Bordeaux, with a population of just over half a million inhabitants, is located in the South West of France in the Aquitaine region. It is considered to be the most important port in the whole of Europe. It is perhaps better known, however, for its neoclassical architecture and spacious town centre, complete with wide avenues and well looked after parks. Bordeaux has preserved its 18th Century atmosphere, slightly livened up by the presence of 60,000 students from the local university. The world's wine capital is what is warm up described as ‘classic chic’ in style, but has undergone some renovation and rejuvenation projects which will ultimately bring this large, wealthy metropolis with its classical architecture into the 21st Century.

The development finds itself in the most prestigious part of Bordeaux. It centers on the Quartier St-Pierre, which is surrounded by narrow streets, and lined with old churches and grand mansions adorned by wrought-iron balconies and arcading. There has been a lot of restoration over the last few years, and many new shops and restaurants have opened up in the small winding streets. One of the most opulent displays of Bordeaux’s former glory is the Grand Theatre. Nearby is the charming square of Pey-Berland and equidistant are the Crown Courts and the Hotel de Ville. The magnificent medieval church of St Andre dominates the skyline and looks down over the new development.

This development of 51 apartments is remarkable in that it has preserved the neo-classical style of it’s surrounding buildings in it’s main entrance, courtyard and tower whilst gracefully allowing the new apartments to retain the essential elements of modern day living. The apartments, with their large balconies and terraces, look out over a vast landscaped interior courtyard garden which features unusual Japanese touches.

Features include:

Secured entrance to the residences
Videophone
Electric roller blinds
Wood and metallic interiors
2.6m high ceilings
Air con
Porcelain tiles in the bathroom
Wooden parquet floors
Exotic wood details in the interiors
Underground parking

Although the yield is below average on these apartments we are highly recommending them as 4* long term investments based on their location and the incredibly high quality of the design and execution. The capital appreciation in the area alone is of great interest, but in this ‘quartier’ of the city these apartments will become gold dust in the years to come.
