A Suburban Villa Inspired by Italy
Set on a terraced plot of over 1920m², this residence was designed from the outset as a quiet resort and reception area on the edge of town. The main house, soberly majestic, features an inverted U-shaped architecture reminiscent of Italian Renaissance villas, and opens onto a garden designed like a jewel box.
A refined interior
The main residence offers around 350 m² of living space on one level, organized around a central domed vestibule adorned with unique neo-antique gypseries. Five main rooms, including a dining room, a drawing room, a winter salon and a private suite, bear witness to 18th-century refinement, sublimated by sculpted decorations celebrating nature, the arts and the seasons.
A Classical and Secret Garden
The garden, crossed by two T-shaped axes, features fountains, groves, terraces, an orangery, a kitchen garden and a courtyard of honor bordered by service buildings. It retains the original spirit intended by Henri Haguenot: that of a small, intimate and harmonious earthly paradise.
