Full Description
In the imperial city of Fontainebleau, a 19th-century family home with garden. With shared walls on either side, the house protects a back garden sheltered from view and facing southeast. Constructed over a basement level, the house has three floors, the last of which is built into the attic space and represents a living area of approximately 180 m².
The gabled roof, covered in slate and recently redone, has a dormer window with a triangular pediment on the street side and, on the garden side, three skylights. The northwest façade, on the street side, is clad in red brick and decorated with cast-iron tiebacks, while the garden-side façade is covered in white plaster. Located on the left side of the façade, the original blue-painted wooden front door is topped with a glazed fanlight protected by a wrought-iron scroll-pattern grille and framed by Fontainebleau limestone casing crowned with a keystone. The large double-glazed windows that punctuate the façade are aligned into three vertical rows and protected by white louvred wooden shutters as well as wrought-iron scroll-patterned guardrails. Lastly, moulded stringcourses, cornices and window surrounds add a touch of elegance to the whole.
