Village property
You can tell that this property was once owned by a master carpenter, with exposed beams and character features, this really is a property that has been cared for over the generations.
The light and airy ground floor leads to a very rare enclosed garden with large courtyard, and a large outside terraced deck.
On this level there is a large, open plan living area, with nice sized kitchen. The lounge has a sunken area with a fireplace, and a beautifully crafted staircase leading to the 1st floor.
On the ground floor there is a bedroom, with adjoining shower room, and doors leading outside, perfect for guests or a home office.
There is a wine cellar, laundry room and lots of storage.
On the first floor there, via a large landing, there are 4 bedrooms of varying sizes, all with windows. There is also a family bathroom and separate toilet.
The village
Messery is a very popular and multi-cultural village. The nursery and primary schools are very well-regarded, as well as a small crèche for little ones from 10 weeks to 4 years.
There is a small supermarket, two bakeries, a butcher, two hairdressers, a beautician, a pharmacy and a library.
In summer, Messery beach on Lake Geneva has its own snackbar and kayak/stand-up-paddle rentals. There is also an active tennis club with new open-air courts which are also covered from the rain.
The location
- You can reach the Swiss border at Hermance in 13 minutes by car approx. (8km), and Geneva in 35 minutes approx. (24km). The new bus route will take you straight to Rive in Geneva and the bus stop is just in front of the Mairie. So it’s commutable on a daily basis.
- The Swiss town of Nyon is a 20-minute ferry ride from neighbouring Yvoire.
- Indeed, the beautiful lake-front medieval villages of Yvoire and Nernier are just 5 minutes approx. Away by car (3km and 3.5km), offering lots of choice for restaurants and bars.
- The world-famous spa town of Evian-les-Bains is also only 31km away by road (approx. 38 minutes). Perfect for a day trip.
- For mountain lovers, the twelve resorts of the renowned Portes du Soleil area, with their 286 pistes for skiing and snowboarding in winter, and activities like hiking and mountain biking in summer, are easily accessible by car for the day (e.g. Morzine is 52km/58 minutes approx. And Les Gets is 56km/1 hour approx). Chamonix is 90km/1 hour 5 minutes approx. By car.
