bordeaux – judaïque district – magnificent 19th-century private mansion – landscaped garden – swimming pool – guest apartment – garage
nestled within one of bordeaux′s most prestigious and discreet residential addresses, in the highly sought-after judaïque district, bordeaux sotheby′s international realty is honoured to present an extraordinary nineteenth-century private mansion that stands among the city′s most remarkable residential properties.
completely hidden from view behind its elegant stone façade, this exceptional residence enjoys absolute privacy while benefiting from immediate proximity to bordeaux′s finest international schools, renowned restaurants, local boutiques and the historic city centre. a truly confidential address where timeless elegance meets the very highest standards of contemporary luxury.
offering approximately 450 square metres of beautifully restored living space, this outstanding mansion is a masterclass in architectural preservation and refined modern living. every room has been meticulously redesigned to provide exceptional comfort while remaining faithful to the spirit and grandeur of the original residence. the result is a home where history and innovation coexist in perfect harmony.
the extensive restoration has been entrusted to some of the region′s finest craftsmen, whose meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout the property. noble materials including marble, granite, solid oak, bespoke ironwork, architectural glass and handcrafted joinery have been selected with uncompromising care, creating interiors that are both sophisticated and timeless.
from the moment you step inside, the scale and elegance of the property become immediately apparent.
a gracious entrance hall introduces the magnificent reception areas and sets the tone for the entire residence. soaring ceilings, beautifully restored mouldings, original fireplaces, magnificent hardwood floors and abundant natural light combine to create an atmosphere of understated grandeur that perfectly reflects the architectural heritage of bordeaux′s finest private mansions.
the ground floor unfolds through a spectacular sequence of reception rooms designed for both elegant entertaining and relaxed family living. the impressive double drawing room forms the heart of the home, offering exceptional proportions while maintaining an inviting sense of warmth and intimacy. natural light flows effortlessly through the interconnected spaces, enhanced by carefully preserved architectural features and spectacular views towards the landscaped gardens.
the formal dining room continues this harmonious progression, providing an elegant setting for entertaining on every scale. seamlessly connected to the reception rooms, it leads naturally into an extraordinary bespoke kitchen that perfectly balances contemporary design with exceptional craftsmanship.
designed as a true living space rather than simply a functional kitchen, it features premium appliances, custom cabinetry and luxurious finishes throughout. every detail has been carefully considered to create an environment equally suited to intimate family meals and sophisticated entertaining.
large floor-to-ceiling openings dissolve the boundaries between the interior and exterior, allowing the reception rooms to extend naturally onto the terraces and landscaped gardens beyond.
one of the property′s greatest luxuries is undoubtedly its magnificent landscaped garden of approximately 315 square metres — an extraordinary feature within the historic heart of bordeaux.
completely private and sheltered from surrounding properties, this remarkable outdoor space has been conceived as a natural extension of the house itself. beautifully landscaped terraces, elegant stone pathways and mature planting create a series of intimate outdoor rooms designed for relaxation, entertaining and quiet contemplation.
at its centre lies a stunning bespoke swimming pool whose clean contemporary lines integrate perfectly within the surrounding landscape. the combination of elegant architecture, lush greenery and tranquil water creates the rare sensation of a private urban retreat, offering a lifestyle seldom found in the city centre.
the upper floors reveal equally impressive private accommodation.
the first floor hosts four magnificent bedroom suites, each enjoying its own beautifully appointed bathroom or shower room together with bespoke fitted storage. every suite has been individually designed, combining refined contemporary finishes with the timeless elegance of the original architecture.
the principal suite occupies a privileged position within the residence and offers the atmosphere of an exclusive luxury hotel. bathed in natural light, it features a spectacular custom-designed dressing room, an exquisite marble bathroom with premium fittings and direct access to a delightful private terrace overlooking the landscaped gardens — an intimate sanctuary offering complete tranquillity.
the uppermost floor accommodates a fifth bedroom that may equally serve as a private office, library, media room or executive workspace depending on the future owner′s lifestyle requirements. this versatile space also benefits from its own private terrace offering beautiful rooftop views across historic bordeaux.
the lower ground floor has been entirely dedicated to comfort, leisure and wellness.
wine enthusiasts will appreciate the magnificent climate-controlled wine cellar, carefully designed to preserve and showcase an exceptional collection under ideal conditions.
an elegant wellness area further enhances the property′s exceptional amenities, featuring a fully equipped fitness room together with a luxurious hammam, creating a private spa experience that can be enjoyed every day without leaving home.
generous storage rooms, technical facilities and service areas complete this remarkably functional level.
the residence is equipped with every modern convenience expected of a property of this calibre.
a private lift serves every floor, ensuring effortless circulation throughout the home. integrated air conditioning, comprehensive home automation, advanced security systems and state-of-the-art technical installations provide exceptional comfort while discreetly preserving the historic character of the building. outstanding energy performance and intelligent climate management ensure year-round comfort without compromise.
an internal garage — an exceptionally rare asset within bordeaux′s historic centre — further enhances the property′s practicality and exclusivity, providing secure private parking with direct access to the residence.
the location is every bit as exceptional as the property itself.
the judaïque district has long been regarded as one of bordeaux′s most prestigious residential neighbourhoods, appreciated for its architectural beauty, peaceful atmosphere and proximity to the city′s finest amenities. international schools, gourmet restaurants, artisan food shops, cultural institutions and excellent transport links are all within easy walking distance.
the jardin public, the golden triangle, the historic city centre and the elegant riverfront can all be reached within minutes, allowing residents to enjoy the very best of bordeaux while returning each evening to the privacy and serenity of an extraordinary family residence.
private mansions offering this combination of architectural significance, impeccable renovation, landscaped gardens, swimming pool, lift and private garage are exceptionally rare on the bordeaux market. opportunities of this calibre are seldom available and are highly sought after by discerning international buyers seeking an uncompromising lifestyle property.
far more than simply a prestigious residence, this remarkable home represents a unique way of life where historic architecture, contemporary design, advanced technology and exceptional comfort coexist in perfect balance. every room reflects a commitment to excellence, every material has been selected without compromise and every space has been designed to elevate everyday living.
