Abstract


This charming country house is situated on an ample site, of about 1,500 ms2 of which 380 ms2 are built up. It has a commanding view to the south. It is noteworthy in consisting of a single storey at the front, which splits up into two levels towards the rear of the house; a semibasement and a partially elevated ground floor. The building can be differentiated into three zones: living space, bedrooms and services. It has been built with highly varied materials, including carved gres, timber, brick, and ceramic tiles; such, however, that they harmonise closely with each other. The garden surrounding the house greatly enhances the attractiveness of the whole, and succeeds in strengthening the relationship between the interior and the outdoor nature: a condition that is essential in a country dwelling.
