La Celle sur Morin (77) – Contemporary Wood-Frame Home with Exotic Garden and Pool – 1 Hour from Paris

Description

Just one hour from Paris and 20 minutes from Disneyland, this contemporary wood-frame residence, designed by Atelier Gauthier in 1993 and awarded by the US Academy of Architecture in 1995, offers 240 m² of living space set within a magnificent landscaped exotic garden of 4,591 m². The ground floor features an entrance with cloakroom and a spectacular double-height living room, enhanced by a stainless-steel fireplace and a “conversation pit”-style lounge. Expansive wooden terraces extend the interior toward lush gardens with ponds, a gazebo, and a heated swimming pool — a peaceful retreat blending nature and modern design. A fully equipped kitchen, two bedrooms with washbasins, and a wellness area (spa, shower, sauna) complete this level. Upstairs, reached by two Japanese-step staircases, lies a 49 m² master suite (bedroom, dressing room, bathroom, separate WC) and a large flexible space (bedroom, dormitory, or playroom). A suspended walkway connects these spaces to a mezzanine with office and lounge. The property also includes a treehouse, garden shed, and parking for two cars with potential for a carport. Ideally located in a calm setting, just 3 minutes from a train station with direct links to Paris-Est in 45 minutes. A unique, warm, and characterful home, combining award-winning architecture with an enchanting natural environment.
