In the heart of the beautiful countryside of the Yverdon hinterland, this magnificent character property on the edge of agricultural land, set on a double-zoned plot (village and agricultural), offers the best in exceptional living: the charm of a historic building combined with modern comfort, in a green setting, very close to the amenities of the city but in the absolute calm of the countryside.
A privileged location: less than 10 minutes from the highway, you enjoy urban advantages without suffering from nuisances. In a dominant position, the property is completely sheltered from view, bordered by fields where horses are your only neighbors.
A farmhouse with a unique destiny: built in 1809, it was first transformed by its former owner, an architect by profession, before being completely renovated and enlarged in 2010 by the current owner, an interior architect and internationally renowned furniture designer. This unique signature is felt in every space, where harmony and refinement blend.
With nearly 400 m² of living space spread over three levels, the house offers generous volumes:
- Ground floor: a warm reception area with dining room, living room, and old-style veranda opening onto a grand panorama. Two bedrooms with dressing rooms and shower rooms complete this level.
- First floor: a second cozy living room as well as two bedrooms, each with dressing room and bathroom.
- Attic: a large bright studio with independent entrance, currently used as an office, including a new kitchen and a shower room.
The charm of authenticity: lime walls, solid wood floors, and exposed beams recall the soul of yesteryear, giving this home a unique character.
Comfort and energy performance: the house benefits from complete insulation of the envelope. The geothermal heating system is distributed both through the floor and the facade walls, thus eliminating cold bridges and ensuring optimal comfort in all seasons.
An exceptional outdoor setting: the 4,703 m² plot has been carefully landscaped with ornamental gardens, an orchard, and trees of various species. Several spaces invite relaxation: by the heated pool, under the imposing lime tree, or in the gazebo facing the countryside.
An exceptional renovation: carried out by expert hands, between architecture and international design, this home brilliantly combines authenticity, modernity, and sustainable comfort. No work is required.
