luxury architect house for sale Belleau, France

Built at an altitude of over 310 meters, on a wooded plot of 4,400 sqm, this house offers 235 sqm of living space spread over two levels. The ground floor, with its large windows facing south, opens onto the swimming pool, the view, and the terrace at the rear of the house. Structured by a split level, this through-floor space features a vast living area with a fireplace, arranged between two load-bearing walls. The architect has eliminated all partitions in favor of modular units designed for storage and equipped with integrated appliances. Their design, as well as the interior layout, was entrusted to interior designer Robert Anxionnat. The split level houses a module, like a semi-open wooden cube, which manages all the domestic functions of the kitchen, dining room, and laundry room. The absence of partitions, the various levels of openings, such as the transoms, and the perspectives created by the floor plan, maintain a continuous connection between the living spaces and the outdoors. The sleeping area comprises four bedrooms. The first is a master suite with a dressing room, bathroom, and toilet, while two other bedrooms, each with a sink and closets, share a shower. Adjacent to a dressing area with a toilet, the fourth bedroom also has a sink. This level also includes a library with a desk and a separate toilet. The semi-basement houses a games room and a large garage that can accommodate up to four cars. Several outbuildings complete the property. It is also possible to purchase the neighboring house. Commissioned from the architect a few years after the first house, it offers approximately 100 square meters of living space and shares the same architectural style. On the southern slope of the Malzéville plateau (a Natura 2000 protected site) and at the foot of the Bois des Carrières forest, just a few minutes' drive from Nancy city center, this house is located in the most sought-after area of the greater Nancy region. The property benefits from all amenities (public transport, shops, services, schools, etc.) as well as numerous natural spaces and outdoor activities. Just 1 hour and 30 minutes from Paris by TGV, the capital of Lorraine is easily accessible. The Vosges Mountains and the airports of Luxembourg and Strasbourg are also within easy reach.
