BORDEAUX CENTER - STUNNING AND EXCEPTIONNAL PRIVATE TOWN-HOUSE - PARC - SWIMMING-POOL A rare privilege. A confidential address. A place steeped in history. Presenting such a property goes far beyond a simple real estate description: it is about unveiling one of Bordeaux’s true architectural and heritage gems, an extraordinary residence that has stood the test of time with remarkable elegance and an enduring architectural presence. Located in the highly sought-after Saint-Seurin district, within immediate proximity to all amenities, renowned schools, and the city center, this exceptional private mansion embodies Bordeaux’s elegance in its most noble and timeless form. Formerly used as the headquarters of an old Consulate, this prestigious property is deeply rooted in the city’s history and belongs to those rare estates capable of combining heritage value, refined lifestyle, and virtually limitless potential uses. This outstanding property is composed of several complementary units, forming a coherent and harmonious ensemble: A main private mansion of approximately 400 sqm of living space, benefiting from terraces and a private garden Two independent apartments of 112 sqm and 106 sqm, each with its own private terrace An independent pavilion of approximately 185 sqm A large fully fitted basement including an indoor swimming pool and a fitness area In total, the property offers around 770 sqm of living space and over 1,100 sqm of built area, providing an exceptionally wide range of possible uses: an exclusive family residence, a multi-generational estate, a prestigious corporate headquarters, a luxury guesthouse, a reception venue, or a mixed residential and professional project. From the moment one enters the main mansion, visitors are immediately struck by the grandeur of the volumes and the refinement of the architectural features. Time seems suspended. The elegant enfilade reception rooms are flooded with natural light and reveal the richness of the original construction: delicate mouldings, remarkably high ceilings, beautifully preserved antique parquet flooring, period fireplaces, and elegant perspectives that create a refined yet welcoming atmosphere. Every room tells a story, and every detail reflects traditional craftsmanship preserved with care and respect. The property has successfully retained its authentic historic character while integrating modern comfort seamlessly. At the heart of the residence, a magnificent double-revolution staircase stands as a true architectural masterpiece. Inspired by classical design and echoing the influence of Victor Louis, the renowned architect of the Bordeaux Opera House, it represents one of the property’s most significant heritage features. More than a functional element, this staircase structures the entire building, guides the eye, and gives the estate a unique identity—almost museum-like in its presence—while remaining a fully lived-in and vibrant home. Outside, the property reveals another of its treasures: a carefully designed and intimate landscaped park, a true haven of peace in the heart of Bordeaux. Created by renowned landscape architect Françoise Phiquepal, known for her work on iconic sites such as the Jardin Public and Parc Bordelais, this green setting offers a refined and sophisticated botanical composition. The grounds feature an elegant paved courtyard, majestic century-old trees, soothing landscaped perspectives, and a remarkably peaceful atmosphere rarely found in such a central urban environment. The garden also includes a heated outdoor swimming pool, perfectly integrated into its surroundings, as well as relaxation areas designed as true outdoor living rooms. Altogether, the park forms a timeless escape—a sanctuary of tranquility where nature and architecture coexist in perfect harmony. The property has been designed to offer an outstanding level of comfort while preserving its historical identity. It notably features two swimming pools: one outdoor pool and one indoor pool located in the fully fitted basement. This lower level also includes a fitness room, creating a private wellness area within the residence itself. Such amenities are extremely rare in a city-center private mansion and give the property a distinctly contemporary and exclusive dimension. An additional independent building of approximately 180 sqm completes the estate. With its refined architecture and separate access, it offers a wide range of potential uses: Art studio. Corporate offices or headquarters. Showroom. Guest house. Independent residence. Event or reception space. This high level of flexibility significantly enhances the property’s already exceptional potential, allowing future owners to tailor the estate to their specific needs and projects. The Saint-Seurin district is one of Bordeaux’s most desirable residential areas. Known for its discreet elegance, peaceful atmosphere, and immediate proximity to the historic city center, it offers an ideal living environment. Local shops, prestigious schools, cultural institutions, and public transport are all within a few minutes’ reach, while still preserving a calm and refined residential ambiance. This rare location allows residents to fully enjoy city life while benefiting from a protected and green environment. - We love : exceptional historic private mansion Approximately 770 sqm of living space and over 1,100 sqm of built area, two independent apartments and one pavilion,180 sqm independent annex with multiple uses.
