees, a pond, and lush vegetation create a charming garden offering multiple spaces to imagine throughout the seasons.
The terrace adjacent to the kitchen invites you to enjoy sunny days, host family and friends, or simply savor a meal in the shade of the greenery.
Part of the land also has buildable potential, allowing for various development projects: pool, pool house, or additional outbuildings, subject to necessary urban planning permissions.
Four lockable garages, an adjoining workshop, and several parking options complete the property.
A PROPERTY WITH MULTIPLE POSSIBILITIES
Beyond its remarkable architecture, this house stands out for the flexibility of its layout.
It can notably accommodate:
- A large family seeking spacious reception areas and multiple bedrooms - An intergenerational project allowing everyone to maintain independence - A main residence combined with offices or a professional activity - A heritage project to divide into several units, to be studied according to urban planning rules and applicable authorizations
Its independent apartment on the top floor, multiple accesses, three levels, and elevator open up a wide range of possibilities.
THE CHARM OF THE OLD, TO REINTERPRET
Carefully preserved over generations, this residence has retained much of its original architectural elements.
Renovation work is now to be considered, mainly on the ground and first floors: facades, exterior joinery, kitchens, bathrooms, painting, and modernization of certain spaces.
The old parquet floors and cement tiles, in very good condition, provide an excellent base for a restoration project respectful of the house’s identity.
The second floor, already renovated, is habitable as is.
Technically, the property has a recent gas boiler with external probe regulation, solar panels contributing to hot water production in summer, and an energy performance rating of D.
An interesting result for a building of this era, even before thermal improvements that could be considered during renovation.
A full basement of about 100 m² houses cellars, workshops, storage spaces, and a wine cellar.
ÉCULLY – A SOUGHT-AFTER ADDRESS ON THE DOORSTEP OF LYON
