This magnificent estate of some three hectares enjoys a very exceptional dominant location out of sight while offering a superb 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 Riviera in Montreux, between lake and mountains allowing many activities, sports, fun and cultural.

Access is through a majestic gate opening onto a long driveway that leads the visitor to the main buildings arranged in an L-shape and consisting of a mansion and a large caretaker's house. Several other outbuildings, maisonettes, swimming pool and tennis complete this property. Originally a holiday resort of a large regional family whose name it bears, the property was built in the early twentieth century and renovated in the 50s.

The main building is articulated on four levels as well as a basement allowing the creation of quite remarkable spaces whether they are dedicated to areas of reception, rest, relaxation, spa, home cinema, cellars, or other.

This house is exceptional for the quality of the landscape and the size of the park that surrounds it as well as for its potential for transformation. The two plots that constitute it for a total of more than 31,000m2 are currently located in an unspecified area of use pending the new PGA of Montreux and in a very low density residential area in the former PGA. The main house is listed in the architectural census of the Canton of Vaud in note 4, which does not make it an object justifying the intervention of the Monuments and Sites Division. This element, as well as the large volumes of more than 6,700m3 of the two main buildings make it possible to envisage significant transformations, see a demolition of the current buildings and the construction of an exceptional contemporary residence.

In any case, a renovation will allow this estate to regain its former splendour and, from our point of view, make it one of the most sumptuous properties on the Riviera.

It is an exceptional estate for its location, the quality of its landscaping, the size of the surrounding park and its potential for conversion. The two plots that make up the property, totalling more than 31,000sqm, are currently zoned for undefined use pending the new Montreux building regulations, and for very low-density residential use under the old building regulations.

This, and the large volumes of over 6,700m3 of the two main buildings, make it possible to envisage substantial transformations, or even the demolition of the current buildings and the construction of an exceptional contemporary residence.
