Contemporary house with garden near Villejuif

At the end of a private driveway, this architect-designed house with 2,040 square feet of living space and 3,250 square feet of floor space is nestled in a peaceful, green setting, surrounded by granite, palm trees and a Mediterranean atmosphere. Here, you immediately feel like you are somewhere else, even though you are in Vitry-sur-Seine, on the plateau, a few steps from Villejuif.

From the very first glance, the care taken with the exterior catches the eye. Light granite paving stones, mood lighting and structured vegetation create a soberly elegant setting. The house, built in 2008 and remarkably well maintained, asserts a strong architectural identity, where every detail has been designed to create a dialogue between materials and light.

A few steps lead to a covered porch before revealing a spectacular living area. Bathed in natural light and enhanced by a double height of over six metres, it is organised around a lounge, dining room and open-plan kitchen. The common thread running through this refined atmosphere is the contrast between warm oak wood and Corten steel, which can be found from the floor to the built-in furniture. A 3D relief wall, a veritable vertical sculpture, captures the low-angled light and gives the space a rare sensory depth. Outside, the terrace opens onto an intimate landscaped garden, bordered by bamboo and graphic plants, in natural continuity with the living room. This level is completed by a shower room, separate toilets and a laundry room. It is worth noting that a bedroom could be created here if required.

A discreet staircase leads to the upper floor, where a suspended landing overlooks the main room and offers a new perspective on its volumes. Three bedrooms are harmoniously distributed: one has a dressing room, another has a playful mezzanine, and the third has a built-in cupboard. An elegant bathroom and separate toilet complete this sleeping area.

The basement is suitable for all kinds of uses. A spacious garage easily accommodates a utility vehicle, ideal for a craft business. A workshop area, a storage area and a heated room with a window, perfect for an office or a gym, offer versatility.

In terms of everyday life, the house enjoys a privileged location: schools, shops, tram and metro are all within walking distance. The Louis Aragon metro station is about a ten-minute walk away.

A discreet property, designed down to the smallest detail as a fluid and elegant living space, where the architecture perfectly combines light and family comfort.
