Description
Built on the hills of Cologny, facing Lake Geneva, this villa is an exceptional witness to the modernist architecture of the 1930s, entirely renovated in respect of its style. The villa "Les Ailes", inspired by Le Corbusier, was built in 1932 by Louis Vincent and Jean-Jacques Honegger, an aviator, with many details related to aviation, which is why it is called "Les Ailes". It was structured according to the topography of the land and the orientation related to the landscape, in order to be sheltered from the north wind and create openings in terraces and on the landscape. It thus offers a magnificent panorama of the lake and the Jura. It has, among other things, 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a 12m pool, a fountain, and a gym.
