Duplex Apartment of Approximately 240m², 6 Rooms, 4 Bedrooms in the City Centre

Property Description

Discover this exceptional duplex of approximately 240m², comprising 6 rooms, including 4 bedrooms (3 suites with shower rooms and bathrooms), a spacious living/dining room of approximately 48m² with a skylight, and an open-plan, fitted and equipped kitchen. A balcony overlooks the Bastide district. Located in the city center, this elegant apartment with its high ceilings and views of the medieval citadel is situated in one of Carcassonne's most beautiful buildings. Typical of late 19th-century urban architecture, it transitions from Neo-Renaissance to Flamboyant Gothic. Its attic, the building's crowning feature, showcases a series of oculi (small circular windows) set within a richly decorated frieze adorned with sculpted motifs, characteristic of the Italian Renaissance, reinterpreted in the 19th century. On the second floor of the building, we also find mullioned windows with their slender columns and segmental arches. Returning to the apartment's layout, there is an entrance hall leading to the living areas, the staircase to the second floor, a storage room (formerly a photographer's darkroom), a laundry room, and three toilets. Each bedroom/suite is equipped with built-in wardrobes. Part of a 17-unit condominium, five of which are residential, the property includes a private garage and two cellars. Individual gas heating with relatively recent boilers (two years old) and air conditioning ensure optimal comfort. The apartment is accessible by stairs or elevator. Floor plans are available upon request.
