Architect-renovated duplex with gardens and parking in the heart of royal Senlis

Senlis is one of the best-preserved historic towns in northern France. It is a former royal city where Hugues Capet was elected king in 987, with a Gothic cathedral, Gallo-Roman walls and cobbled streets. The town sits within the Oise-Pays de France regional nature park, surrounded by the forests of Halatte, Chantilly and Ermenonville, yet only 40 km north of Paris.

This architect-renovated duplex occupies the top floor of a 16th-century building in the protected old town. It offers 90 m² (Carrez) and 103 m² of floor space, combining ancient oak beams with contemporary design: a steel-framed glazed partition, a floating staircase and glass balustrades.

The entrance hall, with storage, leads to a bright 25 m² living and dining room with oak flooring and dormer windows offering superb views across Senlis. The 16 m² fitted kitchen has a breakfast bar. A utility room for the washing machine and dryer, a separate WC and a shower room complete this level.

The bedroom has a cathedral ceiling with exposed beams and a floating staircase rising to a mezzanine of 13 m² floor space with glass balustrade. The mezzanine works as a second sleeping area, a study or both. A storage attic provides extra space.

Outside, residents share large, secure gardens behind automatic gates, a rare asset in a town centre. The sale includes a private outdoor parking space and a cellar. The building is a small condominium of five owners with no service charges.
