Designed by a Chantilly architect as his own residence where he lived from 1963 until we bought the house in 2000, this exceptionally spacious townhouse is located in the exclusive Bois St Denis area of central Chantilly. It is in one of the best areas of the town, only a short stroll to the forest and around 8 minutes walk to the Chantilly railway station, from where you can take a train to Paris Gare du Nord with a journey time of 25 minutes. Chantilly's Lycee (15 to 18 years) is a few minutes walk away. This has a new international section for English speakers which was introduced this year. English language classes for mother tongue English students from kindergarden up to the end of secondary education are also provided in Chantilly. Kindergarden, primary and other secondary schools are also located close by. Chantilly is an elegant town with plenty of great restaurants, cafes, bars , specialty shops, beauty and hair salons.
The house is cleverly configured on its north facing front giving a pronounced overhang to the upper stories and providing shelter to the ground floor entrance and garage area.
The front garden is walled and stocked with shrubs and trees on the borders with the area in front of the house laid to lawn with a short gravel entry drive leading to the new remote controlled double garage roll-over door. Access from the street is by remote controlled gates with a 9'6" opening. This garden and the one at the rear have both been designed to be low maintenance.
The house has great style and is remarkably easy and comfortable to live in with most of its rooms facing the sunny south facing rear garden and large paved terrace. This is a great entertaining area with direct access to the kitchen, dining room and Utility room "bar" area.
The renovation and re-modelling carried out recently has brought the house to a high standard of decor and technical quality.
