DescriptionLocated on Lake Geneva, Casa 26 is a truly unique lakeside escape. Designed to emphasize the awe-inspiring lake views, this one-of-a-kind home reflects the geometry and materials of the boathouses and villas surrounding it. The urban home was built using only larch, black steel, and concrete, and features a dramatically long façade leading your eyes to the shore. Once inside, large, cathedral-like windows, high ceilings, and an abundance of natural light create a grand yet cozy feel, and the warm larch interior gives the home a comfortable composition. Enjoy a glass of wine on the spacious terrace under the shade of plane trees, or take a dip in Lake Geneva, direct from your private dock. Astounding vistas greet you at every turn, giving you a unique vantage point from which to enjoy luxuriously panoramic views. Placed just six meters from the water’s edge, this fantastic estate was carefully and thoughtfully designed to draw your attention to the lake in front of you. With five bedrooms, four baths, and a stunning two-story living room, Casa 26 is a functional yet sophisticated contemporary masterpiece. Située sur les rives du lac Léman, Casa 26 est un véritable lieu d'évasion unique. Conçue pour mettre en valeur une vue imprenable sur le lac, cette maison si singulière reprend la géométrie et les matériaux des hangars à bateaux et villas qui l’entourent. Cette maison urbaine a été construite uniquement à partir de mélèze, d'acier noir et de béton et présente une façade extrêmement longue qui guide le regard vers le rivage. Une fois à l'intérieur, les fenêtres de type cathédrale, l'impressionnante hauteur sous plafond et l'abondance de lumière naturelle rendent ce lieu à la fois majestueux et chaleureux, tandis que l'intérieur en mélèze aux tons chauds contribue au confort de la maison. Dégustez un verre de vin sur la terrasse spacieuse à l'ombre des platanes ou plongez dans le lac Léman directement depuis votre ponton privé. De tous les endroits de la propriété, vous pouvez admirer de magnifiques paysages, faisant de ce lieu un point de vue unique pour profiter de panoramas exceptionnels. Posée à seulement six mètres du bord de l'eau, cette formidable propriété a été soigneusement et astucieusement conçue pour attirer votre attention vers le lac qui lui fait face. Avec cinq chambres, quatre salles de bain et une magnifique salle de séjour sur deux niveaux, fonctionnelle, Casa 26 est un chef-d’œuvre architectural à la fois chic et contemporain.
