La Sainte-Catherine 215

Your balcony on rue Sainte-Catherine
On the second floor of a fine period building, La Sainte Catherine 215 opens onto a large wrought-iron balcony overlooking rue Sainte-Catherine, Europe’s longest pedestrian shopping street. With its bistro table and rattan armchairs, it is the perfect spot for a morning coffee or a glass of Bordeaux in the evening, watching the city go by below. A real terrace right in the city centre : a rarity in Bordeaux.

An apartment full of character
From the moment you step inside, you are won over by the Haussmann-style charm of the place:

• original period parquet floors;
• ceiling mouldings and old beams with a lovely patina;
• walls in exposed Bordeaux stone ;
• marble fireplace topped by a large gilded mirror ;
• crystal chandelier of majestic proportions;
• two tall French windows with their wooden interior shutters, flooding the room with light.

The décor blends antique pieces with contemporary touches: Chesterfield sofa in leather, colourful artworks, bespoke furniture in olive green and mustard yellow. You truly feel you are staying in an exceptional Bordeaux apartment, not an ordinary rental.

A mezzanine bedroom
The double bed sits on a mezzanine beneath the beams, behind an elegant brass railing. From your bed, you look down over the living room and its crystal chandelier. The bedroom has an Aerotex technology mattress, with progressive, even support for truly restful nights. It is reached by a bespoke wooden staircase that also provides storage.

A kitchen made for entertaining
The kitchen opens onto the living area and is arranged around a central island, with an induction hob and a built-in wine cooler to keep your bottles of Bordeaux at the right temperature. You will also find an oven, a microwave, a fridge, a Nespresso coffee machine, a kettle and a toaster. A dining table for 4, by the windows, is perfect for sharing a convivial meal.
