Majestic castle with a panoramic view of the lake, near Nyon
The majestic Château du Martheray stands on the hills above Begnins, overlooking Lake Geneva and the Alps, facing Mont Blanc.
Built in the 15th century, it was expanded during the 19th century and fully restored to the highest standards in 2015. This meticulous work has endowed the château—with over 2,000 m² of living space—with modern comforts while preserving the original classical style of the structure. The architectural ensemble is splendid, and the main building and its outbuildings create a unique sense of space.
A beautiful driveway lined with centuries-old trees leads to an inner courtyard and provides access to the château as well as to an outbuilding converted into staff quarters. The main building features majestic reception rooms, as well as 7 en-suite bedrooms.
The ground floor provides access to a remarkable climate-controlled wine cellar, perfect for hosting guests for unforgettable wine tastings. There is also a stunning winter garden, a living room, an office, a tack room, a spacious summer kitchen, and a guest restroom.
The first floor features three magnificent adjoining living rooms with panoramic views of the lake, a majestic dining room, a La Cornue kitchen with authentic charm, a study, and a guest restroom.
The tower houses a guest bedroom and an en-suite bathroom.
The second floor, dedicated to the sleeping quarters, features a stunning master suite with a view of the lake, a walk-in closet, and an en suite bathroom, as well as two additional bedrooms with walk-in closets and en suite bathrooms—one of which includes a sitting area. A fitness area with a walk-in closet and bathroom, a staff bedroom, a kitchenette, and a laundry room complete this floor.
The attic offers a large space that can be used as a reception room, as well as a bedroom with a kitchenette and a shower room.
A magnificent park spanning nearly 1 hectare overlooks Mont Blanc, providing the property with great privacy and a fabulous view of the lake and the mountains.
This is undeniably one of the most majestic estates on the Riviera.
