luxury contemporary house for sale Lavoux, France

From our local agent Andy Portsmouth: Contemporary hilltop home with spectacular views over Chauvigny This fabulous contemporary home of approximately 316 m² occupies an exceptional hilltop position overlooking the historic town of Chauvigny. Approached along its own tree-lined private driveway and surrounded by 3.4 hectares of fully fenced parkland and woodland, it offers a wonderfully private and peaceful setting while remaining close to the town and its amenities. Please see the video tour on the You Tube channel Andy Portsmouth's French Country Houses. The house was designed around its view of Chauvigny. At its heart is a spectacular 80 m² double-height living and dining room, where an enormous picture window was deliberately positioned to frame the medieval town and its historic skyline perfectly in the centre of the view. It is a striking architectural feature and one that changes beautifully with the light and the seasons. The main room opens into a 19 m² kitchen, creating almost 100 m² of open-plan living space, complemented by a separate 10 m² back kitchen. Large glazed doors open onto the terraces and the heated swimming pool, allowing the interior living space, garden and extraordinary view to flow naturally together. The back kitchen also provides practical access to a two-car garage and a large cellar. The ground-floor principal suite is equally generous. The 21 m² bedroom opens directly onto the terrace and pool and is complemented by a large dressing room and a superb 14 m² en-suite bathroom, with bathtub, walk-in shower, double washbasin and WC. Also on the ground floor are two further bedrooms, a family bathroom, separate WC and utility room. From here there is also internal access to a second garage with space for up to three cars. Upstairs, the scale of the house continues with an extraordinary 80 m² landing enjoying wonderful views on two sides. Far more than simply a circulation space, it offers considerable possibilities as an additional sitting area, library, games area or relaxation space. This level also includes a further bedroom, a large shower room with WC and a study. The house is well equipped for comfortable year-round living, with central heating provided by a pellet boiler, together with 4.6 kW of solar panels, aluminium double glazing, a water softener and a conforming septic system. Security and convenience are also well catered for, with an alarm system, internal and external cameras, electric entrance gates, electric shutters and electrically operated garage doors. Please ask me for the video tour, this is a house where the scale, setting and, above all, the carefully framed view towards Chauvigny are difficult to fully appreciate through photographs alone. Chauvigny is one of the most distinctive historic towns in the Vienne, dramatically situated above the River Vienne and particularly renowned for its remarkable medieval upper town. Its hilltop Cité Médiévale is dominated by the remains of several medieval castles and the Romanesque church of Saint-Pierre, while the lower town provides the practical amenities needed for everyday life, including shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, schools and medical services. The town has a lively atmosphere throughout the year, with its market, cultural events and historic centre attracting visitors while Chauvigny retains the character of a genuine, lived-in French town. Poitiers is around 25 to 30 minutes away, providing an airport and easy access to the TGV, major shopping and services, the university and hospital, while the surrounding countryside offers beautiful landscapes for walking, cycling and exploring.
