A unique apartment with rooftop garden and spectacular views offered for sale by online auction at Drouot.immo

A verdant haven overlooks the most iconic landmarks of the French capital.

Drouot.immo is proud to announce the online auction of this unique property in the heart of Paris Rive Gauche: an apartment whose crowning glory is an exceptional open-air terrace landscaped to create a rooftop garden.

This rare gem occupying the upper floors of a handsome dressed-stone residence invites the visitor to luxuriate timelessly in magical surroundings detached from the world below.

The auction will begin on the drouot.immo website at 5pm on 10 July 2025 with bidding starting at €7,500,000.

Panoramic views from a terrace garden opposite the Eiffel Tower

Crossing the threshold of this apartment is an unforgettable experience: the visitor is immediately captivated by the spectacular beauty of one of the loveliest cities in the world.

Like Stendhal discovering Florence for the first time, there is an instinctive sensation of vertigo in response to such an exceptional panorama. Three centuries of history are within a single gaze here: the Hôtel des Invalides and the imperial gold of its dome, the gilded bronze Fames on the Alexandre III bridge, the glittering glass roof of the Grand Palais, and the capital's most iconic landmark the Eiffel Tower.
 

Clean lines exalted by natural daylight

Architect Reynier Pozzo di Borgo designed the apartment as a succession of rooms with simple lines and meticulous finishes. Every detail contributes to the creation of a sophisticated and welcoming atmosphere, from the solid parquet flooring and delicate marble finishes to a working fireplace and built-in storage.

Natural daylight plays a key role here by initiating a continuous indoor/outdoor dialogue: the lounge, study and bedroom face west and open onto a luxuriantly planted balcony via six broad arch-topped French windows. Facing east, the kitchen, boudoir and bathroom open onto two generously planted balconies, further intensifying the impression of living deep in nature at the very heart of the capital.

A space designed for entertaining

 

An internal staircase rises from the apartment to an extraordinary and completely private 123 m² roof terrace. The garden designer has successfully transplanted the landscaped garden style to delight visitors with timber boarded paths, trellised planting, lavender, jasmine, maples and cornflowers. A glorious host of climbing roses (Ghislaine de Féligonde, Fée des Neiges and Madame Alfred Carrière) provides frequent colour through spring and summer.

This green oasis of peace conceals a mosaic of reception and seating spaces. The largest of these faces the Eiffel Tower and provides the perfect setting in which to host larger gatherings, while next to it is a small, intimate sitting area for private conversation. An avenue of roses and sculpted box topiary provides cooling shade, and an outdoor kitchen concealed by the foliage is on hand for preparation of the finest dishes.

The property is complemented by an extensive 32 m² self-contained studio in the courtyard, offering a multiplicity of potential uses.  

Two parking spaces - one with an electric vehicle charging point - and a cellar complete this rare gem with its perfect location at the heart of one of the most sought-after districts of Paris.
