This magnificent 1902 residence combines both historic charm with modernity. Originally known as the Villa Beatrix, or La Tourelle, it was named after a pretty little tower overlooking Lake Genval from the corner of Avenue des Cormiers and Avenue du Théâtre. The entrepreneur who built Villa Beatrix for his niece was inspired by one of King Ludwig II of Bavaria’s castles, Neuschwanstein. It was acquired in 1989 by a couple who renovated it and renamed it ‘La Fée du Lac’ (The Fairy of the Lake) because, seen from the other side of the lake, the turret reminded them of a fairy’s wand. The front façade bears the hallmark of this name, with a mosaic of a golden-haired fairy musician, topped by the name and date of the villa. As the owner was Greek, the couple chose to repaint the woodwork in the blue commonly used on the Greek islands. The villa was sold in 2001 to a couple who renovated it to a high standard of finish and craftsmanship: marble floors or solid parquet, a fully equipped kitchen, beautiful bathrooms and spacious terraces. The private garden, which follows the curves of the lake, is adorned with climbing hydrangeas, numerous shrubs, rose bushes and other fragrant flowers. A unique residence, truly the jewel of the lake, that will be appreciated by lovers of beautiful historic homes with a soul, in an idyllic holiday setting.
