From the street it is a single narrow shopfront, but inside rooms and courtyards run back in a line: the classic Old Quarter tube house. This restored late-19th-century merchant home is furnished with wooden pieces, an ancestral altar and a small inner garden. You read the layout as you walk in: shop at the front, family rooms behind. An hour is plenty, and it fits neatly into an Old Quarter stroll.
