Aquitaine, Pyrénées-Atlantiques, Ciboure, France

Facing the port of Ciboure, this duplex apartment is located in one of the most sought-after areas. Close to the market halls, shops, restaurants, and the historic center of Saint-Jean-de-Luz, its location allows you to fully enjoy a lifestyle where everything is within walking distance. From the quays, the colorful facades echo the boats moored in the port, creating an iconic panorama of the Basque coast. A vibrant and authentic environment, where maritime heritage and a relaxed lifestyle naturally converge.

With a living area of approximately 175 sqm, this duplex apartment immediately captivates with its unique architecture. The generous proportions, high ceilings, exposed beams, and open spaces create a living environment where each level flows seamlessly into the next. From the entrance, your gaze is naturally drawn to the port. The living room takes center stage, opening onto the panoramic view. Extending from it, the dining room flows into the living area before leading to the fully fitted and equipped kitchen. This succession of spaces creates a particularly fluid flow, without ever breaking the connection with the outdoors. The renovation has preserved the character of the place. Contemporary materials blend with the original features in an elegant balance, while the numerous windows diffuse pleasant light throughout the day. The master suite, complete with a dressing room and a private bathroom, completes this first level. The upper floor reveals the apartment's true originality. Organized like a mezzanine overlooking the reception areas, it multiplies the perspectives. From the office, the eye takes in both the harbor and the living room. The bright landing overlooks the dining room and kitchen, reinforcing this feeling of spaciousness and continuity between the two levels. Three additional bedrooms are nestled under the exposed beams, along with a bathroom and a second shower room. Each benefits from the warm atmosphere created by the original beams and the open space under the eaves. From most rooms, the surrounding landscape naturally becomes part of everyday life. The sailboats, quays, and facades of Saint-Jean-de-Luz create a vibrant panorama that complements the different spaces without ever being intrusive.

Rare in its design, this apartment is distinguished not only by its harbor view. Its duplex architecture, open volumes, exposed beams, and the multiple perspectives between the different spaces give it a unique character. A warm and atypical living space, where each level maintains a constant dialogue with the seascape, in a subtle balance of character, comfort, and elegance.
