ALLINGES - Elegant 19th-Century Character Estate at the Gateway to Lake Geneva

Just minutes from the shores of Lake Geneva and the Swiss border, this remarkable period estate enjoys an exceptionally peaceful natural setting.

Built in the 19th century and nestled within over 5,000 m2 of beautifully landscaped grounds, it gracefully combines historic charm, generous living spaces, and a timeless lifestyle. Behind its handsome stone facade, the property offers approximately 400 m2 of living space, where every room reflects the authenticity and character of this exceptional residence.

Original features, exposed beams, period fireplaces, high ceilings, and a magnificent central staircase all bear witness to the home's rich heritage, carefully preserved over the years.

Filled with natural light and overlooking the park, the reception rooms create an inviting yet refined atmosphere. The living room, dining room, and kitchen form elegant living spaces equally suited to entertaining guests or enjoying family life. From several rooms, the surrounding countryside unfolds, with glimpses of Lake Geneva enhancing the scenery. The sleeping quarters comprise several generously proportioned bedrooms, including a principal suite with its own en-suite bathroom. The harmonious layout across multiple levels lends itself equally well to a distinguished family residence, an elegant country home, or a prestigious property for entertaining.

Outside, the landscaped park provides a truly enchanting setting. Magnificent mature trees including cedars, horse chestnuts, magnolias, and other century-old specimens create an atmosphere of exceptional beauty while ensuring complete privacy throughout the seasons. A separate outbuilding of approximately 90 m2 further enhances the estate.

Ready to be renovated according to the future owners' vision, it could easily become a guest house, an artist's studio, offices, or a caretaker's cottage.

Rarely available in this sought-after area, this exceptional property will appeal to discerning buyers seeking a character-filled residence where history, nature, and proximity to Geneva come together in perfect harmony.

Just a few minutes from local amenities, schools, and transport links to the Lake Geneva region, this unique estate offers an outstanding balance of privacy, heritage, and quality of life.
