Castle life at your fingertips!

Château El Masr in Cologny embodies a unique architectural gem, combining the neo-Tudor style with historical roots dating back to the 18th century. Situated on a vast landscaped estate of nearly 5,000 m², this prestigious property offers spectacular views of Geneva and Lake Geneva. Named "El Masr" (the Egyptian) by Charles Floods, a Scotsman who made his fortune in Egypt in the 19th century, the château reflects a fascinating blend of Gothic and Oriental influences. With its 1,000 m² of living space, spread over three floors, the château houses eight bedrooms and seven bathrooms, and is distinguished by a majestic double marble staircase that adorns the château's main entrance. The property features numerous refined living spaces, including a sumptuous drawing room, an elegant library, and a large kitchen. The architecture is adorned with lavish details, such as custom-made Murano chandeliers and marble statues and fountains imported from Venice, which give the castle a regal ambiance. Highlights also include a stately chapel and a rare three-story tower, one of the only ones of its kind in Switzerland, with a tea room on the top floor. The four-year renovation, carried out with specialized craftsmen, has brought the property back to life in the utmost respect for its neo-Elizabethan style. This meticulous and painstaking restoration has ensured that every historical detail is preserved while modernizing the amenities. More information on request.
