House with extension and Japanese-inspired garden

Hidden from view in the heart of the highly sought-after Villa du Pré, this detached early 20th-century house offers 261 sq m of living space on a wooded plot of over 500 sq m. The architectural design skillfully blends the charm of the original structure with a contemporary extension boasting remarkable proportions. A terrace and an outbuilding further enhance this unique property.

At the front, on the west side, a gate opens onto a courtyard adorned with a pergola, creating a distinct atmosphere from the moment you enter.
The entrance, featuring cement tiles and a bow window, incorporates storage and organizes the layout of the spaces. The dining room, directly connected to the kitchen and totaling 35 sq m, features a Tsubo-niwa, a veritable living wall. Beyond this, a music room overlooks the living room, introducing a subtle interplay of levels.

Spread across the light-filled extension, the living room impresses with its soaring 5-meter skylight. Large windows naturally extend the views towards the garden. A custom-designed bookcase and a fireplace define this space.

A garden-level office enhances this level, offering a quiet workspace.

A pantry and a separate toilet complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, accessed by a period staircase, two 13 sq m bedrooms sit alongside a bathroom with a shower and toilet. A veranda extends the views and captures the light throughout the day.

The top floor, designed as a flexible space, currently accommodates two bedrooms, a small sitting room, a shower room, and a separate toilet, allowing for a variety of layouts.

At the rear, facing southeast, the terrace and Japanese-inspired garden create a calming and structured setting. An outbuilding converted into a studio with a mezzanine and a bathroom with toilet blends seamlessly into the landscape. A second entrance at the back of the property offers the possibility of complete independence, suitable for professional use (subject to obtaining the necessary permits), hospitality, or a family project.

The balance between original architecture, contemporary intervention, and a prime location gives this house a strong identity.

A distinctive character for a space designed around the art of living and entertaining.

A 23 sq m storage room in the basement, a boiler room on the garden level, and a parking space in front of the house complete this freehold property.
