Villa/House For Sale in Nernier

An iconic piece of Nernier’s history – a characterful 18th century village house featured in local archives and black-and-white postcards, now beautifully restored to offer a warm, contemporary lifestyle on the shores of Lake Geneva.

Living in the Heart of a Medieval Village Ideally situated in the very heart of medieval Nernier, just moments from the lake and historic harbour, this village house offers an authentic rhythm of life. Living here means enjoying a quiet, beautifully preserved village that remains vibrant throughout the seasons, supported by a genuine local community and a welcoming international spirit. The residence adapts effortlessly to your lifestyle: equally suited as an exceptional primary home or a low-maintenance, lock-up-and-leave holiday retreat.

Period Character Meets Contemporary Comfort Thoughtfully renovated by its current custodians, the house seamlessly pairs original period features with high-quality contemporary finishes. Restored by local craftsmen, the design preserves the building’s authentic soul while introducing a refined, uncluttered elegance.

The restoration work – including high-performance double glazing and a upgraded roof incorporating traditional glass tiles that filter natural light through to the upper floors delivers an impressive energy performance rating (DPE: D / GES: B), a rare benchmark for a historic stone property.

Spanning approximately 160 m2 of living space across four levels (supplemented by 34 m2 of flexible utility space), the layout balances architectural charm with daily practicality: Reception Level: A double living room anchored by a fireplace and classic herringbone parquet flooring, a dining area, and a bright, fully fitted kitchen opening onto a private balcony with glimpses of Lake Geneva.

First Floor: Three light-filled bedrooms sharing a stylish shower room crafted with high-quality finishes in keeping with the home’s character, a separate WC, and a charming exterior balcony. The Romantic Attic Suite: On the top level, a spectacular master bedroom framed by magnificent historic timber roof beams and bathed in natural light. Flexible

Ground Level: Formerly the village Epicerie, this independent lower ground floor offers outstanding versatility: a main room opening onto a private terrace, a shower room with WC, a laundry room (easily adaptable into a kitchen), and an additional room. It provides the perfect layout for hosting guests, setting up a home office, a boutique business, or an art gallery, honouring Nernier’s rich artistic heritage. A separate cellar under another portion of the house completes this level. Parking: A private parking space included right in the village centre.

Connected Village Life Between Lake and Mountains Nernier offers a rich cultural and community scene throughout the year. For everyday errands, commuting, or shopping, the proximity of Geneva, Thonon, and Annemasse is a valuable asset, as is quick access to the Alpine ski resorts. Lake travel is delightfully simple: the summer passenger boat straight to Nyon and year-round ferry connections from neighbouring Yvoire make trips to Switzerland and Geneva Airport completely effortless, while offering a unique way to welcome visiting guests. Sailing enthusiasts will also appreciate the opportunity to secure a mooring spot in the village harbour to set sail across Lake Geneva whenever the mood strikes.
