This property, which can be found in the heart of a residential neighbourhood dotted with gardens and woodland, is tucked away from prying eyes in grounds of more than 1.2 hectares. At the entrance, there is an automatic gate that opens onto a gravelled drive lined by tall, old trees. A large, gravelled forecourt with curved contours stands before the house, which possesses approximately 310 m² of living space. It was built in 1975 and revamped in 2019. It now boasts a revisited classical style, typical of the elegance shown by residences of character. The main façade is markedly symmetrical, set around a central, slightly protruding pavilion with two storeys, which is flanked by two single-level wings. The light-coloured rendering highlights the basket handle arched windows with black joinery, while a stone flight of steps leads up to the entrance door. To the rear, the slope of the land conceals a garage in the basement, which can be reached via an open-air ramp. Half-moon openings with small-paned windows underline the split-level layout of this wing of the house. A modern extension with a flat roof extends from the central pavilion. It is punctuated by large windows with black metal frames, in a sleek, industrial style. It opens onto a patio with decking that is raised in relation to the garden and is adjacent to a 4-metre by 9-metre swimming pool. Beyond the vast gravelled courtyard, a dense, well-preserved wood slopes gently down to the banks of a stream marking the natural boundary of the property.

The residence

The ground floor
An approximately 65-m² reception room houses a kitchen and a dining room in sleek volumes with modern lines. The light-coloured, wide stripped wooden floor unifies the space. The kitchen is part of a vast wall unit with a graphic design, in the middle of which there is a built-in strip of vegetation. In the middle of the room, an old grand piano has been repurposed and turned into a central island unit. On one side, this space integrates a second volume bathed in light thanks to tall windows with black metal joinery like a glass wall, giving the impression that the interior extends outside onto an approximately 100-m² patio with a 9-metre by 4-metre swimming pool in the centre. An Italian-made wood-pellet burning stove with glossy curves gently and constantly disseminates heat throughout the house during the winter. To the rear, a hall with a marble floor opens onto a staircase with a finely crafted ironwork balustrade. The hall leads to two approximately 17-m² bedrooms, each of which boasts views and access to the swimming pool. The bathroom is made up of subtle contrasts, with light-coloured upper walls and darker hues. A retro-inspired column washbasin contrasts with a bath boasting curvy contours and standing on feet in the shape of sculpted lions. There is also a lavatory on this level.
The upstairs
The half-turn staircase climbs up to a vast landing, which serves as a conservatory. Beneath an exposed roof frame with beams painted in ebony black, this atypical space looks up to the skies through a dozen fixed frame skylights, while the flooring is light-coloured. Two bedrooms measuring 17 m² and 13 m² respectively can be found beneath exposed roof frames and share a separate bathroom as well as shower room. A hall with a glass wall leads to the master bedroom with a cathedral ceiling that also boasts an en suite bathroom and wardrobe. The crossbeams have been whitewashed to give an even greater impression of space.
The basement
With a surface of approximately 120 m², it is made up of a vast space in which the flooring is entirely a concrete base. The smooth floor and walls painted in dark colours give this space a functional atmosphere, ideal for setting up a workshop, storage space and a garage with a capacity of up to nine vehicles. It can be reached via a wide roll-up door that opens onto the outside.
