In the heart of the highly sought-after Ainay district in Lyon 2, just steps from the Ainay Abbey, on a particularly quiet street, this 254 m² Carrez apartment offers a rare layout that combines living space with professional activity.

Located in a beautiful late 19th-century character building, it presents a particularly interesting opportunity for a liberal profession in Lyon 2 seeking spacious rooms, a prestigious address, and the possibility to separate private and professional areas.

The apartment features 7 main rooms. A large entrance leads to a bright south-facing living room overlooking the courtyard, as well as an elegant dining room with an open kitchen. The volumes and layout easily allow for office spaces, a practice, consultation or reception rooms, while preserving a strictly residential area.

The private area includes five bedrooms, including a large master suite of 36.80 m² with a shower room, as well as four bedrooms measuring 34.95 m², 20.90 m², 19.75 m², and 12 m². A large bathroom and a laundry room complete the space.

A true asset for a liberal profession

The owners have obtained the co-ownership’s approval to separate about 60 m² and create a second independent entrance directly from the landing.

This layout notably allows for the creation of an independent professional space, separate from the main residence: law office, consulting activity, architecture, medical or paramedical practice, or other liberal professions compatible with the co-ownership rules and applicable regulations.

The co-ownership permits the exercise of liberal professions under certain conditions.

The apartment also retains all the sought-after features of an old apartment in Ainay: high ceilings, fireplaces, wood paneling, original solid oak floors, generous volumes, and architectural charm. It also benefits from double-glazed windows, individual gas heating, and a secure door.

An 18 m² cellar and an attic complete the property.

A highly sought-after address in the heart of Lyon Presqu’île, close to shops, transport, schools, and central Lyon institutions.

A rare layout in Lyon 2: 254 m² allowing the combination of main residence and professional activity at the same address, with the possibility of having an independent space of about 60 m².
