Exceptional 17th century ‘maison bourgeoise’ near Chartres

Gallardon, 1 hour's drive from Paris and 25 minutes from Chartres and Rambouillet

Large late 17th-century bourgeois house, ideally located in the charming little historic town of Gallardon with all amenities, 25 minutes from Chartres and Rambouillet, close to the Loire valley and 1 hour's drive from Paris. Épernon train station is 13 minutes away, taking you to Paris-Montparnasse in 1 hour. Orly airport, Massy TGV station and the Château de Versailles are 45 minutes away by car. The châteaux of the Loire Valley, easily accessible by motorway, are an hour and a half away by car. Total privacy thanks to the high walls surrounding the garden. Great potential thanks to its attic and garden.

Bordering a small, little-travelled street, the house reveals its imposing facade and its spacious interior. The house officially spans 235 m² (over 300 m² including the attic). From the moment you enter, the codes of the bourgeoisie of the period are apparent. Covered in a beautiful mosaic floor that continues down the long corridor, the entrance hall leads off to the left and right into a large, vast lounge with herringbone parquet flooring and a beautiful period fireplace, and a spacious dining room. This large living space is set against a striking backdrop, and benefits from plenty of natural light thanks to its many windows. A small boudoir-library adjoins, providing a cosy, relaxing atmosphere.
