With a private garden in a private footpath, this real house with private garden, surrounded by 10 houses with private gardens in a diverse, progressive community of liberal workers, writers, high civil servants and entrepreneurs, stays hidden in a passage whose 19th arrondissement has the secret, with a secured access by digital code.
Built on 3 levels, the house has a floor area of « living space » 105 sq m and « Carrez law space » of 87 sq m (see below *) and consists of a living room, an equipped kitchen, opening onto a veranda or winter garden which can be used as a dining room.
Upstairs, two bedrooms, one with great height, library and converted attic, mezzanine, a bathroom with WC. This floor is also ideal for a private office, and liberal activities are allowed in this property.
On the lower « English basement » floor, a 3rd bedroom with bathroom and WC (we used this floor as the detached parental suite; can also suit a kids floor / a teenager etc).
A Garden with trees and roses of 41 sq m, with a ancient iron pergola, welcomes you to the house.
Built at the turn of last century with re-used materials of the Paris 1900 Universal ‘Expo’, on the land of an earlier 18th century ‘Folie’ that still welcomes the visitor on the main streets, the house is a testimony of urban history.
Calm and light, highly sought-after setting.
All the shops of the Jourdain village nearby, easy transport and access, close to the Buttes-Chaumont scenic park that is a marvel to kids and grownups, the thrice a week local market has all products within 100m.
(The house can come with a reasonable renting access to a local secured parking place, owned by a neighbor.)
Energy: electricity; easily connectable to city gas; the garden has all space for a heat pump.
CO2 Emission Factor: B ; Energy Consumption: E (easily movable to D with very minor fixtures)
Rare for sale.
* « Carrez Law » removes some space around doors, stairs, and spaces below 1.80 m height. It normally does not apply to independent houses, as these spaces do not make sense to the Carrez Law. However, it applies when these have an access to a joint-managed (« copropriété » space), which is the case as we have a 15 houses jointly maaged private alley.
In this house case, the Mezzanine, though Functional (perfect for beeding of a study desk, storage etc.), sees its 18 sq m facially discounted.
