iad France - Marc Lauret presents: In Saint-Denis, Butor / Saint-Jacques district - ”LA KOUR BELLON”: A UNIQUE URBAN AND COMMERCIAL HERITAGE COMPLEX
History to revive, Prestige to claim
Ideally located at the crossroads of ambitions for a nationally significant eco-district (PRUNEL Project - 140 million euros in public investment), discover an exceptional historic property. Former late 19th-century manor house that housed generations of the public Butor nursery school, this legendary estate offers a rare configuration on the market, perfect for a very high-end mixed-use project (luxury residential, institutional offices, hospitality, or prestigious retail).
A Rare Double-Access Through Plot (1,345 m²)
In the heart of Saint-Denis city center, space is the ultimate luxury. This estate extends over a magnificent fully through plot served by two strategic streets: the bustling commercial area at the lower end of rue du Maréchal Leclerc on one side, and a more discreet access via rue Henri Vavasseur on the other.
The Architectural Complex: 3 Major Components to Renovate
The land hosts a group of character buildings to restore and refresh, offering superb adaptable volumes:
1. The Central Creole House – Elegance on 3 Levels (245 m² living space)
Proudly built over a cellar and crawl space, this main residence with R+1 + attic layout displays Creole spirit in all its splendor. It offers an ideal bourgeois layout, requiring restoration and modernization work (roof, bathrooms, general refresh):
On the Ground Floor: A large living room, a formal dining room, a kitchen, one bedroom, a bathroom with separate WC. Outdoor living is celebrated with two terraces and a beautiful veranda.
On the Upper Floor: A sleeping area with four spacious bedrooms, a bathroom with WC, and an inspiring workspace arranged as an office-veranda.
Under the Roof: A large convertible attic and a void under the roof offering potential for surface extension or creation of attic suites.
2. The Southeast Side Longhouse – The Economic Hub (120 m² usable covered area)
Directly facing the commercial axis of rue Maréchal Leclerc, this longhouse is a strategic asset with high added value:
- Two professional spaces: a ground-level commercial space opening onto the street and an office space, perfect for a premium brand or headquarters. - A private extension: an additional room currently being fitted out, directly connected to the main residence.
3. The Northeast Side Longhouse & Annexes (79 m² usable)
Located on rue Henri Vavasseur, it offers total independence and includes:
- A large storage room functionally attached to the main house. - An independent studio to be fully renovated, ideal for high-end seasonal rental, a caretaker, or guest space. - Annex: An additional longhouse storage room on the west side, also to be renovated, perfect for storage or an artist’s workshop.
A Tax Optimization Lever for Savvy Investors (ABF / Udp Zone)
Located within the protection perimeter of the Architect of the Buildings of France (ABF) and benefiting from the dynamic Udp zone, this property is a top-tier tax opportunity. The volume of rehabilitation work required (roof, electricity, longhouses and studio fitting) offers a great vehicle for property deficit or heritage tax exemption schemes, allowing significant tax reductions while creating major capital gains in the future PRUNEL eco-district.
Key Points:
- Land: 1,345 m² through plot - Double access via Leclerc & Vavasseur. - Creole House: 245 m² living space (5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, office, verandas, cellar, and attic). - Outbuildings: 2 longhouses + annexes (~200 m² additional including commercial, offices, and studio to renovate). Total built area: ~460 m² mixed-use. - Condition: High potential, significant restoration and refresh work needed. - Authenticity: Late 19th-century Creole villa, original parquet floors, century-old tree. - Tax Opportunity: Immediate proximity to a heritage zone offering strong tax exemption prospects linked to renovation work. - Neighborhood: Immediate integration into the PRUNEL eco-district (guaranteed future capital gain).
