A 19th Century House, With An Ornamental Garden, Swimming Pool And Garages, In Périgueux, In A

A 19th-century house, with an ornamental garden, swimming pool and garages, in Périgueux, in a residential neighbourhood. This slate-roofed, ashlar-built house is located on a residential street and stands out from the surrounding buildings thanks to its eclectic architecture drawn from a range of inspirations. The street-facing façade displays classical-style mouldings, such as the bosses that form trompe-l’oeil quoins, as if the house had a central protruding section. This symmetrical feature is enhanced by a denticulated cornice, a dormer with an arched pediment that sits atop the façade and the mouldings decorating the finely crafted corbelled balcony. The elevation is also decorated with Renaissance style elements such as chamfers and transoms. On the garden side of the house, the architect gave a free reign to his imagination by adding a gallery and gabled dormers, as well as a hexagonal corner tower topped by a weathervane. On both sides, the elevations possess several rectangular windows of various sizes. To the rear, a garden sheltered from view contains a patio and a large swimming pool.
