A discreet family millstone quarry, hidden from view

In Garches, tucked away in a garden unseen from the street, this unique property is the rare result of combining two historic stone cottages, enhanced by a contemporary addition. Offering 204 m² of floor space and 187 m² of living space in absolute tranquility, it unfolds within a 758 m² verdant setting, a veritable natural barrier that protects the house from any overlooking neighbors.

Here, one finds a perfect demonstration of what it means to live in seclusion, in an atmosphere that is at once familial, calm, and profoundly warm.

A family home beyond the ordinary. From the moment you enter, the tone is set: this house is like no other. The layout, inherited from the history of the site, offers a split-level design that structures the spaces without ever partitioning them, creating a fluid family life where each space naturally finds its place. This unique layout allows each family member to maintain their privacy while remaining connected to others under one roof.

On the garden level, the entrance hall leads to a separate bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and toilet on the right, ideal for guests, accommodating a teenager, or setting up a self-contained workspace.

To the left, a TV lounge, easily convertible into a bedroom or office as needed, completes this level. The raised ground floor houses the reception rooms. A living room with a fireplace, opening onto the garden through large south-facing windows, offers a soothing view of the greenery. An open-plan office space and a guest toilet complete this level. A half-level above reveals a large, bright dining room with a loggia, as well as a spacious, separate kitchen that can easily be opened up to create a welcoming and family-friendly living space. The historic staircase from one of the two former millstone quarries, carefully preserved, leads to the first floor, comprising a bedroom, a bathroom, and a separate toilet. On the second floor, a large attic bedroom with a toilet offers a peaceful and intimate atmosphere.

Finally, created by the contemporary addition, the master suite is nestled on an intermediate level, boasting a decidedly modern ambiance: a dressing room, shower room, sleeping area, and a private terrace?a true outdoor extension suspended above the garden.

A garden sanctuary, a green haven just a stone's throw from Paris. The garden, a verdant barrier against the surrounding houses, provides an exceptional playground for children and an ideal entertaining space for sunny days. An area dedicated to outdoor dining and barbecues naturally extends the living spaces. A shed, ripe for reinvention, could serve as a workshop or storage space. A large cellar with a laundry room and direct access to the garden completes the property, as does the potential for expansion, a rare find in this type of home. A rare address for a peaceful and connected family life. Located 6 minutes from the train station and 8 minutes from the town center and church, this house boasts an ideal location, close to all amenities, while offering absolute tranquility.

A perfect place for a family seeking greenery, serenity, and character, without sacrificing quick access to Paris (35 minutes door-to-door).

A rare, family-friendly, and inspiring home. A place you don't just visit, but feel.
