ORLEANS (45) - Banner / Train Stations - 18th Century Character House - A haven of peace just steps from the city center As soon as you cross the threshold of this 18th-century house, one thing becomes clear: you are somewhere else. Somewhere else, yet so close. Just minutes from the center of Orléans, the train station, and all amenities, this house tells a different story, one of a bucolic countryside spirit where time seems to stand still. Completely renovated in 2006 with remarkable care, this characterful property of 164 m2 of living space, extended by a 20 m2 veranda, has preserved its original charm while incorporating modern comforts. Proof? A C energy performance rating, exceptional for a building of this period, attesting to the quality of its renovation. Inspiring volumes The ground floor exudes a generous lifestyle. The 38 sq m living room is bathed in natural light that shifts throughout the day. The separate, well-equipped kitchen (Cuisine de France) flows seamlessly into the veranda, creating a perfect transition between indoors and outdoors. An office, a pantry, and a WC complete this level harmoniously. The beautifully preserved, light-filled solid oak staircase leads you to the first floor. Here, solid wood flooring graces three bright bedrooms, and a refined bathroom where gray and white blend elegantly, featuring both a bathtub and shower. A multi-purpose room with a shower offers clever design potential to create an even more comfortable bathroom. The icing on the cake On the second floor lies the true gem of this home: a magnificent 30 sq m room with a cathedral ceiling and endless possibilities. A screening room for film buffs, a playroom for children, an office, a workshop for creative minds... It's up to you to reinvent this unique space to suit your desires. An additional bedroom and 17 sq m of attic space with a Velux window complete this level. The intimate spirit continues The basement, accessible via a comfortable staircase, reveals the attention to detail: a practical laundry room, a boiler room, and a gravel-lined wine cellar! Here, they respect the good things and the essentials! A garden with trees! The 'pause' button is included in the sale. Set on a walled, wooded plot of 627 m2, offering complete privacy, the house blends seamlessly with its garden. The approximately 30 m2 terrace extends the living spaces naturally. Beneath the pergola, the summer kitchen becomes the perfect setting for sunny days, for those moments spent lingering with friends, where meals stretch into the evening. The carefully maintained wooded areas create a veritable haven of greenery. The palm tree serves as a reminder that even in our latitudes, one can cultivate an almost southern charm. The double garage with workshop ideally complements this set, offering storage space and creative possibilities. This rare character home combines 18th-century authenticity, meticulous renovation, and the serenity of a preserved living environment. An exceptional property for those seeking the perfect balance between old-world charm, modern comfort, and urban convenience. Transport, shops, schools: everything is within easy reach. Plus, peace and quiet. Martine GOUPY, REGM Real Estate
