Architect-designed villa with swimming pool between lake and mountains

Located in a quiet residential area of Novalaise, this architect-designed villa, originally built in 1978, underwent a complete renovation, completed in 2025, to create a contemporary, turnkey home. Just 1.5 km from Lake Aiguebelette and within easy reach of amenities, it offers the perfect blend of tranquility and practicality. Nothing has been left to chance: every detail has been carefully considered for efficiency and comfort, just 10 minutes from Chambéry and close to major roads. The villa offers 220 sqm of living space, plus a separate 50 sqm one-bedroom apartment, all situated on a 1,774 sqm plot.

The ground floor is designed to optimize daily living and entertaining. It opens onto an entrance hall leading to an office, ideal for working from home, as well as a bedroom with a loggia and a shower room, providing convenient single-level living. The heart of this level is the large, open-plan living room, centered around a recently fitted, semi-open kitchen. The entire space benefits from exceptional natural light thanks to its south-facing aspect. A Godin wood-burning stove (2020) adds to the living room’s warm ambiance. Both the living room and the ground-floor bedroom are equipped with reversible air conditioning. The outdoor space is a true extension of the house. Large French doors open directly onto the outside, creating a vast 140 sqm south-facing terrace paved with porcelain stoneware tiles, which leads to the heated Desjoyaux swimming pool. The high-quality finishes highlight the exceptional nature of the materials: black aluminum window and door frames installed between 2022 and 2025 and brushed stainless steel railings.

The upper floor is accessed via a bright, open-plan mezzanine, creating an ideal office or relaxation area. The main sleeping area comprises four spacious bedrooms, all with ample built-in storage. Two of these bedrooms open onto a shared south-facing balcony, offering unobstructed views of the surrounding mountains and the terrace with its swimming pool. A second shower room complete this layout.

The property benefits from a large, full basement including a double garage for two cars, a laundry room, and cellars. The major advantage lies in the independent 50 sq m (538 sq ft) one-bedroom apartment, which represents an immediate source of rental income or a private space for hosting family and friends. Completely renovated, this gîte is rated 3 ears of corn by Gîtes de France and has its own private garden and dedicated above-ground swimming pool, ensuring privacy for its occupants.

Thermal comfort is optimal and designed for efficiency, thanks in particular to high-performance insulation, including a new roof (installed in 2025) and a high-performance air-to-water heat pump (installed in 2008). Energy efficiency is certified by an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of B (94 kWh/sqm/year – updated January 1, 2026). This contemporary, turnkey home is a rare opportunity for a family seeking high-end amenities and optimal comfort in a desirable residential area.
