House M8 (Maison Jade) stands apart as the flagship of Domaine Céladon. South-facing and arranged across three floors (R+2), it offers the largest interior of the entire collection at 117.54m2, paired with a remarkable 273m2 private garden, two terraces (11m2 on the ground floor, 3m2 on the first floor) and its own garage - a total outdoor and annexe space of 302.9m2, by far the most generous among the 8 houses, and more than twice the garden size of neighbouring properties. This combination of scale, orientation, and privacy makes M8 the natural choice for a buyer seeking the most complete expression of the domain's promise: genuine family space, both inside and out, within a discreet and intimate setting.

Domaine Céladon is a private, intimate development of just 8 houses, each with its own private garden and aerial parking (17 parking spaces across the domain in total). Arranged around a discreet private lane, sheltered from noise, the houses sit alone or paired two by two, like a small village at the heart of town - the architect's own description of the project. Gardens are bordered with climbing wisteria, honeysuckle and roses, giving each home a genuinely green, cocooned feel. The architecture draws on the elegant character of Maisons-Laffitte itself - rendered façades in warm, harmonious tones (off-white, pale stone, ochre beige, light brown), tiled roofs, and carefully considered detailing - for a sober, harmonious signature across the collection. Buyers can also personalise their home, choosing from a range of floor and wall finishes as construction progresses. Delivery is scheduled for the third quarter of 2028.

Maisons-Laffitte offers a rare quality of life just 20km from Paris: a sought-after residential address combining remarkable heritage, abundant nature, and considered town planning. The town is built around the Château de Maisons-Laffitte, a masterpiece of French classical architecture built between 1630 and 1651 by the celebrated architect François Mansart. Its equestrian legacy runs just as deep: nicknamed the 'Cité du Cheval' (Horse City), Maisons-Laffitte has been a centre of French horse racing since the Comte d'Artois (the future King Charles X) restored its stables and introduced English-style racing in 1777. Its racecourse, opened in 1878, hosted racing for over 140 years before closing to public access in 2019; the site remains a working training centre for thoroughbreds to this day, and now also hosts the town's 9-hole golf course. Nearly 6km of bridle paths run through the surrounding Parc de Maisons-Laffitte, where horses genuinely have the right of way. The prestigious Forêt de Saint-Germain-en-Laye lies close by too, completing a genuinely exceptional setting where nature, heritage, and equestrian tradition meet. Écurie Montebello, one of the town's well-established private stables, sits within walking distance in the heart of the Parc - a tangible reminder of this equestrian heritage. The town centre, the town's market, and the train station are just a 10-minute walk away, with shops, cafes and everyday amenities close at hand.

For an international audience, Maisons-Laffitte also offers a genuinely rare set of lifestyle amenities: the historic Parc de Maisons-Laffitte, a private, tree-lined residential quarter built on the former grounds of the Château, is one of the most sought-after addresses in the western Paris suburbs, and horses are genuinely part of daily life there - several well-established riding schools for children and families, including the well-established Poney Club du Parc, welcome young riders from as young as 18 months right within the Parc. Sporting life is equally well served, with a 9-hole golf course (Golf de Maisons-Laffitte, set within the town's famous racecourse) and a well-equipped tennis, squash and padel club, both a short drive away. For international families, the bilingual Ermitage International School - offering both the IB Diploma Programme and the French Baccalaureate international option (BFI) to over 1,500 students from more than 80 nationalities - sits directly in Maisons-Laffitte, and the town is also home to Holy Trinity, a well-established English-speaking Anglican church with an international congregation dating back over a century, making this an especially compelling address for relocating families. For business commuters, the RER A puts La Défense business district within around 13 minutes, direct.

For families, the location is well served by nearby schools within easy reach, including Ecole maternelle Jean Cocteau and Collège Jean Cocteau, Ecole élémentaire Ledreux-Alain, and both Montessori International and Ecole Sainte Marie within a short walk. Local bus stops are easily accessible nearby, and the town's fire station, police station, Mairie and hospital are all within easy reach. For commuters, Maisons-Laffitte benefits from direct RER A and Transilien L connections into central Paris and La Défense, along with quick road access via the A86 and A15.
