How property videos capture the atmosphere of a house

In the competitive world of luxury real estate, standing out means more than just beautiful photos and detailed floor plans. It means telling a story.

At Engel & Völkers La Côte, we believe that presenting a luxury property requires more than beautiful photos and detailed floor plans – it requires telling a story. For a contemporary villa in Arzier, we created a professional real estate video production together with Tulip Films, capturing both the architectural beauty and the unique lifestyle the property offers.

A contemporary gem in Arzier

Located in the peaceful, green surroundings of Arzier, this luxury villa is the epitome of sophisticated living. With over 450m² of floor space on four levels, the house offers sweeping views from the south-east to the south-west.

The clean white façade and minimalist design reflect both sophistication and functionality. The 70m² open-plan living area is flooded with natural light thanks to triple-glazed, floor-to-ceiling windows and high ceilings. Large beige-grey tiles (1.20m x 1.20m) run seamlessly from the interior to the spacious outdoor terraces, creating a natural transition between inside and outside.

The panoramic terraces, protected by elegant glass railings, provide the perfect backdrop for the heated swimming pool. The wide pool steps, which also serve as seating, invite residents and guests alike to relax and enjoy the 180° view of the surrounding landscape.

This villa has four bedrooms, including a 40m² master suite with en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. There is also space for a wellness area, making the house a personal retreat.

Further highlights include:

  • A custom-made, glass-enclosed floating staircase

  • A warm oak design that is reflected in the kitchen and bathrooms

  • A private gym

  • A wine cellar

  • A 56m² multipurpose room in the heated basement

  • A three-car garage with charging stations for electric cars and storage space

  • A heat pump for year-round comfort

This house is designed for elegant, low-maintenance living. It required a video production approach that could convey both its form and its feel.

Why videos make all the difference

In today's luxury property market, producing property videos is no longer just a nice extra, but an essential. Especially for high-end homes, a well-made video tour can do more than just showcase the features: it creates an emotional connection.

Buyers aren't just looking for square metres. They're looking for a lifestyle, a feeling, a place that appeals to them. That's why it's crucial to work with a professional team that knows how to translate the essence of a home into a film.

The Engel & Völkers La Côte approach

For the villa in Arzier, our team approached the creative process with a clear goal in mind: to present the property in a way that goes beyond architecture and floor plans, and instead captures the emotional experience of living there.

The video was produced in collaboration with Tulip Films, whose cinematic expertise brought this vision to life.

"From the outset, the whole experience felt natural and straightforward. The shoot was calm and confidence-inspiring, more like a conversation than a recording. The attention to detail and creative vision were outstanding. Above all, the process gave us a feeling of confidence and relaxation, which is also reflected in the finished video. The result is authentic, beautiful and expressive," reports Léonore Aellen, real estate consultant at Engel & Völkers La Côte.

This collaborative approach not only documented the villa in Arzier, but created a cinematic experience that allows viewers to feel the light, space and textures. The video reflects the architectural intent and emotional depth of the house and serves as an extension of the values we represent at Engel & Völkers: quality, elegance and connection.

Results that speak volumes

The finished video has become an essential part of the marketing strategy for the villa, helping potential buyers familiarise themselves with the property even before they step inside. In a landscape where first impressions are often made digitally, this type of professional property video production is a huge advantage.

We have seen increased engagement across all platforms: more enquiries, longer page views and greater interest from qualified buyers. Videos allow us to tell the story of a home in a way that static images or text alone cannot.

Why should you opt for a property video production?

If you are selling a luxury property, here are just a few reasons why you should invest in a professional property video production:

  • Showcase the lifestyle, not just the features: videos allow potential buyers to see how rooms connect, how light falls through the rooms and what it feels like to live there.

  • Increase engagement: Listings with videos receive more clicks, longer viewing times and greater interest than those without videos.

  • Stand out in a competitive market: Especially with luxury properties, a high-quality presentation will set you apart from the crowd.

  • Reach international buyers: Videos overcome language barriers. They offer an immersive viewing experience for overseas buyers who are unable to visit in person.

  • Strengthen your brand: A professional video reflects the quality and values of your agency.
