Located in Lyon’s bohemian Croix-Rousse neighbourhood – known for its houses that were former workshops – this beautiful apartment sits with the best of them, offering nothing but style and comfort. We love how the building’s history has been incorporated into its up-to-date design, with exposed brick walls, beamed ceilings and tiled floors lending a rustic yet elegant atelier feel to the proceedings. Huge windows allow plenty of light to pour in and bounce around the open-plan living area with its double-height ceilings, creating a bright and sociable space you’ll relish relaxing in. Make yourself at home on the plump sofa with a glass of wine or gather around the dining table for a French feast when you’re not out sampling the local restaurants. The three bedrooms, meanwhile, are pared-back spaces curated with rest and relaxation in mind, and we’re particularly fond of the main bedroom with its glass walls looking out over the living area below. With a desk space on hand too should you need to catch up on work, you’re all set for a carefree time whether you’re visiting for business or pleasure. Outside of your home, Croix-Rousse’s maze of leafy squares waits to be discovered, as does the area’s history of silk weaving best seen at the Mur des Canuts and the Maison des Canuts museum. Fresh produce is sold at the daily market on Boulevard de la Croix Rousse, and you’ll find trendy crowds delighting in gourmet patisseries, hip wine bars and art galleries all around your neighbourhood too.
