Character house with landscaped garden and orangerie studio – Crest

Time Stands Still in the Heart of the City: A Secret Oasis Between Heritage and Creation
Hidden from sight and the city’s hustle, this singular 280 m² property reveals itself as a true haven of peace. Nestled within a lush green setting, this 1950s residence unfolds its charms across three levels. It offers rare versatility with two independent living units, an artist’s studio, and a basin-style pool, all just steps away from local amenities.

The garden level hosts a vast, single-story apartment designed for conviviality and contemporary comfort. A masterly 55 m² living space merges the lounge, dining area, and a kitchen with warm accents. A small “boudoir” salon?a true cocoon of intimacy?invites reading and serves as a bridge to the sleeping quarters. The latter consists of a comfortable suite with a shower room and dressing area. For connoisseurs, a wine cellar completes this level, which opens entirely toward the outdoors.

On the upper floors, the soul of the 1950s lingers through noble materials and custom-made fittings.
On the first level: An entrance hall leads to a salon, a dining room with timeless charm, a bedroom, and a small kitchen ready for reinvention. This level also hides a nostalgic treasure: a former medical office with its waiting room, offering unique rehabilitation potential as an office, library, or guest room.

Upstairs: Three bright bedrooms and a bathroom occupy the space, complemented by vast potential in the attic (playroom, reading lounge, etc.).

The landscaped garden is an ode to nature. A large, shaded paved terrace links the house to the grounds. Wandering down the path, one discovers a superb “Orangerie” style artist’s studio with large glass openings, as well as a basin-style pool perfectly integrated into the vegetation for moments of absolute freshness.

This property is a rare opportunity for those seeking a modular family home, a bed-and-breakfast project, or a residence blending professional and private life in a bucolic setting, all while enjoying the amenities of downtown Crest on foot.

DPE (Energy Performance): Class F
This global energy performance certificate (EPC) does not distinguish between the property’s two independent housing units. However, the garden level has undergone a complete renovation. In accordance with the audit’s recommendations, optimizing the insulation and heating system would achieve a Grade A rating, thereby significantly increasing the property’s value.
