Description
18th-century property with ground floor that can be converted into a second residence
LOCATION
Situated in the old town of Orbe, this unique property is set in a historic environment, just a few steps from the town center’s amenities. The property benefits from a particularly well-preserved setting, in the heart of an old quarter that is appreciated for its authenticity and architecture.
Built in the 18th century, this important patrician building has survived the ages while retaining a remarkable architectural identity, which is now enhanced by several recent renovations.
DESCRIPTION
With a living area of approximately 345 m², the property immediately impresses with its volumes, ceiling height, and the quality of the original features that have been preserved over the years.
The lower level has its own independent access and currently houses spaces used in a professional setting. This configuration allows for the operation of an independent business as well as the creation of a separate living space or a space for family gatherings. The existing layout offers great flexibility for future needs.
The main living areas occupy the noble floor of the house. The original materials are central to the design with solid parquet flooring, old wood paneling, several decorative fireplaces and a remarkable catle stove dating from the time of construction.
The kitchen and reception areas have been designed to respect the character of the building while incorporating a modern level of comfort. Several large rooms can be used in different ways depending on your needs: living rooms, library, office, or extra bedrooms.
The upper floors still offer interesting potential with a bedroom that has its own bathroom as well as large volumes under the roof. A large workshop and the attic space allow for various additional conversions such as a leisure area or additional bedrooms.
