Maison de Maître with historic charm - An exceptional property in Grens
Nestled in the picturesque village of Grens, above Nyon, between Geneva and Lausanne, this sumptuous Maison de Maître overlooks the Asse plain and offers a rare living environment, steeped in history and authenticity. The first traces of construction date back to 1788, according to the dated bricks still visible, while the official archives mention 1805. A fresco made by a foreman of the time, still present on one of the walls, illustrates an episode of the French Revolution, testifying to the rich past of the house. Initially a dependency of the Abbey of Bonmont, the property was acquired in 1857 by the current family, who have been living there for six generations. Initially a second home, it became a main residence in 1880 and still retains this vocation today. The building has undergone several modernisations, including a major restructuring in 1987, giving it its current configuration which includes the Maison de Maître part and an independent staff accommodation.
