Bourgeois elegance in the heart of historic carcassonne
Set within the streets of Bastide Saint-Louis, the historic centre of Carcassonne, this character apartment offers approximately 221 m2 of living space within a period building. It stands out for its generous proportions, architectural features, and its prime location in the heart of the town centre.
Just a short walk from Place Carnot, the lively focal point of Bastide Saint-Louis, and close to cafés, shops, and the town’s weekly markets, the apartment enjoys a highly desirable setting.
It offers a pleasant lifestyle surrounded by the atmosphere and heritage of historic Carcassonne.
Architecture and period features
From the moment you enter, the apartment reveals the elegant proportions typical of classic bourgeois residences, with generous volumes and high ceilings.
Herringbone parquet floors bring warmth and continuity throughout the interior. Several marble fireplaces structure the rooms and serve as striking decorative features. Tall windows enhance the sense of space and natural light, while some rooms display decorative ceiling mouldings. Certain windows also incorporate delicate stained-glass details, adding further character and charm.
The sitting room is particularly notable for its richly sculpted decorative fireplace, adorned with ceramic elements and figurative motifs evoking dragons and cherubs, a distinctive feature that gives the room a unique sense of character.
Reception rooms
The apartment is organised around a generous central hallway that leads to the various reception rooms, creating a natural and elegant flow throughout the space.
The principal living room, beautifully bright thanks to its large windows, offers impressive proportions and retains all the charm of a classic bourgeois interior, with herringbone parquet flooring, a marble fireplace with overmantel mirror, decorative moldings and high ceilings.
Adjoining this room, a second sitting room is centred around a distinctive decorative fireplace with ornamental detailing, giving the space a unique character.
Two separate offices further enhance the layout and provide excellent flexibility for remote work or additional living space. From one of these offices, there is access to a dedicated library, offering a quieter and more intimate setting, ideal for reading or study The rooms currently used as offices could be used as additional bedrooms depending on individual requirements and configuration preferences.
Bedrooms and private spaces
The apartment currently offers two generously sized bedrooms, each providing a calm and elegant setting.
The principal bedroom features a marble fireplace and large windows that allow for plenty of natural light. The second bedroom, also spacious, retains the charm of classic parquet flooring and comfortable proportions.
The bedrooms share a bathroom with both bathtub and shower, while an additional separate WC adds everyday practicality.
Kitchen and daily living
The separate kitchen, generously sized, forms a room in its own right within the apartment. It provides a comfortable space for preparing meals and can easily accommodate a small dining area for everyday use.
A discreet area dedicated to the laundry and boiler completes the space and adds practical functionality.
Storage spaces
One of the apartment’s many advantages is the presence of ample storage throughout the property, offering practical everyday convenience.
A corridor fitted with built-in cupboards and dressing areas provides substantial storage capacity, complemented by additional cupboards distributed throughout the apartment.
The property also benefits from additional storage spaces, including a cellar and an independent room, further enhancing its functionality.
Together, these features contribute to a well-organised and practical living environment while maintaining the apartment’s elegant character.
Balcony and additional spaces
A balcony of approximately 6 m2, overlooking the building’s courtyard, provides a pleasant and peaceful outdoor space.
The apartment also benefits from several additional features, including a private cellar, an independent room, and access to a shared courtyard.
These spaces complement the apartment and offer valuable practical convenience in the heart of the historic centre.
Modern comfort
While preserving its historic character, the apartment benefits from modern amenities, including:
• fiber-optic internet
• central gas heating with a boiler system
• radiators throughout the apartment
Furniture is not included in the sale but may be discussed separately.
The current layout also offers interesting potential for further reconfiguration. Close to the library, there is an existing water connection, which could potentially allow for the creation of an additional bathroom. Combined with the adjacent office, this area could be reimagined to form a private suite, offering the possibility of a third bedroom with its own bathroom.
