The Residence of Madame Lalique a Truly Unique Property

Property Description

Exclusive: our Prestige Real Estate agency G Immobilier de Prestige presents a rare opportunity: the residence of Madame Lalique.
Not far from all amenities, in a preserved environment, in an agricultural countryside and close to major roads with no nuisance, this superb intimate property spans about 680 m2.
It is divided into two distinct parts, connected by the central block of the beautiful kitchen: an ancestral mas of about 250 m2 and a contemporary part of about 430 m2.
This property is exceptional for its history, its design, its architecture and the quality of materials and workmanship specially conceived for it.
Luxury present everywhere but never ostentatious.
The ancestral mas section of 250 m2 offers several living and sleeping spaces that guests may customize as they wish with lounges, bedrooms and entertaining areas.
Here, the ancient character has been preserved. The staircase was custom-made in ash, with a traditional stepped stringer construction. The balustrade and several pieces of furniture were made in the same wood, tinted and varnished to maintain perfect harmony with the old part.
The contemporary 430 m2 section completely changes the atmosphere.
It stands out for its brightness, volumes and warmly magnificent feel.
Imagined and designed as a true artist’s house, it offers bespoke features and especially tailor-made realizations that are rarely found in a private property.
On the ground floor, a superb reception space of about 140 m2 unfolds into a dining area, a bar corner and a living room, around an absolutely unique fireplace nearly 7 meters high.
But the centerpiece is certainly its extraordinary double-spiral staircase, which gives this space its character and almost evokes ball nights.
Part of the fittings and joinery of this home were entrusted to Atelier Franchini, with creations entirely manufactured and installed to measure for the property.
The monumental staircase is one of the most remarkable achievements: laminated ash structure and mezzanine ramp, central rack-and-pinion, curved and frosted glass balustrade and glued glass steps set in stainless steel frames.
By means of this double staircase, one accesses a duplex space with a office-library, allowing private work while staying close to the life of the property.
The woodwork continues in the living room with a large custom-made ash library, into which the air conditioning system is discreetly integrated. Its curved top is highlighted by recessed spotlights, the shelves are chamfered glass, and even the top of the piece, visible from the mezzanine, has undergone true cabinetmaking work with inlaid veneer.
In the reception areas, bespoke white beech display cases with bulged and flat glass, interior lighting and adjustable glass shelves complete this ensemble. Several matching pieces have also been designed in the same materials and finishes.
Upstairs, accessible by the staircase or by elevator, a magnificent master suite of about 95 m2 with a private terrace, bathroom with sauna and large dressing room.
Again, every detail has been thought through.
The library and the dressing room were custom-made in cherry wood stained and varnished. The air conditioning disappears into the woodwork and a beautiful herringbone beech parquet adds warmth to this vast suite.
The sauna has also been fully clad in stained and varnished beech, with display cases on either side made from the same wood and finishes.
A wine cellar able to hold about 3,000 bottles and a safe room complete the property.
Outside, in the landscaped park, an 11.50 x 5.50 meter swimming pool, tiled and heated, protected by a rolling shutter.
Next to it, a pool house with a shower, five-seat sauna, living room and summer kitchen allows full enjoyment of the outdoors and hosting.
at the rear of the property, with an independent entrance, a garage accommodates two to three cars.
A beautiful greenhouse for plants.
Two boreholes. Automatic irrigation.
The property is smart-home enabled and air-conditioned and features comprehensive equipment:
Heat pumps.
Anti-break-in glass.
Exterior, perimeter and volume alarm.
Three secured gates.
Elevator.
Safe.
A truly exceptional property where old architecture and contemporary execution meet without one overpowering the other.
Here, it is the volumes, the wood and glass work, the artisanal creations and all the bespoke details that give this residence its very particular character.
HIGH-END FEATURES.
A HIGH-COUTURE PLACE TO LIVE AND RECEIVE guests.
