Framed by the sparkling waters of Lake Annecy and the soaring peaks of the French Alps, Talloires Lakehouse Villa allows you to experience nature’s grandeur. From the moment you arrive, picture-book windows invite the outdoors in, bathing space in natural light and spectacular views.
Oak parquet and attractive furnishings set the tone for the villa’s sleek Scandinavian-inspired interiors, where elegance meets relaxed mountain living. The highlight of the house has to be the main living space that flows seamlessly from a state-of-the-art kitchen, with granite worktops and a central island, to an open-plan dining and lounge. Slide open the doors to the expansive terrace, where long summer evenings unfold over barbecued feasts and sundowner cocktails at the outdoor bar. We also love the separate TV lounge with its home cinema.
Across four levels, the villa accommodates up to 15 guests in nine thoughtfully designed bedrooms, some with en suite bathrooms or showers in the room. Upstairs, the master suite commands unobstructed lake views from its bath, while the attic retreat, recently renovated, offers its own suspended terrace and panoramic outlook. Downstairs, a self-contained 2-bedroom apartment provides additional privacy and there’s also an annexe with a bedroom and office space.
Talloires itself is a postcard-perfect Alpine village just five minutes’ walk away. Wander to the boulangerie for your morning pastries, hire bikes from the café, then hop on Lake Annecy’s famous cycling path just down the road (lockable bike storage is available). Summer brings buses and boat shuttles into Annecy, while local beaches, paddleboards, tennis courts and hiking trails promise days full of activity. As evening falls, enjoy lakeside dining or a quiet film at the village cinema or drive into the historic town of Annecy, known as “The Venice of the Alps”.
Whether you’re travelling with friends or family, Talloires Lakehouse Villa sets the stage for an unforgettable escape. Here, every morning begins with a view, and every evening ends with a sense of calmness only the lake can offer.
