Delicious Bioclimatic Architectural House to Live in with a Large Garden

Property Description

Vue sur Vert invites you to discover this bioclimatic house, less than 5 km from the heart of the village of Vidauban. The result of an architectural vision where ecology and comfort meet, to the delight of its inhabitants.

Located in a verdant residential area on a large 2,600 m² plot, it blends harmoniously into its surroundings thanks to its bioclimatic design, natural materials, and an orientation carefully chosen to maximize sunlight.

A layout designed for everyday living
With 121.65 m² of living space, the entrance is on the north side, via a bright hallway that leads to the first living areas: two bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room and a second currently used as an office opening onto the terrace. The hallway then leads to the spacious, south-facing living room and kitchen, the true heart of the home. A third bedroom, accessible from the living room, occupies the west side: this is the master suite, with a dressing room and bathroom. The property also includes a 30 m² garage in the basement.

Outside, there are two terraces totaling 70 m², one of which features a pergola on the south/east side, and a 185 m² parking area.

Natural materials and comfortable living
The house combines a timber frame, hempcrete walls, and raw earth brick partitions, offering excellent thermal inertia. Lime finishes, marmoleum flooring in the bedrooms, a Limousin wood terrace, and larch soffits: everything has been chosen for quality and durability.
Comfort and energy savings are ensured by a dual-flow ventilation system with heat recovery (and a summer cooling mode), wood heating, an air conditioning unit in the living room for heat waves, and a solar thermal system that provides free hot water for a significant portion of the year.

After more than ten years of occupancy, its qualities are undeniable: a peaceful atmosphere, an excellent quality of life, and lasting performance make this property a truly pleasant and timeless place to live.

A large, wooded garden
The garden offers 2,400 m² of landscaped area, irrigated by several automatic watering points, and features various spaces for different uses in absolute tranquility, secluded from the surrounding area and serenaded by birdsong.

It includes a complete constructed wetland system that treats the house's grey and brown water, as well as a 185 m² parking area.

It could accommodate a swimming pool (see the semi-inground pool design in the listing photos).
