Exclusive – VEIGY-FONCENEX – The historic estate of General Chastel – The soul of an exceptional home

A characterful property combining heritage and an art of living, just minutes from Geneva.

Some places tell a story before you even cross the threshold. Welcome to the former home of General Aimé Pierre Chastel. Set in peaceful, unspoilt surroundings, on the edge of the Swiss border and the shores of Lake Geneva, this historic property embodies the timeless elegance of grand family homes.

Here, every stone and every room has been thoughtfully designed to offer a unique lifestyle, combining prestigious entertaining with family privacy.

The Main House: Grandeur and space (~265 m²)

The main house showcases its charm over two floors, complemented by spacious attic rooms.

The ground floor is an ode to conviviality, with a reception room, an impressive dining room and a separate kitchen. A ground-floor bedroom completes this level.

Upstairs are four spacious bedrooms, including three suites with en-suite bathrooms. A library sitting room with a fireplace and mezzanine provides the ideal space to unwind and reflect.

The Guest House: Independence and charm (~150 m²)

Perfect for welcoming family and friends, setting up a professional practice or providing accommodation for a caretaker, this separate house has an open-plan kitchen and sitting room, plus three upstairs bedrooms. An independent space that ensures everyone’s privacy.

The Art of Living and Outbuildings: A living heritage

The estate extends across parkland where the art of living comes into its own. The outdoor space invites you to relax, with a heated swimming pool, an equipped pool house and a summer kitchen for unforgettable evenings beneath the stars.

The property pays tribute to its past with authentic outbuildings: a barn with soaring vaulted ceilings, a wine-tasting cellar and a former wine press. A garage, plant room and additional rooms complete the estate’s practical amenities.

Its convenient location: just 20 minutes from Geneva and 5 minutes from the lake.
