19th century house on the banks of the Marne

Perched on the peaceful heights of the Marne River in Créteil, this 19th-century mansion overlooks the Marne River in a secluded green setting. Inhabited for several decades by a family committed to the art of living and authenticity, this unique place combines the charm of an old building with carefully chosen contemporary features.

Behind its stone walls, a world apart opens up, bathed in light and tranquility, just a few steps from Créteil Village.

Spread over three levels, the house offers 186 m² of living space, structured around generous volumes and open views to the outdoors.

On the ground floor, the heart of the house beats to the rhythm of a fluid and luminous living space. The living room, bathed in natural light, gently opens onto a dining room conducive to shared moments. The whole space extends harmoniously towards a discreet terrace, like an outdoor room, ideal for quiet mornings or long evenings. On the same level, a spacious kitchen where the outdoors invites you in at every moment, offering a striking perspective of the surrounding landscapes. A unique relaxation area, equipped with a sauna, punctuates the ground floor with a touch of exclusive comfort, a true haven of tranquility in the heart of the house. A bedroom with a private bathroom and a separate toilet complete this level.

Upstairs, two additional bedrooms facing the banks of the Marne, a light-filled office, and a bathroom create a sleeping area conducive to calm and contemplation.

The garden level offers a more intimate, almost self-contained space. A space that can be used as an office or a peaceful bedroom sits alongside a practical laundry room, providing direct access to the garden, inviting a simple indoor-outdoor lifestyle. This level, designed as a separate space, could easily accommodate a teenager seeking independence, an artist's studio, or visiting guests. A wine cellar completes the additional spaces, ideal for lovers of the art of living, as well as a workshop.

The noble materials, the high ceilings, the period architectural details, and the serene atmosphere give the property a timeless character.

The terraced garden, combining flowerbeds and large, protective trees, forms a rare green cocoon in an urban area. An exterior suspended between city and nature.

Local shops, renowned schools, and public transport within walking distance complete a living environment that is both practical and preserved.

This house, with its strong personality and heritage, will appeal to those seeking an unusual, harmonious living space deeply rooted in its history.
