TWO CHARACTERFUL HOMES, A PROPERTY WITH MANY POSSIBILITIES

In the heart of La Chapelle-Saint-Ursin, just a short walk from shops and the school, this property complex—comprising two adjoining historic homes—offers exciting possibilities for those who wish to combine living and working, accommodate a loved one with complete independence, or envision a large family home after renovation.

The main house charms with its exposed-stone architecture, its open floor plan spread across several levels, and the period features that give it a unique character. Accessible via a few steps, the main level is organized around an entryway leading to a fully equipped kitchen—which could use some updating—that opens onto a raised terrace with access to the garden via a stone staircase.

The dining room, featuring an open fireplace, opens onto a living room with warm hardwood floors, and then onto a first bedroom that also has hardwood floors and a decorative fireplace. A few steps up, a half-landing houses a bathroom, a separate toilet, and an office area. Upstairs, a landing area suitable for various uses leads to two additional bedrooms.

Downstairs, a workshop—also accessible from the garden—opens onto a spacious garage facing the street, which extends into a large cellar. A second cellar rounds out the auxiliary spaces of this home.

Adjacent to this main house, a second historic building—previously used as a commercial space—further enhances the possibilities of this property. Currently spanning approximately 60 m², it requires renovation and a reorganization of its spaces. Its potential for remodeling could increase its living area to nearly 90 m² after the work is completed. The property line runs along the side of this second house.

This layout offers several design possibilities. The first involves maintaining two distinct spaces: the residence on one side and, on the other, a space suitable for a private practice. This is an attractive solution for working in the immediate vicinity of one’s home while maintaining a separation between personal and professional life. The second building could also, after the necessary renovations, be converted to accommodate a parent or close relative, allowing them to live nearby while preserving everyone’s privacy and independence.

Finally, combining the two buildings—subject to remodeling and reconfiguration of the spaces—would allow for the creation of a single, large home with approximately 170 m² of living space, offering more room and flexibility for family life.

Outside, the property sits on a lot of over 750 m².

The property requires some refurbishment and renovation work, some of which has already been started but not completed.

The main house nevertheless features desirable amenities, including city gas heating, and the entire property has a good energy efficiency rating.

Thanks to its central location, the character of its main residence, and the versatility of its second building, this property offers the freedom to envision different lifestyle plans. Whether you’re looking to bring several generations together, combine your home with your professional activities, or create a spacious family home, everyone can imagine a new layout tailored to their needs.

A distinctive property complex whose diverse spaces and potential for adaptation are well worth a visit to fully appreciate all its possibilities.
