Participation subject to prior approval. Villa Renaudin, designed by Yves Salier and Adrien Courtois. Located 18 minutes from Biarritz, on a landscaped plot of 925 sqm in a commanding position, this villa offers approximately 280 sqm of living space and benefits from a peaceful setting with unobstructed views extending to the Pyrenees mountain range. Organized on split levels, the house offers a fluid layout and generous proportions. The main level features a vast cathedral-ceilinged living room, a dining room extending onto a terrace with built-in furniture, and a kitchen with a pantry opening onto a shaded patio. The sleeping area is spread over several levels: two bedrooms with private terraces and bathrooms, a mezzanine that can accommodate an office or an additional bedroom, and a separate master suite on the lower level with a dressing room, bathroom, and sitting area. Outside, several terraces extend from the house, including one directly connected to the swimming pool below. A carport for two vehicles, a pantry, a cellar, and utility rooms complete the property. Designed by Yves Salier and Adrien Courtois, leading figures of the Bordeaux School of Architecture, the house reflects the architectural style of the 1970s, where the rigor of the plan is balanced by a sensitive approach to the landscape. The split-level design follows the natural slope of the land and structures the volumes around a central element: a monumental fireplace with geometric lines, the true centerpiece of the living room. The large, south-facing windows frame the landscape and allow constant light to enter, orchestrated by the interplay of sloping ceilings, roof overhangs, and strong horizontal lines. The swimming pool below acts as a mirror, extending the perspectives and reinforcing the connection between indoors and outdoors. The outdoor spaces are designed as true extensions of the house: sheltered terraces, built-in furniture, and a north-facing patio all reflect an architecture attentive to both use and climate. Built in the 1970s, Villa Renaudin belongs to the Bordeaux School movement, an architectural current that left its mark on Southwest France through its ability to combine modernity, local roots, and quality of use. Through this project, Yves Salier and Adrien Courtois developed an architecture that is both structured and dynamic, where each level, each opening, and each circulation space responds to a nuanced understanding of the site. Today, the house retains all the relevance of this approach: a way of living oriented towards light, landscape and comfort, in a timeless style.
