A Third Floor Apartment, With A Garage, In Lille In An Art Deco Style Building From 1925

A third-floor apartment, with a garage, in Lille in an Art Deco style building from 1925. The apartment is located on the third storey of a stone building built in 1925, situated on Boulevard de la Liberté, a thoroughfare created in 1860 as part of Haussmann’s urbanisation programme in the Second Empire period. Today, it is lined with plane trees and runs past the fine arts museum as well as Lille’s prefecture, providing easy access to the city-centre. The seven-storey building was designed by architect Charles Sarazin and possesses an Art Deco inspired facade, which boasts strict geometry characterised by sober lines and embellished with stylised patterns as well as decorative ironwork, and combines concrete, stone and brick.

The main entrance to the residence is via a large, glazed door, equipped with an intercom. At the rear of the entrance hall, the inner courtyard and cellars can be reached via a large, Art Deco inspired, wrought-iron gate. To the right at the back of the vestibule, there is an elevator to all the storeys, except for the seventh floor, encased in a metal hoist-way. A distinctive feature of the building is the excellent condition of its communal areas. A 14-m² former maid’s room on the seventh floor and two cellars in the basement are also included in the property.
