Description
This magnificent property of about three hectares enjoys an exceptional, dominant position, sheltered from prying eyes and offering a magnificent view of the lake and the Alps. The property is ideally located, close to all amenities and about three hundred meters from the lake, in one of the most sought-after areas of the Montreux Riviera, between lake and mountains, with a wide range of sports, leisure and cultural activities. Access is via a majestic gate that opens onto a long driveway leading to the L-shaped main buildings, which include a manor house and a large caretaker's house. Several other outbuildings, cottages, a swimming pool and a tennis court complete the property. Originally the holiday home of a large family from the region whose name it bears, the property was built in the early 1900s and renovated in the 1950s. The main building is spread over four floors and a basement, making it possible to create remarkable spaces for reception, rest, relaxation, spa, home cinema, cellar and more. It is an exceptional property due to its location, the quality of its landscaping, the size of the surrounding park and its potential for conversion. The two plots of land of the property, with a total area of more than 31,000 m², are currently intended for indefinite use pending the new Montreux building regulations and for very low density residential use under the old building regulations. The main house is listed as note 4 in the architectural list of the canton of Vaud, which does not justify the intervention of the Department of Monuments and Sites. Given this fact and the large volume of the two main buildings of over 6,700 m3, major transformations or even the demolition of the current buildings and the construction of an exceptional contemporary residence are conceivable. In any case, the renovation will restore the mansion to its former glory and, in our opinion, will make it one of the most magnificent properties on the Swiss Riviera.Clarens, 1815 VDExceptional property, Panoramic view, House with great potential, Maison de maître, Large living space
