A rare haven of peace in the heart of a dynamic and eclectic district, offering an atmosphere that is both popular and bourgeois-bohemian. A district where history and modernity meet, with a strong artistic and cultural influence.
Built over 1 floor, this property is located in the area of Folie-Méricourt and includes 7 apartments. The residence is constructed on a plot of 821 m2 located 130 m from Richard Lenoir metro station (Ligne 5), 170 m from Saint-Ambroise metro station (Ligne 9). Self-service bike system 'Velib' nearby.
The Folie-Méricourt district is located in the 11th arrondissement of Paris. It is bounded by the boulevards Richard-Lenoir to the west, Voltaire to the south, and the rues de la Roquette and du Chemin Vert. The district takes its name from the former ‘folie’ (pleasure residence) built in the 18th century by a certain Mr Méricourt, who was a master of waters and forests.
Characteristics of the neighbourhood: Atmosphere: La Folie-Méricourt is a dynamic and eclectic neighbourhood, with an atmosphere that is both popular and bourgeois-bohemian. It's a place where history and modernity meet, with a strong influence from artistic and cultural life.
Architecture: The district's architecture is varied, ranging from Haussmann-style buildings to more recent constructions. There are also small cobbled streets, typical of old Paris.
Cultural life: Folie-Méricourt is known for its many theatres, art galleries and trendy bars. The district attracts a young and creative population. There are also iconic venues such as the Bataclan, a famous concert hall.
Gastronomy: The district is rich in restaurants, ranging from traditional bistros to more contemporary addresses, often with a diverse culinary offering reflecting the multicultural nature of Paris.
Transportation: The district is well served by public transport, with several metro stations (Oberkampf, Parmentier, Goncourt) and bus routes running through it. This facilitates access to other parts of Paris.
Population: Folie-Méricourt attracts a diverse population, with a mix of families, young professionals and artists. The district is undergoing a process of gentrification, with property prices gradually rising.
Highlights: Le Cirque d'Hiver: A historic 19th-century building that is still in operation, offering circus shows. Rue Oberkampf: A lively street with many bars, restaurants and independent boutiques.
In short, the Folie-Méricourt district is a blend of tradition and modernity, with a vibrant atmosphere that attracts Parisians and visitors alike.
11th arrondissement - Located on the Right Bank, this district popular among artists is home to the well-known Place de la Bastille, the New Opera and the fashionable Faubourg Saint-Antoine. The latter is an area characterized by cafés, restaurants, nightlife, boutiques and galleries. Rue Oberkampf, replete with gritty Parisian charm, is the place to go to mingle with locals in funky, casual eating and drinking establishments. There are 5 open-air traditional food markets in the area. The population consists of a large number of single adults, though its eastern portions are more family-oriented. There is a strong community spirit in most areas of the eleventh, and it is interspersed with pleasant squares and parks. Main Sights and Attractions in this Arrondissement includes Place de la Bastille (shared with the 4th and 12th arrondissements), Cirque d'hiver Theater, Oberkampf neighborhood (vibrant nightlife scene), Edith Piaf Museum, Maison des Métallos (former metalworkers' house; currently an arts and culture center, and Place de la République.
