A Modern Apartment On The 4th Floor Of An Art Deco Building, In Between The Marais, Saint Merri

A modern apartment on the 4th floor of an Art Deco building, In between the Marais, Saint-Merri and Beaubourg districts. The seven-storey building was originally built in the 1930s for office space but the use of its top three floors changed approximately ten years ago. The Art Deco façade is typical of the early 20th century, thanks to its symmetry, wide and almost square openings, large-paned windows and the geometrical patterns of its sober and straight decorative features. The property is on the fourth level, where a bow-window occupying the three central bays interrupts the uniformity of the façade as well as enlarging the interior. The central lines of the pilasters separating the five bays are highlighted by pink rendering while the rest of the facade is white. The main entrance - a large, double-leaf glazed door with period ironwork - is situated on the right of the building.

The apartment is the only one on the fifth level and can be reached by a large staircase and spacious elevator. The entrance door opens directly into a large, 60-m² living room. One of its sides is entirely occupied by windows and the light-coloured oak flooring contrasts slightly with the white walls and ceiling. A fitted kitchen with natural wood fittings matching the flooring opens out onto the living room. Two bedrooms, each with a walk-in wardrobe and en suite shower room with lavatory, open into the lounge separated by a frosted glass sliding door system, which makes it possible to obtain a feeling of increased volume or close the bedrooms for privacy. The 16-m² master bedroom stands at one end of the apartment. It has a 10-metre wide walk-in wardrobe and a large, almost 12-m² bathroom with a lavatory. Heating is provided by a reversible heat exchange pump, which provides air conditioning in the summer.
