Regal splendour

At the heart of the prestigious Walter buildings near the Ranelagh Gardens in the 16th arrondissement, there nestles an unusual, inverted duplex apartment, designed as a family home.

The charm of a family residence combined with the advantages of a luxury apartment.

In the entrance gallery, one is struck by a magnificent marble staircase with exceptional gilding in “Versailles” style. Around this grand feature, the mezzanine overlooks a superb drawing-room, inviting sunlight to flood in. Four large bedrooms, three bathrooms, a spa area with a sauna and hammam, plus a fully fitted walk-in closet, comprise this first level. At garden level, a vast sitting-room of 807 sq.ft. is full of light thanks to its huge windows facing south-west, opening out entirely to the garden. The eyes are caught by decor worthy of Marie-Antoinette’s Golden Cabinet: richly gilded walls, a magnificent herringbone parquet floor, and an impressive ceiling height of almost 24 ft. This floor also proposes a second sitting-room with a desk and fireplace, a convivial dining-room, another bedroom with an adjoining shower room, and a fully equipped fitness room. A modern eat-in kitchen completed by a utility room, cold room and secure wine cellar hosting 350 bottles completes these exceptional appointments.

A gem of Art Deco

Outside, a private garden of 420 sq.m awaits discovery. “One of the largest in the area,” says Alexandra Leca, Manageress of the Vaneau Auteuil-Passy agency. Unique enough to be emphasized, this garden lies next to that of the former home of Jean Walter. The architect to be credited for this amazing property in Art Deco style, built between 1928 and 1931, is one of whose buildings with a freshly renovated facade plays host to this outstanding split-level apartment.

Offering living space of 4,520 sq.ft. (with ceiling heights of at least 5.90 ft.), it is also embellished by renovation of very high quality, using noble materials exalting the elegance of the various spaces. A private elevator, air conditioning, and last-generation home automation ensure comfort and practicality. The property is completed by an adjoining staff bedroom and a large double box-garage of 312 sq.ft., precious advantages in this sought-after neighborhood in Paris. “With its generous volumes and undeniable stylishness, this unique property combines the charm of a family residence with the advantages of a luxury apartment,” says Alexandra Leca. “It is hard not to fall in love with it completely.
