In a prime location directly adjacent to the reed nature reserve and with an unobstructed view over Lake Neuchâtel, this architect-designed house, completely rebuilt in 2016, presents itself as an exceptional living experience amidst a unique natural landscape.
The approach through the quiet neighbourhood already conveys a special atmosphere. The small detached houses along the Route de Crevel evoke a discreet retreat by the water – calm, private, and decelerated. The house occupies one of the most coveted positions: in the front row, directly on the protected reed belt and with an unobstructed view of the lake.
The striking architecture combines raw exposed concrete surfaces with warm wooden shingles, creating a timeless aesthetic with high recognition value.
Generous, floor-to-ceiling Skyframe window fronts bring the landscape into the house, allowing indoor and outdoor spaces to merge harmoniously. Light, sightlines, and materials create an impressive sense of space on both floors.
Special attention was paid to sustainability, energy efficiency, and durable construction quality. The house is Minergie certified and features a geothermal heat pump, comfort ventilation, and a photovoltaic system.
The easily maintained garden with several covered terraces extends the living space outdoors. An outdoor shower with hot and cold water complements the nature-oriented living experience after a swim in the lake.
Room Description
Access is gained directly from the carport into the inviting entrance hall with integrated wardrobe.
The ground floor can be fully used as a separate guest or granny flat. Its own entrance, living and dining area with kitchen, a spacious room with an adjoining terrace, and a stylish wet area create an independent living unit with high quality of stay.
On this level, there are also the laundry room, the technical room, two cellars, and a practical outdoor storage room, ideal for bicycles etc.
The elegantly designed stone staircase with glass railing leads to the upper floor. Upon arrival, the special effect of this house unfolds: the view extends through the open rooms, over the terrace and the reeds, directly to the lake.
The living area impresses with ceiling heights up to the roof, high-quality and practical built-in wardrobes, and a fluid transition between living, dining, and kitchen. The modernly equipped kitchen harmoniously integrates into the overall architectural concept and meets the highest demands for design and functionality.
The dining area with generous Skyframe glazing acts like a viewpoint over the natural landscape. The adjoining terrace extends the living space during the summer months, while the southwest-facing veranda offers a protected retreat with a special atmosphere even in the cooler seasons.
The bedroom can be elegantly zoned by means of a sliding door and is complemented by a dressing room and a stylishly designed wet area with access from two sides. Another room completes the offering on the upper floor.
