This magnificent 4-room apartment of over 150 m 2 is located on the second floor of the "Maison seigneuriale de Forel" also known as "Château de Billens". Although its origins date back to the 17th century, this exceptional apartment embodies the elegance and charm of the 18th century, when it was luxuriously refurbished before being carefully renovated in the 21st century by its current owner, who has enhanced all its historic substance of rare authenticity with today's comforts.
You're sure to fall under the spell of this property's architectural details, such as its sumptuous landing door, generous volumes, light on the courtyard and garden sides, beautiful parquet floors, walnut doors, marble fireplaces, earthenware stove with curved legs and many other qualities that make it an exceptional property. In addition, the kitchen and bathroom have been reinterpreted in a contemporary style and fitted with top-of-the-range equipment (including multimedia) that blends in perfectly.
Complete with a galetas and two attached parking spaces (CHF 15'000.00 extra. of the price, compulsory) within a small condominium of 3 apartments, this property still has exclusively a very beautiful wine cellar (CHF 20'000.00 extra, compulsory), a vaulted cellar with painted remains dating from the 17th century and, in the communal garden of over 1800 m 2 , a 19th-century pavilion where it's very pleasant to lounge.
Moudon is a small town in the Canton of Vaud, currently home to over 6000 inhabitants. Located in the Broye-Vully district, with all services and amenities at its disposal, it has also been awarded the title of "one of the most beautiful villages in Switzerland", which encourages the local authorities to preserve its heritage while ensuring controlled tourism and economic development. Ideally located just 30 minutes from Lausanne on the road to Berne and 20 minutes from Yverdon, Moudon is also very well served by public transport.
Located at the gateway to the town, "le Château de Billens" is a listed building and, as such, is very well documented. It is one of the 5 seigniorial houses in Moudon, which became noble fiefs in the 17th century and were used as the seat of seigniorial power over the surrounding villages.
Constructively, it comprises a main building and an annex rising to 3 levels of unequal height, as well as an "Italianate" staircase tower, onto which is grafted a wing called "Perregaux", named after the architect who designed it in the mid-19th century. This ensemble, completed by a recently renovated rural house, has thus gradually evolved over the centuries, according to the uses and means of its successive owners. In recent years, major work has again been carried out on the property (boiler room, stairwell, inner courtyard, garden, etc.) as well as in the apartments, particularly in the proposed property.
In four centuries, illustrious families (d'Estavayer, Gottrau de Billens, Burnand de Sépey) have succeeded one another in this residence and a number of personalities were born here or lived here, such as the painter Eugène Burnand and the woman of letters Marie Dutoit.
