Timeless Prestige on Lake Geneva

An exclusive offering from Switzerland Sotheby's International Realty! Nestled between the lake and mountains in the heart of the Vaud Riviera, this historic residence is a true testament to elegance and vision. Built in 1930 by Professor Paul Niehans, the founder of Clinique La Prairie and a pioneer in cellular medicine, the villa 'Le Rocher du Soleil' has gracefully endured the passage of time while maintaining its essence. Once a gathering place for the international elite in medicine and the arts, it has recently undergone a meticulous restoration that marries heritage with sustainable innovation. The original volumes have been preserved and enhanced through a thoughtful renovation that incorporates geothermal energy, high-performance insulation, and top-tier amenities. The interiors showcase a stunning array of precious materials, including deep-hued quartzite from Brazil, rare marbles, artistic De Gournay wallpapers, and bespoke joinery. Each en suite bedroom and custom-designed space reflects a refined lifestyle, harmonizing heritage, innovation, and tranquility. The park, redesigned by acclaimed landscape architect Jean Mus, extends the villa into a Mediterranean botanical setting, highlighted by an infinity pool that appears to float over Lake Geneva.
