Grand Baie, Mauritius | Lifestyle Estate

A place to belong and call home

3 min read

Sanctuary; a safe place, somewhere to take refuge from the rush of the outside world.

A place you truly belong, and call home. How to find it? Close your eyes, listen carefully for the stillness, and follow it away from the busyness of the Grand Baie coast, and into the vast, green pastures of La Salette.

Treasured for Centuries

In the year 1846 in La Salette Fallavaux, France; two children claimed to have seen an apparition of Mary, the mother of Jesus, in a field. The holy event inspired the building of a stone basilica in the area and a replica in the northern part of Mauritius – it would be known as the Notre Dame de La Salette. For centuries the church has taken care of this building and surrounding land. It is on this reverential soil that the foundations of La Salette Estate are set. So much more than just another development, it is designed to replicate the peace and longevity of the area. This extends inward, overflowing into the morcellement and creating a lifestyle that is timeless and content, in harmony with nature and with others.

Enter into Elegance

The magnificent entrance of the estate is a statement of high quality living . It welcomes you home as a beacon of elegant stone and metal. It is a secure, safe community, with one access point. The internal roads are wide and there is an unexpected openness to the yards, it is calm, comfortable and cosy.

At the heart of La Selette

In the centre, stretching the entire length of the morcellement is a verdant strip of greenery measuring almost 9000 m². This central park is a communal space for neighbours to greet or linger in the sun or under the trees. The park is the pièce de résistance and focal point of La Salette.

Completely contrary to the usual surroundings in the north of the island, the park will boast a mini forest of local trees and plants that introduce character to the surroundings. This quiet oasis has paths and grassy areas to relax, read, have picnics, or simply lounge around on sunny afternoons and listen to the birds. As the trees grow and develop, so will the community, building memories under the watchful shade of the trees.

La Salette also offers the opportunity for residents to create secluded private gardens with their favourite plants to care for and enjoy through the seasons. More than a development, La Salette Estate will be a home sanctuary, a place to create the life you deserve, a quiet oasis with wide open spaces and an abundance of natural surroundings.

Introducing the open front yard

The pool of greenery in the park splashes out to the surrounding houses, with trees and foliage intentionally planted around each home. The rolling lawns are endless and there are no divides or boundaries in front of the yards. These shared verges continue the connection to nature and one another.

Embrace green housing

The houses intentionally complement the natural surroundings. Clean, white lines give a sense of lightness and are rounded off with robust volcanic stone cladding and textured, timber screens for warmth.

This harmonious interface translates to the inside of the housing with an abundance of natural lighting and open-plan layouts. The internal design also incorporates natural materials throughout to maintain a strong connection to the outdoors.

At La Salette, we not only enjoy nature but also do our best to preserve it. We encourage sustainability through various means, including; energy-efficient ventilation, maximum use of natural daylight through skylights, and LED lighting where possible.
