Luxury mansion of around 600 m² set at the heart of a wonderful park of some 5.700 m² composed of large lawns, a charming kitchen, garden and Mediterranean species: lemon trees, orange trees, pommels, palm trees. Unobstructed views of the sea and only 5 minutes from La Croisette. In 1910, the well-known architect, Harold PETO, created an oval ornamental basin of over 30 m surrounded by a portico covered with flowers, a 3.50 m wide marble paved peristyle surrounded by 52 columns of white “Carrare” marble supporting a wisteria. The peristyle with its circular floodlighting is a marvelous place for receptions. The basin has been converted into a modern heated swimming pool with wonderful views of the surrounding hills with sea in the distance. The villa of 8 rooms, built in 1970 with high quality materials and technology, has been fully renovated and extended in 2008. It is composed on the ground floor of a large living room, a small sitting room with study and TV room, a dining room, a bar, an equipped US-style kitchen, a large veranda with small sitting room and summer dining room and also 3 bedrooms with bathrooms and dressing rooms.

The luxury real estate market at the Côte d'Azur is one of the most attractive in the Mediterranean area. Whilst ‘idyllic lifestyle and escape from city life' remains the primary reason people wish to purchase property in the French Riviera, due to the global economic situation, clients are also looking to buy secondary homes in the South of France as it is a stable investment and intelligent retirement plan. La Californie is one of the most exclusive residential areas in Cannes. It is characterized by apartment buildings with beautiful parks, magnificent villas and exceptional estates. Although it's close to La Croisette with its beaches, nice restaurants and luxury shopping facilities, it's a secluded area.
