Description
EXCLUSIVITÉ - Située sur la commune de Lugrin, à quelques pas des rives du Léman et en direction de la frontière, cette maison de village de 215 ㎡ environ a bénéficié d'une rénovation soignée alliant authenticité et confort contemporain. Développée sur quatre niveaux, elle offre une distribution intuitive et des volumes généreux.
Le rez-de-chaussée est dédié à la réception et au service. Il s’ouvre sur un salon d’accueil chaleureux, une cuisine fonctionnelle, ainsi qu’une pièce polyvalente pouvant accueillir un atelier ou un bureau. Une cave et une chaufferie complètent ce niveau.
Le premier étage propose l'espace nuit des invités ou des enfants, composé de deux chambres spacieuses se partageant une grande salle de bains.
Le second étage constitue le véritable cœur de vie. Il se compose d'une salle à manger et d'un salon offrant une vue imprenable sur le lac. Une seconde cuisine, agrémentée d'un balcon, permet de profiter pleinement des panoramas lémaniques au fil des saisons.
Le dernier étage est entièrement consacré à une suite parentale d'exception. Ce volume sous charpente intègre un espace nuit, un dressing sur mesure, un bureau privé et une salle d'eau.
La maison, située en deuxième ligne face au lac, est un bien idéal pour une résidence principale de caractère ou une villégiature élégante.

Next steps for moving to France
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
