 "La Grange de Julie" was originally a barn, when the Annecy lakeside was essentially rural. The house is in its own garden, away from the road, and so is very quiet even though it is in the middle of the village of Lathuile, and only 1 km away from the lake. The surrounding views are of the mountains with their ever changing colors: la Tournette, le Col de la Forclaz, le Charbon_ |
 Owner architect Jean-François transformed the almost empty volume into our family home, keeping the 18th century beams - and adding a few more, as well a big open fireplace in the ground floor dining room. French windows have replaced the original barn doors so that sunlight flows in all day. Needless to say that the heating, hot water and bathrooms are completely up to modern standards! |
 The house is furnished with a mixture of family heirlooms, books, old and new toys, colorful bedspreads and hand embroidered cushions, a piano_ almost everything has a funny story to it, and is meant to be used and enjoyed. As we only rent three rooms, the house is never overcrowded and the atmosphere remains that of a comfortable, peaceful, private family home, that it is our pleasure to share with our guests. |
