About this property
A short drive from the riverside village of L’Isle Adam, L’Écrin Vert unfolds across 11 hectares of private grounds, where sweeping green spaces create a remarkable sense of privacy. Just 30 minutes north of Paris, this large estate offers families and groups the freedom of a country retreat alongside an exceptional collection of leisure and wellness facilities.
Inside, generous living spaces are designed for both time together and moments apart. Five air conditioned bedrooms accommodate up to nine adults and two children, with an impressive master suite, three double bedrooms and a children’s bunk room, each benefiting from its own bathroom. Days can drift between the heated swimming pool, sauna and fully equipped gym, while evenings bring their own pleasures in the private cinema or games room, complete with billiards and a bar. Younger guests have a dedicated playroom of their own.
Life outdoors is equally varied. Challenge fellow guests to a game on the tennis court or pétanque area, stroll beside the estate’s two large ponds, or simply enjoy the scale and greenery of the private grounds. Equestrian facilities include stables (and one horse at present), paddocks and an indoor arena, adding another distinctive dimension to the estate. A private helipad allows for discreet arrivals, while an on-site caretaker provides a reassuring presence throughout your stay.
The location combines rural space with excellent connections. L’Isle Adam, around 7km away on the banks of the River Oise, offers summertime riverside activities, while the landscapes and walking trails of the Vexin Français Regional Nature Park invite further exploration.
Day trips beyond the estate can be just as memorable. Take the train to Paris to wander along the Seine, explore world famous museums and monuments, or settle into a neighbourhood bistro for a leisurely lunch. Elsewhere, the Palace of Versailles offers a fascinating glimpse into France’s royal past, while Giverny invites art lovers to discover Monet’s house and gardens, including the water garden that inspired some of his most celebrated works.
For those seeking extraordinary space within reach of Paris, L’Écrin Vert offers a private world of recreation, relaxation and shared experiences amid the French countryside.
Set amid the leafy landscapes north of Paris, L’Écrin Vert offers an enticing combination of seclusion, countryside and easy access to the great capital city of France.
The estate itself unfolds across an impressive 11-hectare private park, inviting leisurely walks through natural surroundings without ever having to leave the grounds. Equestrian features (one horse, paddocks, stables, training area and an indoor arena) add to the estate’s distinctive country character, while a private helipad provides an additional option for arrivals. Meanwhile, Paris CDG Airport is less than half an hour by car.
Beyond the estate, L'Isle-Adam (6.5km) is a charming destination on the banks of the River Oise, surrounded by woodland and attractive countryside. In the summer months, look out for an array of riverside activities such as a sandy beach, swimming pool with slides, mini-golf, canoeing, paddle boarding, pedalo hire (usually available May/June weekends and every day in July/August – do check opening times and dates in advance)
It also makes an appealing gateway towards the landscapes of the Vexin Français Regional Nature Park, an area characterised by rolling farmland, wooded valleys and historic villages, with kilometres of paths for hikers.
For a change of scene, Paris (52km) makes a memorable day trip, whether you wish to admire world-famous museums and monuments, stroll along the Seine or linger over lunch in a traditional Parisian neighbourhood. For a convenient rail journey into the city, trains can be picked up at Persan-Beaumont (4km), with services reaching Gare du Nord in around 35 minutes.
There are equally rewarding excursions for lovers of French art and history. Monet’s Gardens in Giverny (72km) offer the chance to discover the house and gardens where Claude Monet lived and worked, including the celebrated water garden that inspired some of his best-known paintings. Alternatively, head to Versailles (54km), where the unesco-listed Palace of Versailles reveals the extraordinary grandeur of France’s royal past, from the Hall of Mirrors and State Apartments to its vast formal gardens.
