English Cottage Spirit: between Nature and Elegance

Property Description

Family Home With Garden And Views In GEX

On the heights of Gex, facing the Jura mountains and the distant peaks of the Alps, this family home with more than seven bedrooms is set in a leafy residential area. Bathed in light and opening onto an easy-to-maintain landscaped garden, it combines authentic materials, contemporary comfort and the undeniable charm of an English cottage, just a few minutes from Geneva. Ready to move into, with no work required, it is simply waiting for its new occupants.

AN English Cottage-Style House, Bright And Opening Onto The GARDEN
The entrance hall, deliberately intimate and functional, naturally distributes the living spaces and preserves the sense of discovery. Very quickly, the reception room opens widely onto the garden: a halo of light, a large convivial table, a patinated dresser... The atmosphere is warm and immediately welcoming. The double-aspect living room, with its large windows, enjoys omnipresent light. The wood-burning stove structures the space and creates a convivial focal point in the heart of the house. Natural stone floors, wood panelling, soft tones and authentic materials create an elegant and warm atmosphere, in a confident English cottage style. The kitchen, inspired by British country houses, is organised around a range cooker and a custom-made oak island. The dark stone worktops contrast delicately with the light-coloured furniture and patinated shelves.

IDEAL For Family LIFE
The house has more than seven bedrooms, confirming its status as a true family home. The spaces are naturally organised to accommodate the passing years, growing children and visiting friends. From the bedrooms, the view opens onto the hills and rooftops of the village, reminding each floor of its roots in the landscape. Under the exposed beams, the master suite occupies a vast, light-filled space. The beams and high ceilings create a peaceful refuge, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, like a floor of its own. A bedroom with a separate entrance offers welcome independence, ideal for an au pair or to accompany the different stages of family life. The additional space can be used for today's and tomorrow's needs: a games room, a workspace, a more intimate lounge. Nothing is set in stone everything evolves with those who live there.

A Landscaped Garden Facing The MOUNTAINS
Overlooking the surrounding hills, the garden opens up naturally. The gentle slope guides the eye, while mature trees frame the view and create a soothing green presence. The whole has been intelligently designed: a structured, harmonious landscape that remains easy to maintain throughout the seasons. The flowerbeds punctuate the spaces without constraining them, the lawn invites play, and the treehouse extends the family home spirit. On sunny days, the south- and west-facing terraces become real extra rooms. Here you can have lunch in the light shade, extend your evenings facing the mountains, and watch the light change.
