This 19th-century former factory, converted into a 270 sq m loft-style home, sits on a 375 sq m plot in the heart of the Bastide district, on Bordeaux's right bank.

Transformed in 2017, the space was structured on two levels, carefully preserving the impressive volumes of the original building with a subtle blend of industrial features and contemporary comfort. Beyond the stone façade lies a vast patio, serving as a buffer zone between the street and the house. A few brick steps lead to the entrance, which features built-in storage and opens onto a spacious living area with a double-height ceiling and a delicate Polonceau metal truss frame. The living room is situated along a double-height, workshop-style glass façade and is centered around a wood-burning stove. The dining area is nestled beneath the upper floor's timber frame for added privacy. The open-plan kitchen, slightly set back, is separated from the living area by a black granite bar with wood cladding, creating a unified aesthetic against the terracotta brick wall. An adjoining storage and laundry room connects to the entrance. On the other side of the immense glass facade lies a charming 80-square-meter terrace facing east. Originally built upon, this space, enclosed by stone walls, has been stripped back, preserving the metal trusses under the open sky--a true outdoor room, sheltered from view and enhanced by the greenery of Virginia creeper and giant ferns. Also on the ground floor, a first suite with its dressing room and bathroom enjoys an unobstructed view of the surrounding vegetation. A metal staircase with oak treads leads to the upper level, which features a large open mezzanine overlooking the living room and offering unobstructed views through the living room's bay windows. A true bridge, this space connects a master suite with built-in storage and a bathroom, designed as a glass box, to a room that could serve as a home cinema and an open-plan office nestled against the glass facade. All of this is tucked away under the sloping roof, maximizing the exposure of the timber frame, a testament to its industrial past. Finally, an independent studio of approximately 25 sq m located on the upper floor facing the street completes this prestigious property. A courtyard provides parking for three vehicles.

This ensemble perfectly combines the intimacy of a place steeped in history with the dynamism of a rapidly developing neighborhood.

LE QUARTIER

La Bastide

Rive droite, La Bastide s’impose en miroir discret du Bordeaux historique. Ancien quartier ouvrier et industriel, elle a longtemps vécu en marge, entre usines, rails et maisons de briques.
