6 room Semi-detached house in Forel (Lavaux)

The Houses of Forel - Villa A

The character of an old farm, the comfort of two contemporary villas

In the heart of the Forel (Lavaux) countryside, on the edge of an agricultural area and close to the forest, we present a project that combines rural charm, spacious areas, and modern comfort: the transformation of an old farm into two semi-detached villas with terraces and private gardens.

The unobstructed views of the fields and the presence of nature create a peaceful living environment, just a few minutes from the main communication axes. An address to enjoy the sweetness of the countryside while maintaining a pleasant proximity to Lausanne, Vevey, and the lake.

Each villa will have 147 m² of living space and 195 m² of usable space, spread over three levels. The complete renovation will give new life to this building while preserving its village expression. The future owners will be able to personalize the kitchens, sanitary facilities, and flooring within the planned budgets to shape an interior in their image.

Spaces designed for everyday life

On the ground floor, the open kitchen overlooking the dining area will offer a convivial space of 28.5 m², extended by a 20 m² terrace and the private garden. This direct connection with the outside allows you to fully enjoy the beautiful days, between family meals and moments of relaxation facing the countryside.

A guest toilet, a 12.9 m² cellar, a 9.3 m² bicycle room, and a technical room will complete this level.

On the first floor, the 28.6 m² living room will constitute a comfortable space to gather. Two 13 m² bedrooms, a shower room, and a separate toilet will complete the distribution.

The attics will include two large available spaces of 20 and 25 m², offering additional appreciable volumes.

A heat pump with underfloor heating will ensure the thermal comfort of the two villas.

Gardens open to the countryside

Each villa will benefit from a generous private garden: 438 m² for Villa A and 489 m² for Villa B. Associated with the terraces, these spaces will invite you to garden, receive guests, or simply savor the calm of the place. Parking spaces will complete the outdoor amenities.

The two villas

Villa A: 6 rooms / 147 m² living space / 195 m² usable space / Land 630 m² / Terrace 20 m² / Cellar 12.9 m² / CHF 1'375'000.-

Villa B: 6 rooms / 147 m² living space / 195 m² usable space / Land 693 m² / Terrace 20 m² / Cellar 12.9 m² / CHF 1'395'000.-

A privileged geographical location

This rural setting offers appreciable accessibility. By car, it takes approximately:

7 minutes to reach the highway
10 minutes to reach the lake
15 minutes to reach Vevey
20 minutes to reach Lausanne

Forel - A village life between Jorat and Lavaux

Between meadows, forests, and agricultural landscapes, Forel (Lavaux) offers a green environment at the gates of the Lausanne agglomeration and the Riviera. The commune preserves a pronounced rural identity, with a village center at the Cornes de Cerf that gathers, among other things, the school, the administration, and several meeting places.

For families, the attachment to the Jorat primary and secondary school establishment, school transport, and the structures for early childhood and extracurricular care of the APERO network represent concrete advantages. The Savigny-Forel library and the Passeport Vacances Oron-Jorat enrich the possibilities for children's activities.

The shops, artisans, and numerous local societies contribute to a convivial community life. Sports, music, and events punctuate the seasons and offer as many opportunities to forge links. Forel thus combines the advantages of a community of human size and the proximity of the services of the neighboring towns.

A region with a remarkable setting

Nearby, the terraced vineyards of Lavaux, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, reveal their landscapes facing Lake Geneva and the Alps. Walks through the vineyards, character villages, and discoveries of local specialties prolong the pleasures of the countryside. An environment where nature and heritage occupy a privileged place in everyday life.

We are at your disposal to present this project to you, transmit the detailed plans, and accompany you in the choice of your future villa.
