Description
Located in the heart of the Geneva countryside, in the town of Meinier, the Château de Merlinge is one of the most remarkable heritage properties in Geneva. Nestled in a domain of nearly 49 hectares, this historic site offers a rare and exclusive setting, where heritage, nature, and lifestyle come together in perfect balance.
Mentioned as early as 1304 as a noble property attached to the Saint-Victor priory, the Merlinge domain has spanned the centuries in the hands of illustrious families, such as the de la Mare and the de Loys, who have contributed to shaping its history and identity. The current castle, whose origins date back to the 17th century, has undergone several restoration campaigns over time, the last renovation dating back to 2000, allowing the preservation of all the architectural richness and authenticity of the place.
With nearly 1,500 m² of living space, this exceptional residence comprises 20 rooms, including 12 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. Most of the rooms benefit from a privileged orientation, offering magnificent views of the surrounding countryside, the Jura, and the mountains. The molded ceilings, frescoes, period woodwork, sculpted cornices, and the majestic private chapel in Louis XV style illustrate the unique character of this property.
The domain also includes 11 annex buildings, harmoniously distributed throughout the property, offering numerous possibilities for use. A stable, four garages or covered boxes, as well as a 20-meter swimming pool, complete the amenities of this exceptional domain.
The exterior reveals an exceptional park composed of landscaped gardens, vast meadows, and natural spaces totaling over 485,000 m², to which are added a vegetable garden, an orchard, a greenhouse, and two protected chapels, witnesses to the historical richness of the domain. Each perspective highlights a preserved environment where absolute calm reigns supreme.
Passed down through generations to illustrious Geneva families, the Château de Merlinge today represents a unique legacy, intended for lovers of the most prestigious historic homes.
An emblematic property, combining heritage, elegance, and history, offering one of the rarest real estate opportunities in Switzerland.
