Apartment for sale - 1040 Echallens

Located 20 minutes from the center of Lausanne, this unique property, built in 1933, is part of the modernist architectural heritage inspired by Le Corbusier. Completely renovated between 2023 and 2025 under the guidance of the cantonal monument authorities, it now subtly combines historical character with modern requirements.

In a peaceful and green environment, this magnificent 6.5-room duplex apartment with its own entrance attracts with its unique charm and spacious rooms. With a living area of about 150 m², it offers a warm atmosphere and an ideal layout for comfortable family living.

Upon entering, one discovers a carefully designed first level: A closed, fully equipped kitchen adjoins a spacious living room and dining room with a functional fireplace, creating a true centerpiece of social life. This level also includes two bedrooms – perfect as sleeping, working, or library space – a bathroom with an attached toilet, a master suite with its own bathroom, and a guest toilet.

An elegant staircase flooded with natural light leads to the upper floor. There, a bedroom opens onto a balcony with unobstructed views of the surrounding fields and hills. On this level, you will also find a charming second living room with a fireplace, which can easily serve as a bedroom. This room provides access to a beautiful 20 m² winter garden, which continues with a generous 48 m² rooftop terrace – a true haven of peace, ideal for relaxing in any season.

The architecture reflects the functional and puristic spirit of the modernist movement: simple volumes, flat roof, large horizontal openings, and a pilotis-supported extension. Several original materials and colors have been carefully preserved or reinterpreted, giving the overall complex a rare aesthetic coherence.

The recent works have integrated sustainable technical solutions: heat pump heating, underfloor heating, photovoltaic system, as well as special care in restoring the existing woodwork. The basement additionally offers various practical spaces – cellar, laundry room, and a multipurpose room.

The garden, designed in the spirit of landscaping, offers a quiet and pleasant outdoor area. A closed garage and two parking spaces complete this property, in addition to the sale price.

This apartment combines modern comfort, authenticity, and privileged living. A rare gem that should not be missed.
