luxury houses for sale Le Chay-Les Gardes district of Royan, France

Built in the middle of the last century, this charming reinvented house of 103 m2 flourishes on a plot of 343 m2 nestled a few steps from Chay beach, whose waves can be discerned from the exteriors.Free from the ambient modernism of the time, its aesthetic reinterprets the spirit of the seaside villa of yesteryear. It features an asymmetrical gable roof and exposed beams under pronounced eaves. On the ocean side, the arched front door echoes the associated bays on the upper floor. A terrace sets the building back from the street while embracing the marine horizon. A base of fitted stones elevates concrete pillars that support a corner pergola with crossed rafters, creating a subtle play of shadows and light. On the upper level, this structure transforms into an intimate loggia for the main suite, offering an unobstructed view where the iodized air mingles with the fragrances of the wisteria draping the structure. Metamorphosed according to the rules of the art, the residence reveals a completely freed lower level dedicated to receptions, while the sleeping area gathers its three bedrooms on the upper floor. The entrance revolves around a slatted screen with slender posts and a slope leading to a crossing living room bathed in quadruple-oriented light. The limestone and terracotta fireplace harmonizes with the blond parquet flooring in golden hues. In contrast, the open kitchen asserts a strong material vocabulary: granite countertop, natural oak fittings, and patinated ceramic stoneware flooring.At the back, a spacious wooden terrace designed as an open-air room overlooks a garden with well-managed landscaping, preserved from prying eyes. The upper landing distributes the intimate spaces. The master suite, enhanced by a panoramic Madhuca published by Casamance, includes a private terrace, a shower room, and a custom dressing room. Two other bedrooms decorated in powdery tones share a contemporary shower room. The transverse plot benefits from double access, including an underground garage and secure private parking.An exceptional marine retreat, designed both as a main residence and as a vacation pied-à-terre for aesthetics lovers.
