Elegant Historic Riad 400m²

Description

Tucked discreetly near the edge of the medina with unobstructed views of Borj Nord, this stately riad offers 400m² of rich architectural heritage awaiting thoughtful restoration. Its expansive central courtyard—framed by arches and slender zellij-covered columns—centers on a petal-shaped fountain, evoking the serenity of Andalusian-Moorish tradition. Inside, the main salon features vibrant stained glass, finely carved stucco panels, and original mosaic tilework in deep blue and ivory. Hand-painted cedarwood ceiling crowns the space—an lovely example of traditional artisanal work. Light filters softly through the multi-colored windows onto classic zellige floor. The riad’s structure spans two levels, with generous room volumes and intricate decorative motifs throughout, including mashrabiya-style ironwork and finely carved wooden doors. Though in need of renovation, the property retains its soul and solid architectural bones. A vast rooftop terrace offers commanding views across the hills and city walls—ideal for creating a rooftop lounge, garden, or guest dining area. Perfect for a private residence, boutique guesthouse, or cultural retreat, this rare offering provides the opportunity to revive a noble Fez home with authenticity and vision.
