Paris-Isle of France, Yvelines, Poissy

Fabulous opportunity to invest in a stunning property dating from 1898, classified as a listed building , a maison historique ISMH, built by a former pupil and follower of the famous architect Baron Eugène Haussmann, with well maintained, mature parkland of approximately 5 hectares.

Situated in the centre of the grounds, the mansion house has an impressive 390m2 comprising of 3 reception rooms, 7 bedrooms, 1 office/library, 4 bathrooms, a dining kitchen, games room , laundry room, wine cellars, and plenty storage areas.. At the entrance we find the original gatekeeper's cottage needing renovation. Cottage only in name because this house is in fact 244 m² (2,444 sq ft) of which 152 m² (1,922 sq ft) will be habitable. The stables for 2 horses are still in place with a garage and attic of 85 m² (860 sq ft), ( scope for renovating/ creating more livable space) also a former orangery, a small prayer chapel and a rockery with its own grotto, which is typical of the parklands of this era. There is a ready made sports ground for tennis, basket ball etc already in place.

The house has a lot of character and cachet with its Mansard tiled roof. It has been tastefully renovated with style and thoughtfulness, it still has many of its old charming elements such as herringbone parquet flooring, the mouldings, woodwork, ceiling rose, fireplaces and stained glass windows, which give it an undeniable authentic cachet. Moreover, the bathrooms, and kitchen have been renovated to the latest standards of contemporary comfort, as have the plumbing and the entire electrical network.

A garden level offers a games room, storage rooms, cellars, a laundry room and a boiler room (oil-fired forced air boiler) as well as a jacuzzi.

On the ground floor, there is an entrance hall, the reception rooms with a living room, sitting room and a large dining room opening onto the south-facing outdoor terrace. You will also find the kitchen and a guest WC.

On the 1st floor: four bedrooms including 2 bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms and 2 bedrooms with a shared Jack and Jill bathroom. There are 2 separate WC's for this floor.

On the second floor there is a study/library,(or 8th bedroom) three bedrooms, a shower room, WC and attic space.

The main house is in good general condition following the renovations carried out by the current owners, but as is often the case with this type of property, constant maintenance is required and some refurbishment will be necessary. The Garden level still needs to be updated, leaving you room to put your own personal stamp on this property. There's plenty of room to install a professional kitchen, if you're planning a wedding or conference centre. For a family a cinema room, boot room, gym can all be envisaged for this level.

The outbuildings, particularly the Gatekeeper's house, require major renovation works and cannot be lived in as they stand.

The house has a good southern and western exposure and offers various views over the grounds its English-style parklands and its driveways, lined with various types of century-old trees including Beech, Ash, Chestnut trees , some of which are nearly 300 years old, arranged around the large lawns. The fully enclosed estate offers an amazing opportunity to feel you live in the countryside, on the outskirts of Paris. Sold with the complete equipment for maintenance of the park including the tractor.

The property is located 10 minutes by car from Poissy station or Saint-Germain-en-Laye station (RER A line to La Défense/Paris). There is easy access by car to the A13/A14. The International Lycée of Saint Germain en Laye is only 5.3km, a 9 min journey.
