A breathtaking view from Beaulieu-sur-Mer

Surrounded by Mediterranean shubs and plants, this villa of approx. 300 m2 offers decidedly contemporary architecture on Boulevard Edouard-VII, a prestigious address harmoniously alternating 1940’s residences and ultra-modern properties.

Three monumental columns reach for the sky. Their pale greyish colour contrasts with the anthracite of the horizontal planes they intersect. At night, garden lighting enhances the effect. Here, curves rub shoulders with geometric lines. The terrace treats itself to a place in the sun, thanks to a circle cut out of the fifth façade. Picture windows and glass balustrades award a starring role to the magnificent view of the harbour of Beaulieu, the Mediterranean and the spectacular Cap Ferrat.

The tone is set straight from the entrance hall, with its ceiling 5 metres high : visitors can opt for the staircase, also made of glass and leading to all four floors, or the panoramic elevator, suspended above the bay. The four suites all have their own walk-in closets. The master suite benefits from a taupe-coloured setting 7 metres long. The central leather benchseat echos the upholstery of the double bed. Fitted with Gaggenau applicances, the kitchen also boasts a central island made of quartz. Fontana Arte signs the lighting, Living Divani the design of the sofas, and B&B Italia the chairs. The light oak parquet floor adds wamth to the atmosphere. Home automation - including the security system and reinforced front door, and the sound system built into all the living rooms - adds to the overall impression of well-being. A real haven of peace and quiet, the villa offers its occupants an enchanting hideaway. Privacy takes priority over the layout. And the mosaic pool is to be found at the rear of the house, sheltered from prying eyes.

With its palms and olive-trees, the garden is laid out with intimate areas, starting with that of the pool. The terrace is adorned with a carbon table and chairs, which weigh no more than 200 g each.
