The elegant decor of a Haussmann-style apartment with a terrace in Paris
This Haussmann-style apartment in Paris, with its contemporary and elegant decor, boasts a magnificent tree-lined terrace
Located on Avenue des Ternes, in that quiet, upscale part of Paris that tourists sometimes overlook, Haussmann-style apartment with an elegant decor, has all the hallmarks of the era. Molding, high ceilings, hardwood floors, and classic fireplaces, everything here appeals to lovers of 19th-century architecture. It was Baron Haussmann, at the request of Napoleon III, who laid out the boulevards. He then entrusted the construction of the buildings to contractors who built them according to his specifications. But he likely never imagined that 150 years later, these buildings with their wrought-iron balconies and zinc roofs would still be admired by all.
The long entrance gallery organizes the space according to the classic logic of the Haussmannian layout: reception rooms facing the boulevard, bedrooms facing the courtyard. But that’s where everything changes. The courtyard has become a terrace that extends the apartment outward, a precious asset and a rare feature in this style of construction.
Perhaps that is the true success of this space. You don’t hesitate to sit on the sofas or prepare meals in the kitchen. The color palette is understated. Neutral shades, with a few contrasting tones like blue. The contemporary furniture fits right in with this minimalist environment and spacious layout. Its fully equipped kitchen is both functional and beautiful. The materials are high-quality, the finishes matte, and the craftsmanship flawless.
A 60-square-meter private terrace in Paris, especially in a Haussmann-style building, is very rare. The owner, a professional in design and interior decoration, has treated this outdoor space as a true room. Like an open-air extension of the interior. The greenery acts as a filter and absorbs the noise from the avenue.
The neighborhood invites you to take a stroll; nearby, you’ll find Parc Monceau, or Place des Ternes and its flower markets. It’s enough to make you feel like a true Parisian...
