Beautiful apartment of 165 m2 Carrez and 181 m2 living space on the noble floor (1st floor) of a historic mansion built in 1705 by Louis XIV for Madame de Maintenon, whom he secretly married after the queen’s death. Located 200 meters from the Palace of Versailles, in the heart of the Notre Dame district, close to the market square and shopping streets. The apartment (which includes the alcove bedroom and the boudoir of Madame de Maintenon) consists of 4 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 2 entrances, a hallway (or game room), a dining room, a main kitchen and an American kitchen, 2 luxurious bathrooms and 2 shower rooms, 4 toilets. The reception rooms are interconnected and can also extend to the two main bedrooms to create a vast reception area. A very spacious vaulted cellar and an interior attic complete this property. High ceilings, ”Versailles” parquet flooring, woodwork, fireplaces, moldings, interior shutters, all original and identical to the second floor of the Palace of Versailles. Luxuriously renovated in the style of the era with all modern comforts discreetly concealed (such as the six large televisions embedded within tapestry frames). No visible plumbing, excellent individual gas heating. The building has been recently renovated both inside and out, so the common areas are impeccable, the roof has been redone, and the insulation is particularly good for an 18th-century building with an energy category D. Quiet one-way street. East/West crossing apartment enjoying sunlight throughout the day. Thanks to its two distinct external entrances, the property is designed to function as 2 separate apartments, one of 70 m² and the other of 95 m², completely independent of each other (it is easy to block the passage that connects them). Therefore, there is also the possibility for liberal professions (allowed in the building) to have a residential apartment and a professional apartment that are interconnected. Sale furnished possible. Ongoing procedures that do not impact the buyer. At the owner’s request, a piece of identification will be required before any visit.
