La Maison Maroc

Built in the 1920s by a wealthy Mexican for his beloved, this historic residence was once known as the “Château du Maroc”—a title perhaps too grand for the cozy sanctuary imagined by Caroline and Kanèle, who affectionately renamed it “La Maison Maroc.”

The decor, distinctly old-world in style, almost bourgeois with its chandeliers, wooden staircase, antique furniture, tapestries, marble fireplaces, and large gilded mirrors, also features carefully selected new furniture pieces. The living room and dining room, awash in natural light and separated by large glass doors, offer a bright and sophisticated space. At night, the crystal chandeliers can be illuminated, casting a warm light across the exquisite herringbone parquet flooring. Both stylish and comfortable, the spacious layout (enhanced by the removal of one of the original kitchens to enlarge the area) serves as the heart of the home.

A standout feature of La Maison Maroc is the original silk and jute tapestries in the bedrooms. These have been carefully preserved and integrated into the overall decor, adding unique character to each room. Caroline and Kanèle took great joy in sourcing and repurposing second-hand pieces, uncovering genuine treasures that contribute to the home’s charm.

The external allure of Maison Maroc is equally captivating and reminiscent of a Belle Époque seaside villa. Its distinct feature, a tower topped with a belvedere, provides a 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding forest, setting this house apart.

From this vantage point, guests get a taste of the full immersion in nature offered by the park, even before stepping outside. The park is a sanctuary of lime trees, century-old sequoias, plane trees, and includes an orchard where apples are harvested and shared with guests.
