Audrey Hepburn's beloved Swiss villa perfects European elegance – the historic property is on the market for $21 million

Audrey Hepburn's entryway.

Classic film legend Audrey Hepburn may be synonymous with Hollywood, but when it comes to her property portfolio, her legacy lives on in Tolochenaz, Switzerland. Named La Paisible (meaning 'the peaceful' in French), the historic home near Lake Geneva served as the actress's home for more than 30 years before she died there in 1993.

The 18th-century villa is an architectural jewel, described by listing agents Knight Frank as 'an outstanding residence is a rarity among exceptional properties.' It holds a grade 2 listing, meaning it's culturally significant for its design and history – while, inside, the interiors master a European cottage aesthetic.
