Villa Fleur de Mer : a dream property
Facing the Caribbean, this extraordinary property of over 2.5 acres benefits from a spectacular location at the top of a hill in Colombier. A very luxurious residence, taking us on an on-the-spot voyage by offering a carefree, year-round atmosphere of holidays, a distant horizon and inspiration. Paradise on earth !…
The majestic solid wood gate and a path guiding us through lush vegetation immediately set the tone. On arrival, we discover facades clad with white wood, roofs of essente wood, and low walls of local drystone comprising this extraordinary property offering remarkable proportions all on one floor. Completed in 2001 and designed by the ODP architectural firm, the villa Fleur de Mer offers a taste of luxury as soon as one steps into the entrance hall with its lovely teak staircase flanked by two cascades, leading to a patio with a Japanese pond and two splendid Gaïacs. One then discovers four bedrooms, set back slightly, and all accompanied by adjoining bathrooms, walk-in closets and terrace areas opening out to the sea, with azure-blue views as far as the eye can see. At the front of the house, one finds the kitchen, reception room and TV lounge, running along a gigantic terrace with its infinity pool. In the same interconnecting style, the splendid master suite is very much at ease in a truly vast space. Offering an impressive four-poster bed, it also benefits from a superb study, a cosy sitting-room, an outdoor jacuzzi, and a dreamy bathroom designed for Him and Her with wooden and natural stone fittings and two outsize showers. Everywhere, old English furniture, mahogany parquet floors, antiques and windows with Venetian blinds guarantee elegance with a touch of exoticism, masterfully reinterpreting the colonial style. The bonus : beneath the parking area, a discreet but superbly equipped and air-conditioned gym awaits its guests. Then, in the open air, this amazing sensation of being drawn out to the open sea, and abandoning oneself to contemplation of this divinely blue seascape.
