LE BEAUVOIR: Unforgettable 3-level lakeside flat

This is one of these rare places on earth: literally by the water, facing the Alps and the Mont Blanc, this triplex appartment displays all the modern comfort, yet the charm of an XIXth century house. The flat sits at the top floors of this protected historical monument, over three different levels, with 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a huge living-room, a fully-equipped kitchen and a small lovely study/reading room in the tower at the very top of the House. Comes with free wifi, ipad, and aperitif. *** NEW | Check out and subscribe to our (Hidden by Airbnb) account *** @lebeauvoirswiss *** See it for yourself! *** - Two fully furnished bedrooms with queen/double beds, with their own private bathrooms, closet and storage. In the Chambre Violette (Purple Bedroom), a staircase leads to a cute small study, which is in fact the highest point of the house. This upstairs study is a perfect hidden place for relaxing, working, or doing yoga. - An awesome, large (75 sq-m) living room with high ceiling and a beautiful set of wooden beams above. Comes with vintage design furniture, a fireplace, a genuine "Frigidaire" fridge from the 50ies filled with everything liquid necessary for your "aperitif". This room is truly unique and exceptional by its dimensions and charm. - A fully operational kitchen with modern Siemens/Miele equipment, washer and dryer for your clothes and, what else, a Nespresso coffee machine. - Some high-tech: Free wifi, TV set, Chromecast and iPad for TV channels or Netflix. - Some low-tech: yoga pad, a 500L-aquarium table as table, with live tropical fishes. Very relaxing to watch after long useless blablabla meetings or tiring walks, believe us. Built in the XIXth century this building was originally a school for girls. Old wooden floors, moldings on ceilings, wooden built-in storage, fireplaces, this house has soul and the undeniable charm of old Europe. We have just upgraded it, with a touch of fresh paint and some new equipment. This is our family house and we feel very fortunate for it. We decided to share the daily joy we feel to be living there. Four generations have been raised here. This house has seen some training for the (Phone number hidden by Airbnb) Swiss National Waterski Championship, some others chilling kayaking from the private pier in front, or gardening the flowers and the gingko standing in front. We truly love this house and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do. Hopefully every morning you will look at the Alps rising from the water, smile at the morning sun in front of you and feel the same way. *** COVID-19 SITUATION - SPECIAL CARE: We take the situation seriously ourselves and set a few things to ensure that risk is managed and highly reduced: * EXTRA-TIME set between stays for cleaning up to 3 days. Please ask us if in doubt. * CLEANING: reinforced with disinfectant, done with extra-care and gloves * INDEPENDENT ENTRANCE: although we share the house with guests, we will make sure not to meet in the common entrance - the only place where we could face each other. Front door handle is disinfected regularly. - The small private PIER in front of the house is also for your use. Picture a romantic picnic litterally on the water at sunset or simply an after-work relaxing glass of Chardonnay, surrounded by the local royal swans. - In summer, you can even borrow our STAND-UP PADDLE for a tour on the water. - Scooters for kids for rides on the pier (promenade) are available. - A PARKING SPOT can be offered for an extra fee, but only for small to medium-sized cars. - Full set is available for BRIDGE players. - The garden is unfortunately not part of the rental, but the promise of the whole lake promenade and pier will make up for that. We -a family of four- live on the ground floors and are available for any issue you may have. We are Swiss yet have lived abroad. Contact us also by phone/whatssap/email. Language-wise, whatssap us in any of the following: English, French, some Italian, some Russian...and we’ll respond with a solution in a snap. And count on us for good advice on local wine or restaurant. The appartment/house is located in the center of Morges, in a residential area on the pier by the lake of Geneva. This conveniently means 2min walking to the main shopping area of Morges, with Migros/Coop department and grocery stores. We usually do everything by bike or foot, including visiting the grocery artisan market up on Saturdays morning in the Main Street. Thanks to its location, this appartment is very well connected to Geneva, Lausanne by highway or train, whatever your means of transportation. The COMMUTE to GENEVA / NYON / GLAND / ROLLE / LAUSANNE / VEVEY is easy using the SBB/CFF train system as it only takes 7 min by foot to reach the train station. The entrance to the main A1 highway which connects Geneva to Lausanne is also 2 blocks away. If you are in a touristy mood, the boat landing dock can be reached in 4-5 min. by walking along the Lake Promenade. From there, hop onto one of the famous Paddle Wheel Boats of the CGN to go to a near by city or even France. Of course for your regular daily/weekly needs, you can walk by the lake to the town center and its shops (a couple of min away). For urgent basic needs, walk across the street to the convenient store or to the pizza place next door. Pizza and 7-eleven at your doorstep, what can one ask for more? :) With a small-and-cute town vibe, Morges is an exclusive and prized location where most locals in the region are eager to live in, due to both its undeniable lakeside charm and very good connection to the rest of Western Switzerland. The train station (to Lausanne and Geneva) is only 7 min away by foot from the apartment. EPFL is also very close, accessible by direct buses. So follow the locals, don't hesitate and avoid spiritless centers for the small town feeling of Morges while exploring the whole region conveniently.
