Contemporary, eco-friendly apartment lot n°C

Description

This project offers 4 apartments, reflecting innovative architecture that combines the intrinsic qualities of a house with high-quality construction.

This project is part of an eco-responsible approach. Every aspect of the construction has been carefully studied to reduce energy consumption, while providing optimum modern comfort.

Heat is produced by a geothermal heat pump, ensuring thermal comfort using renewable energy, both in winter (heating) and summer (cooling), and a large part of the building’s self-consumption is provided by photovoltaic solar panels, for clean, sustainable energy. The building envelope is of Minergie quality, attesting to its high energy performance.

To ensure that the project blends seamlessly into the existing woodland bordering the eastern edge of the Vennes stream, a tributary of the Vuachère, the building’s external spaces are planted with local species, guaranteeing the pleasant privacy of each dwelling while providing thermal and hygrometric regulation during the summer months.

In addition, every constructive measure has been taken to ensure the comfort of residents and protect them from nuisances both inside and outside the building: acoustic glazing, oversized walls and slabs between flats, etc.

This property is a 3-storey, 3.5-room flat with approx. 107m2 of living space. The entrance area, located on the first level and independently accessible from the entrance courtyard, includes a number of built-in cupboards and a visitor’s WC.

A fine staircase leads down to the garden level to a large living/reception room. Contemporary and bright, it gives direct access to the private terrace/garden. This spacious 48m2 living area comprises a lounge with fireplace, a dining room and a fitted kitchen.

The upstairs sleeping area comprises 2 bedrooms with very high ceilings and 2 shower rooms. To optimise space and take advantage of the very large volume of the bedrooms, mezzanine options are also available on request.

A parking space in the underground car park directly adjacent to the entrances to the various apartment-houses and a cellar adjoining the flat complete this property.

Located in the leafy, residential district of Valfaye, between Chailly and La Sallaz, this architects’ project, a contemporary interpretation of the English cottages, enjoys a unique city-centre location. It is set on a plot of land bordered to the north by a green zone that cannot be built on, and to the east by a wooded belt bordering the Vennes stream, a tributary of the Vuachère. It offers a rare and unspoilt natural environment, with excellent views.

The town centre, Lausanne station and Ouchy are easily accessible by public transport (TL no. 6 – stop in front of the door and M2). Motorway access to Vennes is just a short drive away.

This new development is close to primary and secondary schools (notably the Ecole de Coteau Fleuri, Ecole Internationale de Valmont, Collège des Fiches, Ecole de la Sallaz and Collège de Béthusy). The primary schools are all within walking distance.

The first local shops are less than 100 metres away, including a supermarket, a shop and a popular Lausanne restaurant (300m). The Place de La Sallaz, with its shops, nursery, municipal library and M2 metro station, is just a few minutes’ walk away (also accessible by TL bus no. 6).

In short, all the qualities of a connected urban location, in the heart of a green, landscaped setting.

The tax rate for the commune of Lausanne is 78.5% of the basic rate.
