A FAMILY HOME ON THE EDGE OF THE CHAUX FOREST On the edge of the Chaux Forest, within the triangle formed by Dole, Arbois, and Arc-et-Senans, Le Clos Sylvestre is a secluded retreat where nature shapes every view. Reimagined with a contemporary wood-frame extension, this family home is set within a 3,737 m² wooded park dotted with majestic trees, terraces opening onto the landscape, and a heated pool. A property designed to combine everyday comfort, energy efficiency, and a relaxed lifestyle in the heart of the Jura. THE LANDSCAPE AS THE PRIMARY SETTING Behind its gate, a long paved path leads to a reimagined silhouette. The original 1967 house now dialogues with recently built timber-frame extensions, offering a contemporary architectural style oriented toward light and the garden. The living spaces are organized around large windows that naturally extend the view toward the trees and clearings of the park. The living room enjoys a particularly pleasant west-facing orientation when the light filters through the foliage. The fully equipped kitchen contributes to this interior fluidity, where each space maintains a direct connection with the outdoors. On the ground floor, the bedrooms and bathrooms enhance everyday comfort, while a mezzanine adds an extra dimension to the space. A GARDEN EXTENDING INTO THE FOREST Here, the property seems to naturally extend into the nearby forest. Centuries-old trees mark the seasons, filter the light, and provide a constant presence of greenery that accompanies every moment of the day. Around the heated pool, the terraces become living spaces in their own right. Mornings linger to the east in soft light, while evenings naturally find their place on the west terrace opening onto the park. The immediate proximity of the Chaux Forest invites you to take walks, bike rides, or long escapes into one of France's largest deciduous forests. A CONTEMPORARY VISION OF LIVING Le Clos Sylvestre also captivates with the coherence of its transformation. High-performance insulation, a heat pump, solar panels, dual-flow ventilation, and home automation contribute to a contemporary approach to comfort?discreet in its execution yet highly effective in daily life. The outbuildings and garages, already connected to the necessary utilities, offer exciting possibilities for expansion to accommodate family and friends or to develop a complementary project. Just fifteen minutes from Dole, its TGV station, and its airport, the property enjoys a rare balance between connectivity and immersion in nature. Arbois, the Jura wine-growing landscapes, and the Royal Saltworks of Arc-et-Senans further enrich the living environment of this unique address. THE AGENCY'S OPINION Le Clos Sylvestre embodies a way of living where contemporary architecture harmonizes with a remarkable forest setting. A property that offers both the potential for a lasting family home and a weekend retreat in the heart of one of the Jura's most inspiring regions.
