Bessancourt is located in the Val d'Oise department, just 6 km from Auvers-sur-Oise, between the Montmorency State Forest and the brand new Maubuisson forest, of which it is the 2nd of the 7 contributing municipalities, and the largest forest planted in France since the 17th century. Located in the town center, not overlooked and quiet, the house is set back and benefits from double access: a green driveway on one side and a pedestrian cul-de-sac lined with old maple trees on the other. Built on 600m2 of wooded land, it is the first architect-designed passive house in France designed by the Karawitz agency in 2009.
