Full Description
Situated in the heart of the delightful village of Macau, just 25 minutes from Bordeaux, this superb town house built in 1874 is listed on the French General Inventory of Cultural Heritage.
Restored to 80% contemporary proportions, combining modern materials and respect for the architectural rules of the time, this historic residence is an ode to prestige.
Its richly sculpted Napoleon Iii façade, punctuated by five French windows with triangular pediments and brackets, and topped by an attic balustrade, is an instant attraction.
Here, luxury also means space and silence.
The magnificent 40m² roof-top offers 360-degree views, without any noise or visual disturbance. You can prepare your favourite drinks there from its fully-equipped kitchenette.
The ground floor is beautifully laid out around the vestibule, where you'll be greeted by remarkable period tiles in monochrome Maubeuge stoneware cement. A living room and a sitting room, with their respective marble fireplaces, face the square. The designer kitchen, fitted with Gaggenau equipment and Corian worktops, has its own access to the alleyway. Finally, a library with attractive panelled walls invites you to refocus.
Ideal for a professional activity, this property lends itself just as well to the rejuvenating function of a comfortable home!
Spread over two floors, three bedrooms, including a suite, a second shower room and a bathroom, as well as an ultra-spacious living room confirm the elegance and refinement of the property and its cleverly offbeat spirit. From the balconies with their cast-iron railings, you can gaze out over the heart of the village.
Impeccable parquet flooring and finishes, mains gas central heating, air conditioning, aluminium double glazing and advanced home automation (rain-sensing velux windows, centrally-operated roller shutters and connected hi-fi system). A double garage with a utility kitchen opening onto the rear street and an 800-bottle wine cellar complete this property perfectly!
The station, shops and public services are all within walking distance. The Route des Châteaux is just waiting for you...
Golf courses and equestrian centres are less than twenty minutes away. Mérignac airport is 30 minutes away and the ocean 55 minutes.
