Maison à vendre, 320m², Amiens

Description

Located on a quay overlooking the Somme River, this peaceful property features a former industrial building, enclosed by a garden of nearly 300 m² with a patio and central lawn. As for the dwelling, a refurbished former salt warehouse, with approximately 320 m² of floor area, it has been converted into a contemporary loft with immense open spaces spread out over 1.5 floors, including two living rooms, a dining room, a kitchen, two studies, three large bedrooms, including the principal suite, as well as a self-contained studio with its own independent access from the entryway. The Loft The dwelling’s one-storey white façade and hipped roof reveal nothing of the loft’s scale from the quay, while the property is sheltered from view thanks to a wood fence, extending on from the dwelling and topped with vegetation. The ground floor An entryway provides access to an immense open living area, whose ceiling is supported by white posts, which cadence the space and define its different areas, while its wide-plank parquet floors, painted a deep chestnut colour, showcase the loft’s modern aesthetic. Bathed in ample light thanks to a large-paned atelier window, with a black metal frame, the open kitchen, directly opposite, contains a black granite and pale wood central island. Extending on from here, an initial central living room features a rear dining area with overhead lighting as well as an overall floral atmosphere thanks to a minimalist, Henri Matisse-style fresco, while a second sitting room, adjacent to the first, is organised around a dark metal fireplace integrated within the staircase that leads to a glassed-in mezzanine above. Set back from the staircase are the entrances to the utility room and cellar, whereas near the kitchen, the wooden main staircase, painted white, provides access to the upstairs floor. Past the staircase, the ground-floor main bedroom faces both the garden and patio and includes a sleeping area, cupboards and an adjacent bathroom. The intermediate level A glassed-in mezzanine, accessible from the second staircase on the ground floor and overlooking the living room, creates a half-level, divided into two immense and sunny studies, which also provides access to the first floor. The first floor Accessible from the main staircase, it features a long hallway with built-in cupboards and painted parquet floors, which provides access, on either end, two bedrooms located under the eaves. Each comes with its own bathroom, while an independent studio is only accessible from the loft’s entrance hall via a separate staircase. Featuring a large living room, which includes a sleeping area, this studio also comes with a small kitchen as well as a bathroom. The Garden Featuring a lawn scattered with a number of shrubs and tall trees, two teak patios represent ideal spaces for relaxing on deckchairs or eating dinner under the stars.
