A rare exceptional villa on the marketA breathtaking view of Lake Neuchâtel, forest in direct protection, no neighbors and an immediate rental yield.
Located on the heights of Châbles (FR), in the Rafor residential area, this 2014 architect-designed glued-laminated-wood villa offers an exceptional living environment combining quality construction, energy performance and a privileged natural setting.
The property consists of two completely independent plots for a total living area of about 201 m² spread over three levels.
The main part of the property (~144 m², 6.5 rooms) is organized on two levels with a large open living-kitchen area extended by a pergola and a terrace, five bedrooms including a bright mezzanine, and a full bathroom. From all the main rooms, the view of Lake Neuchâtel is unobstructed and permanent.
The ground floor apartment (~57 m², 3 rooms) has a totally independent entrance, a private terrace and an adjoining garden. It is currently rented with a current lease, generating rental income from the moment the keys are handed over. For a buyer wishing to occupy the entire property, the two apartments can be combined into a single lot – the configuration of the levels naturally allows this.
On the opposite side of the lake, a dense forest directly borders the property. The legal construction distances recorded in the RDPPF cadastre guarantee that there will be no construction in this direction. Absolute quiet certified DS II.
The villa has a
class B energy performance, thanks to its insulated wooden structure (180 mm mineral wool), its high-efficiency joinery (Uw 1.3 W/m²K) and its ELCO AEROTOP heat pump with floor heating per level. No energy-related work to be done.
The two large plots represent an exceptional total area – about three times the average of local comparables – with landscaped garden, raised vegetable garden, orchard, three-car covered carport and terraces. A residual development potential on the main plot opens the possibility of a future extension (subject to validation by the competent authorities).
