Description

Discover the Villa Florentine, an architectural treasure located in Montreux, designed in 1894 by Napoléon Jules Philiben Clerc, a renowned local architect. This historic residence, initially built as a private home, has been sublimely restored by its current owner, transforming it into one of the most unique houses in Switzerland.

This property, a testament to the grand development era of Montreux, was commissioned by Alexander Emery, an influential figure and owner of prestigious hotels in the region. The grand salon, with an breathtaking view of the lake, preserves the original design with a plaster ceiling and gold leaf, while the vaulted entrance hall leads to an ornate corridor and a staircase adorned with stained glass and a skylight.

The Villa Florentine skillfully marries tradition and modernity. An elevator serves all floors, offering modern comfort. It currently features 6 bedrooms, with potential for extension on the second floor, which is dedicated to numerous offices and meeting rooms.

The living areas, including an indoor Pompeian-style pool opening onto a sunny terrace and a beautiful garden, offer panoramic views of the lake and the Alps.

Its privileged location in the heart of Montreux places this master property just a few steps from Lake Geneva, providing direct access to picturesque walks and spectacular views of the surrounding mountains. The interior of the villa reflects exquisite comfort and refinement, with large windows bathing the rooms in natural light.

The garden at the back of the house is an oasis of tranquility, featuring a shaded terrace, a barbecue area, and a pool, offering a relaxation space in the city center.

In summary, the Villa Florentine is not only a prestige property, but a haven of life that combines classic elegance and exceptional central location, allowing you to fully experience the beauty of Montreux and Lake Geneva.

It is worth noting that the property includes two outdoor parking spaces and currently rents three parking spaces located opposite the building.
