In a few months, the narrow house next door will also be for sale by the neighbour, this would be suitable to create a lift to easily service all levels. A lot of potential in all areas for this townhouse, a private mansion that belonged to the Grande Demoiselle, Anne Marie d'Orléans, cousin of Louis XIV.
The building is located within the perimeter of the church, thus the heritage of Thiers and the door of the main façade has been listed as a national monument since 1927.
There is no garden or balcony for this property.
All of the windows have been changed to grey painted wooden windows, double-glazed (tilt and turn for 9 of them), except on the medieval town side where the old windows from 1700 have been preserved at the request of the Monuments Historiques. The building has town gas central heating with cast iron radiators and is connected to the mains drainage system.
