Apartment in an old deconsecrated chapel

In Villefranche-sur-Saône, this astonishing renovation of 280sqm on two levels is the result of the rehabilitation of an old chapel.

Located in the narthex of this former place of worship, cloakroom and toilets ideally find their place away from the living rooms. An imposing solid wood door with double leaves provides access to the old nave, now redesigned as the main space of this dwelling. Here, the open kitchen adjoins a spacious living room leading to the heart of the chapel.

On either side of this set, laundry room and pantry have been cleverly thought out. To access the upper floor, you have to take a majestic spiral steel staircase winding around its central stringer. A large reading area is complemented by a made-to-measure library. On this same level, a large dressing room, two beautiful bedrooms and a bathroom take place.
On the top level, the master suite, designed as a luxury hotel suite and hidden behind an imposing workshop glass roof, benefits from a dressing room and a bathroom. Both a place of observation and movement, an overhang overlooking the lower floors contributes to the change of scenery aroused by a stay in this ancient sacred place. Outside, a covered terrace is the ideal place for beautiful summer evenings.

By preserving its history and in line with current comfort requirements, this rehabilitation is undoubtedly an architectural success both internally and externally.
