In the peaceful heart of Guerniz, one of Fez Medina’s oldest neighborhoods, Dar Nour—the “House of Light”—is an 18th-century property that reflects the layered cultural and architectural heritage of the city. Centered around a spacious double-height courtyard, the house currently has three bedrooms with the possibility to create one or two additional rooms.

Throughout the home, traditional craftsmanship is evident: hand-carved and painted cedar doors, a finely detailed four-sided wooden balcony with moucharabieh balustrades, and an ancient door inscribed in Kufic script. The kitchen, located on the ground floor, is entered through a carved Jewish tarma, a rare and significant architectural feature. Two salons offer generous living space, along with a guest toilet on the ground floor and two full bathrooms upstairs.

The upper floor showcases painted wood panels with varied floral and geometric designs, while the rooftop terrace offers sweeping views across the medina to the Palais Jamaï and Mount Zalagh.

The neighboring ruin—available separately—could be adapted into a garden or additional space, with potential access from Guerniz.

Dar Nour would suit buyers looking for a traditional home with original elements, offering both charm and potential for further adaptation.

The house is in the process of being titled.
