luxury house for sale Bas Meudon district of Meudon, France

In Meudon, on a private road close to the train station, an architect-designed house and outbuilding set within an extraordinary garden. The property gate opens at the start of a private road a short distance from the station, giving onto a lush garden through which the house is approached and gradually revealed. Designed by a renowned interior architect and organised entirely around this garden, it requires no work. An entrance hall serves a first bedroom with its own shower room and gives onto a corridor; lined with built-in wardrobes, the corridor leads in turn to a separate lavatory and a small room fitted as a workshop. Two large openings give into a sitting room of exceptional proportions, with the ceiling rising to 4.5 m. On two sides, expanses of glazing bring the garden fully into the room; a working fireplace occupies the third wall, flanked by a pair of bespoke bookcases that reach to the ceiling. On the garden side, a few steps climb to a comfortable dining room extending into an open kitchen with generous, well-organised storage; here too the garden fills the large windows. Roof lights throughout the house draw in light from above. A back kitchen, equipped with a second sink, gives access to the utility room. Below the dining room, the principal bedroom has a spacious dressing room and a private bathroom; a glazed frieze along one wall keeps the garden constantly in view. Equally comfortable in winter and summer, when nights remain cool, it offers ideal conditions year-round. Behind the sitting room's far wall, a cleverly concealed staircase rises to a mezzanine housing a study and a library, with access from there to a further bright bedroom and a shower room with lavatory. At the entrance to the property, a covered shelter provides parking and an electric vehicle charging point; a second car can be parked in the drive. An outbuilding of approximately 50 m² has been fitted as a home cinema with a retractable giant screen, a shower room with lavatory, and a small gym.
