Médan House

BARNES International presents, in the heart of the historic village of Médan, a remarkable character property consisting of a main house of approximately 275 m² of living space, an annex house of about 106 m², and outbuildings, set within a wooded park of 4,221 m².

Built before 1948, the main house captivates at first glance with its elegant architecture, high slate roof, balconies, and large openings facing the garden.

Inside, the home reveals a unique atmosphere steeped in history. Antique wood paneling, parquet floors, fireplaces, a carved wooden staircase, and a remarkable coffered ceiling with painted decorations create an architectural and decorative ensemble that has retained all its authenticity.

Built over a cellar and spread across three levels, the house opens on the ground floor to a large vestibule distributing the reception rooms: living room, dining room, pantry, and kitchen.

The first floor houses several bedrooms, including a suite with its own shower room, as well as a bathroom opening onto a balcony.

The top floor contains one of the most unique spaces of the property: a large artist’s studio, along with three bedrooms and a toilet.

A second independent house of about 106 m² completes the property. Organized over two levels, it includes a living room, kitchen, office, several bedrooms, and a bathroom.

Two cellars and a large adjoining garage/hangar provide additional space and many usage possibilities.

The entire property offers more than 380 m² of living space and is set in a 4,221 m² park, where mature vegetation preserves the privacy of the estate.

Renovation work will reveal the full potential of this heritage home, ideal for lovers of old architecture and historic places seeking a rare family property in the western Paris area.

Médan, a historic village on the banks of the Seine near Villennes-sur-Seine, is closely linked to French literary history. Émile Zola bought his house there in 1878, charmed by the village’s tranquility. He worked on the Rougon-Macquart series there and gathered the writers who founded the famous Soirées de Médan. His home now houses the Maison Zola – Musée Dreyfus.

The proximity of Villennes-sur-Seine station allows access to Paris-Saint-Lazare via line J. The area’s appeal will be enhanced by the extension of the RER E westward by 2027, offering new direct connections to La Défense, Porte Maillot, and central Paris.
