25 kilometers southwest of Paris and about ten minutes from the Plateau de Saclay, Cabinet BR Immobilier offers you this sublime house in very good condition with a living area of 372m2, built in 1810 and steeped in history, on a plot of 1600m2 (including a landscaped garden of 1000m2), which was for 150 years a guinguette inn and a hotel for travelers before becoming the workshop of painter Fernand Léger. Numerous possibilities for arrangements. The main house, called ”Le Gros Tilleul”, consists on the ground floor of an entrance under a period veranda that allows, on its left, access to a very large living room/reception room of 40m2. Past the entrance, on the right is the artist workshop (currently that of a photographer), an 80m2 space bathed in light from skylights, easily transformable into an immense living area, with a first water room + WC. A few steps lead to the adjoining dining room of a large separate and equipped kitchen (with pantry and laundry) opening onto a terrace facing north. Other steps lead down to a large office equipped with a photo lab. The staircase leading to the first floor serves four bedrooms as follows: a first, now a library, benefits from a very beautiful ceiling height with superb natural lighting (it was the workshop of Nadia Léger), followed by a parental suite of 30m2, and finally two other bedrooms, a magnificent blue mosaic bathroom, separate WC, and a linen space. A second staircase leads to the attic before which is a guest room. Two outbuildings complete this property: a triplex of 70m2 with independent access consisting of an entrance, a living room with kitchen, two bedrooms, a shower room, and WC; finally, separately, the house called ”Le Petit Tilleul”, very well arranged, is a duplex of 50m2 with living room, open and equipped kitchen, shower room, separate WC, and upstairs a large bedroom. This property offers countless possibilities. It can accommodate a very large family, one or more artists (painter, photographer, sculptor...), liberal professions, medical office, or even a restaurateur who would like to revive this place that was an inn for more than a century, and which, in the second half of the 20th century, saw the likes of Robert Doisneau, Willy Ronis, Paul Eluard, Blaise Cendrars, Louis Aragon, and even Henry Kissinger.... 4/5 parking spaces in the courtyard. Large municipal parking 100 meters away. RER B Courcelle-sur-Yvette station 4 minutes by car, shops 5 minutes away, elementary school Les Sablons 500 meters away, high school 3 minutes by car, grandes écoles and University Paris-Saclay 10 minutes away. Beautiful forest for lovely walks just behind the house.
