The Luxury of Urban Intimacy in the Fortified City
Welcome to 11 Rue de la Balance. What makes this apartment unique is its entrance: a "Courtesy Garden". This small planted space between the street and your window creates natural distance.
You don't face directly onto the sidewalk, you face greenery. A rarity that preserves your privacy at the heart of the historic district.
A Bourgeois Apartment
Roaring Twenties
Located on the ground floor of a 1920s character building, "L'Écrin d'Ambre" (46 m²) has been completely renovated by local artisans to marry period charm with absolute comfort.
The Interior Experience
The Cocoon Living Room
It's a warm and intimate room. Its single large window offers a soothing view of your private garden.
With its restored original parquet floor and marble fireplace (decorative), it's the ideal place to read or relax in peace.
The Glass Partition Suite
For the sleeping area, we created a custom structure. A white workshop-style glass partition separates the bedroom from the hallway, allowing light to pass through while creating a bubble of softness.
Queen Size bed 160x190, premium hotel bedding.
Connecting Kitchen
Located in the extension of the living room, the kitchen offers the best of both worlds. It's a true dedicated room (not a kitchen corner in the living room), but its doorless opening allows free circulation and staying connected with your loved ones.
New and fully equipped: Oven, Dishwasher, Nespresso.
The "Spa" Bathroom
The apartment's highlight! An immense 9m² room with an XXL walk-in shower, designed for total relaxation after your rampart walks.
Contemporary design with wood screen, suspended sink, and high-end finishes.
