Rhone Alps, Rhône, Lyon, France

Step inside... and discover a world of timeless elegance.
In the heart of Lyon's prestigious Presqu'île, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, just moments from Place Bellecour and the iconic Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière, this distinguished neighbourhood embodies the very essence of the French art de vivre: architectural heritage, exceptional gastronomy, exclusive boutiques and a vibrant cultural scene.
Soaring ceilings, exquisite period mouldings, marble fireplaces, elegant double doors and traditional Hungarian point parquet flooring... Every hallmark of refined Haussmannian architecture is beautifully preserved in this magnificent dual-aspect apartment.
Occupying the second floor -- historically the étage noble, the most prestigious level, once reserved for the aristocracy and affluent bourgeoisie -- this remarkable residence exudes timeless sophistication and historical character.
Contemporary comforts blend seamlessly with its period grandeur: a beautifully appointed modern kitchen with a central island, reversible air conditioning and lift access directly serving the apartment.
The sole residence on its floor, it offers a rare sense of privacy and independence -- more akin to a private townhouse than an apartment. A home entirely your own.
Thoughtfully designed to balance entertaining and private family life, the property features two distinct living areas.
Overlooking a remarkably peaceful street, the reception wing comprises an entrance hall, a study and an impressive sequence of interconnected reception rooms extending over 80 sqm, encompassing the living room, dining room and kitchen. This elegant space leads to two bedrooms, including the principal suite with its private bathroom.
Overlooking the inner courtyard, the remaining bedrooms and their respective shower rooms provide a secluded and tranquil retreat.
A beautiful vaulted cellar, an attic and a private indoor garage with an electrically operated door and secure access complete this exceptional offering.
