luxury furnished house for sale Adainville, France

In the heart of the Rambouillet national forest, this exceptional property of 3.5 hectares with hundred-year-old trees was created during the 1937 Universal Exhibition by the famous architect Pierre Petit. The 465m2 house is built on 4 habitable levels. Very bright with beautiful high ceilings, the house is remarkable for its conservation in its original architecture on which several renowned artists have intervened such as the sculptors Jean René Debarre and Georges Guyot and the master glassmaker and mosaicist Joseph Jean Kef Ray; many of the lights are by Perzel. The ground floor is composed of a superb entrance, a lounge bar and many rooms formerly devoted to service. Upstairs the kitchen opens onto a dining room and a double living room which opens onto a large terrace with a panoramic and plunging view of the park. The upper levels serve 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, as well as a room with a billiard table. The property has outbuildings, garages, a rose garden, fields, boxes, and an equestrian grass arena.

Forty-five minutes from Paris Montparnasse and four kilometers from Thoiry, this former 15th-century mill is an exceptional dream property. Three fully renovated buildings, nearly 575sqm of useful space, two and a half hectares of parkland crossed by a stream feeding a pond, a swimming pool, horse stables, and absolute tranquility less than an hour from the capital, with no compromise on comfort or charm. This estate is for those who refuse to choose between quality countryside living and proximity to Paris. It is suitable both for a large family in a main residence and for a high-end secondary residence project, guest rooms, seminars, or equestrian activities. The renovation of the mill has preserved the authenticity of the stone and exposed beams while providing true contemporary comfort. On the ground floor, a bright dining kitchen of over 35 sqm precedes a double living room of nearly 68 sqm, with a beautiful stone fireplace and views of the original water mill mechanism. Upstairs, four bedrooms, a bathroom, and two shower rooms offer all the necessary comforts for a large family. In the basement, a billiard room, wine cellar, laundry room, and boiler room complete the ensemble. Facing the mill, the fully converted old sheepfold constitutes a complete and independent house on its own. The ground floor offers an open equipped kitchen, a living room with pellet stove, a master bedroom with dressing room and bathroom. Upstairs, accessible from an open mezzanine overlooking the living room, are two bedrooms, a playroom that could serve as an additional bedroom, a home office area, and a shower room with sauna. With totally independent access, two additional bedrooms each have their own private shower room. Independent and flooded with light thanks to its characteristic glass roof, the artist’s studio is invariably a visitor favorite. A large bedroom with shower on the ground floor, a mezzanine bedroom, and a bright space that is equally suitable for creative work, telecommuting, hosting guests, or rental use. The park is the estate’s other great asset. Two and a half hectares of contiguous land, crossed by a stream that continuously feeds a pond regulated by its sluice gates and spillways. The 10 x 5 meter swimming pool benefits fully from the sunshine, while the two horse stables with a shed for van demonstrate an equestrian vocation that surrounding meadows and paths make entirely natural. The vegetable garden with its greenhouse, fruit trees, meadow, and woodland at the back of the property complete a set of rare generosity, out of time and with no visible neighbors. The layout of the buildings, with their multiple independent accesses, naturally lends itself to charming guest rooms and gîtes, seminars and wellness retreats, or an equestrian activity. Less than an hour from Paris, in a highly sought-after Yvelines sector, the potential for appreciation is real.
