A unique place, nestled in a green environment, with a breathtaking view
Beautiful duplex apartment occupying the top floors of the west tower of the Château de Chardonne.
The property has been completely renovated while preserving the original character brought in particular by the magnificent carved wooden fireplace.
The apartment offers a living area of approximately 100 m2, with bright rooms of good size and a breathtaking view of Lake Geneva.
A private garden is accessible by a charming period footbridge.
A cellar, a galetas and a dovecote complete the lot.
Possibility to acquire in addition an outdoor parking space in the courtyard of the Castle.
A bit of history
The Château forms an imposing architectural group that dominates the village of Chardonne.
According to the archival documents available, the initial building (fortified house) was built in 1527. An extension was made in 1624 with the south stair turret; new restorations followed in 1910, in particular with the reconstruction of the west tower (keep) by the architect H. Collombet. It was also at this time that a painter's studio was set up on the 4th floor of the keep. Transformations in this space continued in 1965, with the installation of woodwork and wall benches, the repair of the fireplace and the installation of hexagonal terracotta tiles on the floor.
It was not until 1974 that the 5th floor of the west tower was created by architect R. Bashler, thus composing the current duplex.
After having been the property of the De Sturler, De Wattwyl and De Muralt families over time, Château de Chardonne was incorporated as a condominium in 1975.
