Description
Un duplex d'exception aux allures de maison, dans un domaine au charme unique. Dès l'entrée de la résidence, le ton est donné : Une double grille majestueuse, une allée élégante, un parkng visiteurs et une montée bordée de sculptures… ici, on pénètre dans un lieu à part, presque confidentiel. Au cœur de cette résidence de standing sécurisée avec gardien, ce duplex de 142 m² développe une atmosphère rare. Contrairement à ce que pourrait laisser penser sa désignation administrative en rez-de-jardin - rez-de-chaussée, l'appartement bénéficie d'une position dominante exceptionnelle : Il surplombe un magnifique parc arboré aux arbres centenaires, offrant une vue dégagée, sans vis-à-vis pesant, et une vraie sensation de respiration. Le bien se compose : D'un vaste séjour lumineux ouvrant sur une terrasse de 24 m² D'une cuisine équipée De 5 chambres à l'étage, idéal pour une famille De 2 salles de bains, nombreux rangements Cave et parking en sous-sol Un emplacement stratégique et recherché : Accès par plusieurs rues (Général Leclerc, Félicien David, Alexandre Bertrand)
Écoles à proximité immédiate Place Royale et commerces accessibles à pied Ce bien réunit ce que très peu d'appartements offrent aujourd'hui : Des volumes familiaux, une vraie vue dégagée, et un environnement verdoyant d'exception, à deux pas de tout. Une visite s'impose ! Contactez-moi pour rendez-vous : Patrick SCHULLER TRIANON Mob. <span class="importDescriptionDecorator" data-type="phone">+33 6 07 58 34 53</span>

Morning baguettes from the corner boulangerie, two-hour lunches with wine that no one apologizes for, and the slow realization that the French were right about everything involving food.

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.
