House Fontenay-le-Comte - 5 bedrooms

This modernist property, built in 1972 and measuring approx.

255 m2, is set in approx.

1,700 m2 of wooded grounds in the pretty town of Fontenay-le-Comte, a town of art and history.

This exceptional villa, with its clean, angular lines, is a veritable manifesto of modern architecture as defined by Le Corbusier: the construction entirely on stilts, the XXL-sized roof terrace, the spiral staircase, the large picture windows and the unadorned facade make this a living space that elegantly combines aesthetics and functionality.

The dominant position and superb uninterrupted views over the countryside and the city make this a truly unusual place to live.

The entrance is revealed after crossing a footbridge that forms the link between the public space and the property.

The imposing anthracite entrance door contrasts with the pure white of the façade and invites you to discover the hall, where the travertine floor and double glazed door are attractive reminders of the building's period.

This leads into the vast dining room, also featuring travertine.

The bay window that floods it with light is an immediate eye-catcher, providing a natural first view of the Vendée valley.

The kitchen, adorned with light oak parquet flooring and a bold pink mural, has a very contemporary feel, where the taupe-coloured units and the vast central island in brown quartz create a lovely harmony.

This effect is reinforced by the workshop-style glass roof linking the scullery.

A few steps lead up to the light-filled lounge area, which faces an impressive copper-clad wood burner with an imposing flue reminiscent of a ship's chimney.

The imposing bay window invites you to take to the open sea and enjoy a roof terrace of extraordinary proportions, offering superb panoramic views.

The lower level, accessed by a large circular travertine staircase, offers a first bedroom area comprising a very generous suite in soft, light colours with a private shower room and dressing area.

A second suite with a bathroom in a bold vintage look completes this space.

Half a floor down are two further twin suites, each with its own bathroom, in a refreshing seventies style that perfectly respects the history of the property.

The second, lower level features a large, fully glazed artist's studio overlooking a suspended terrace and the treetops.

The property also offers a laundry room, boiler room, office space that could be converted into a bedroom and a dedicated sports area.

Outside, the majestic roof terrace features a large covered area and imposing planters, creating a Mediterranean island atmosphere that invites conviviality.

The second, more intimate terrace is the ideal place to enjoy the small pool overlooking the garden and invites contemplation.

A large garage completes the property.

The property is just 2 minutes from amenities, 8 minutes from motorways, 35 minutes from Niort, 50 minutes from La Rochelle and an hour from Les Sables d'Olonne and the Nantes conurbation.
