Villa for sale in Nernier, Haute-Savoie, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

The village
The medieval village of Nernier, on the French shores of Lac Léman (Lake Geneva), is also known as "La Perle du Léman". And when you consider its natural beauty, charming architecture, and fabulous quality of life, you can see why the name tag is justified. Summers in Nernier are gorgeous. The beach, decked jetty for sunbathing and swimming, bars, restaurants and art galleries, all combine to create a real holiday atmosphere every day of the week, but without the crowds.

Winter walks along the lake with the snow-capped mountains of the Jura in view, make you feel just as lucky to live in Nernier. The community is a real melting pot of nationalities, where French locals, whose families have been in the village for generations, extend a warm welcome to expats from all corners of the globe.

Residents commute on a daily basis to Geneva by road, and by ferry to Nyon, Switzerland, directly opposite on the other side of the lake. Ferry services run from the neighbouring village of Yvoire all year round, with some ferries also stopping in Nernier itself in spring and summer.
