Renoir’s Kitchen

September 16, 2012 by Marion Maneker

Okay, not really. It is the recently renovated kitchen in the Monmartre home of Renoir during the 1880s which is no for sale for just shy of $10m. The listing comes from The Wall Street Journal which also features a townhouse in New York’s East Village owned by another artworld related-couple. She puts together a magazine for ArtBasel Miami Beach and he’s an investor in the only demonstrably successful art fund, Xiling LLC.

Château des Brouillards, the 3,000-square-foot, 18th-century stone house is in the northern neighborhood of Montmartre. Built in 1772 by a Parisian lawyer, it has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a kitchen decorated in the French country style and a dining room with ceilings more than 20 feet high. The property also has a large private garden with views of the Sacré Coeur. Local historians have said Renoir probably lived there in the late 1880s.
