The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Cette maison présente deux étages en retrait l'un sur l'autre. La toiture déborde en demi cercle sur l'étage supérieur. De petites jambes de force en forme de balustre ont été placées sous la saillie. Elles reposent sur un cordon en bois orné de minuscules consoles en quart de cercle. L'étage inférieur avance dans le vide, soutenu par de grosses poutres moulurées. Entre ces poutres court une frise en bois sculptée de têtes, de choux frisés, d'une salamandre... Le rez-de-chaussée a été transformé lors de l'ouverture de la boutique.

This house presents two storeys set back one above the other. The roof overhangs in a semi-circle over the upper storey. Small braces in the form of balusters have been placed under the overhang. They rest on a wooden string course decorated with tiny quarter-circle consoles. The lower storey projects into the void, supported by large moulded beams. Between these beams runs a carved wooden frieze of heads, curled cabbage leaves, a salamander... The ground floor was transformed when the shop was opened.
