Giving this loft its soothing ambiance. Here at the heart of the Charonne district, just a stone\u2019s throw from P\u00e8re-Lachaise cemetery, in a Paris from another age that is currently being rediscovered by property lovers. This 2,583\u00a0sq\u00a0ft apartment now occupies what was once a speaker workshop. And when we say \u201csoothing\u201d, we mean it. In terms of definitions, \u201cloft\u201d is also entirely fitting, given that the 1,184\u00a0sq ft sitting room is entirely covered by a glass ceiling designed by our great friend Gustave Eiffel (that\u2019s right, the one with a monument to his name):<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Visite priv\u00e9e - Magnifique loft dans le 20e arrondissement de Paris\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cb7bN9600ww?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>This central space leads off to the master suite and open kitchen, while a large office opens onto a lounge with all the makings of a Moroccan patio under a second glass ceiling (somewhat of a theme). A small bedroom with a bathroom rounds off the ensemble. Just 2 bedrooms in 1,184\u00a0sq ft of space, we hear you say? True, but that\u2019s the charm of a true loft. And there\u2019s nothing to stop future owners from reworking the layout.<\/p>\n<p>The two grand pianos facing one another under the immense glass ceiling give an idea of the size of this glazed surface. Speaking of pianos, if they could talk they would have many a tale to tell of the jam sessions held by a famous French singer who just so happens to be the sister of the loft\u2019s current owner... (that\u2019s all you\u2019ll get out of us, ask the mistress of the house if you want a name).<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-107491 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/en\/realestate\/listings\/a-loft-with-an-eiffel-to-its-name\/attachment\/loft-chambre-2\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/loft-chambre-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/loft-chambre-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/loft-chambre-130x130.jpg 130w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/en\/realestate\/listings\/a-loft-with-an-eiffel-to-its-name\/attachment\/5102362-020-2\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/5102362-020-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/5102362-020-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/5102362-020-130x130.jpg 130w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/en\/realestate\/listings\/a-loft-with-an-eiffel-to-its-name\/attachment\/5102362-021-2\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/5102362-021-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/5102362-021-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/5102362-021-130x130.jpg 130w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/en\/realestate\/listings\/a-loft-with-an-eiffel-to-its-name\/attachment\/5102362-006-2\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/5102362-006-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/5102362-006-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/5102362-006-130x130.jpg 130w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>And as if the charm of this exceptional loft wasn't enough, S\u00e9bastien Mouton, Director of BARNES Paris Est, has another ace up his sleeve: <em>The Guardian<\/em> ranked the Charonne neighbourhood, around Place de la R\u00e9union (and you can't get much closer than this), as \u201c<em>one of the top 10 \u201ccoolest\u201d in Europe<\/em>\u201d in 2020.
