High above the eastern shores of Lake Annecy, Maison Azurine makes the most of its privileged position, with lake views forming an ever changing backdrop to days spent together. Designed for up to 8 guests, this contemporary villa combines generous spaces with carefully considered interiors, creating a sophisticated base for families or friends drawn to the beauty of the French Alps.

Inside, elegant living areas open towards the outdoors, while refined furnishings, distinctive décor and high quality materials give each space its own character. There are plenty of places to settle in with a book, share drinks or simply admire the scenery. Four gorgeous double bedrooms each benefit from an en suite bath or shower, offering welcome privacy at the end of an active day.

Outside, the heated swimming pool provides an irresistible place to linger when the sun is shining. The large terrace above is positioned to embrace those wonderful lake views, setting the scene for leisurely breakfasts, al fresco lunches and relaxed evenings as the light changes across the distant water. Back inside, a hammam adds another dimension to your stay, whether you prefer a restorative steam or a workout before the day begins. The villa also offers a private double garage and electric vehicle charging point.

Maison Azurine sits above Veyrier du Lac, with the village just over 1km below and the shores of Lake Annecy and Plage de la Brune around 1.5km away. Spend summer days swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking or sailing, or take to the surrounding walking, hiking and cycling routes. Keen cyclists can follow a route towards the romantic town of Annecy, around 6.5km away, where canals, cobbled streets and colourful historic buildings await.

Menthon Saint Bernard and Talloires offer further opportunities for lakeside exploring, while the Réserve Naturelle du Roc de Chère rewards walkers with beautiful forest scenery. Whether returning from a morning cycle or an afternoon beside the water, Maison Azurine offers a stylish place to reconnect, recharge and savour Lake Annecy from above.

• In a perched setting with glorious views and steep grounds, guests need to be able to manage steps both inside and out. 
• Car hire is strongly recommended for reaching supermarkets and other amenities. Do also consider bike hire as a wonderful way of exploring – due to the villa’s hilly location, you may prefer an electric bike.
