A Bright Apartment With Stunning Views From A Continuous Balcony, On Rue De Rivoli, Opposite The

A bright apartment with stunning views from a continuous balcony, on Rue de Rivoli, opposite the Louvre, on the 5th floor of a building erected in 1880. The building with a stepped roof was erected in 1880 at the corner of Rue de Rivoli and Rue Jean-Tison. It boasts an ashlar facade punctuated by stringcourses, pediments and carved lintels, as well as continuous balconies on the 2nd and 5th floors supported by modillion cornices. The building is topped by a zinc roof dotted with dormer windows. In the street, a double-leaf, glazed entrance door adorned with a wrought-iron acanthus leaf and garlanded décor opens into a hall boasting a ceiling with a floral-patterned rose and cornice, above flooring made up of period multi-coloured cement tiles. To reach the apartments, an entrance code is needed. There is also intercom-controlled access. An elevator leads to the upper floors, as well as the original wooden staircase. The sturdy commonhold is very well maintained: the roof and the communal areas have both been recently renovated.

The 32.12-m² apartment, on the 5th floor, is made up of two main rooms. The entrance leads to a shower room, including a shower, a washbasin on a wooden cabinet and a lavatory, and then to an approximately 16-m² living room adjacent to an open-plan and fitted kitchen, equipped with a dishwasher, washing machine, induction plates, extractor hood and fridge/freezer. The east-facing lounge boasts three openings, two of which are French windows. Following it, an almost 12-m², south-facing corner bedroom with three French windows opens onto an 8.56-m² continuous balcony that enjoys uninterrupted views over the district’s roofs, from the Tour Saint-Jacques tower, past the columns of the Louvre and its square courtyard, to the dome of the Mazarine Library and bell tower of Saint-Germain-des-Prés church further away on the left bank of the River Seine. The moulded cornices, 2.84-metre ceiling height and the chevron-patterned wood strip flooring provide the property with plenty of character. The layout optimises every single bit of space and the apartment, which is in very good condition, can be moved into right away.
