Description
Exclusivité Daniel FÉAU. Implantée dans l'une des artères les plus emblématiques du centre historique d'Arles, à quelques pas des Arènes, inscrites au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO, cette maison de ville se distingue par son bâti de caractère.
La partie principale développe plus de 165 m² habitables répartis sur trois niveaux. Ses volumes généreux, ses belles hauteurs sous plafond et ses éléments architecturaux d'origine témoignent d'un patrimoine profondément ancré, reflet de l'âme architecturale d'Arles. Elle comprend notamment une salle à manger-cuisine de plus de 50 m2, deux chambres et un bureau pouvant aisément être converti en troisième chambre. Une terrasse d'environ 35 m² offre une vue directe sur les Arènes, complétée par un espace extérieur avec barbecue en pierre.
L'ensemble comprend également un studio indépendant de plain-pied d'environ 32 m² habitables.
Le sous-sol dispose de deux grandes caves, atout rare en centre-ville. Un garage de 22 m² permet le stationnement de deux véhicules.
Des travaux de rafraîchissement sont à prévoir, laissant toute latitude pour réinterpréter ces beaux volumes au gré des envies.

Next steps for moving to France
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
