A villa in Cannes Californie, designed by an architect
This sumptuous new villa surveys the sparkling Bay of Cannes from its enviable location on the hills. Surrounded by natural greenery, it is an invitation to enjoy a luxurious art of living while basking in the sun…
Known as one of the finest addresses on the Riviera, the Cannes Californie neighbourhood (less than half an hour from Nice’s international airport and a few minutes from the centre of Cannes) offers idyllic views of the azure sky and the Mediterranean Sea. Here, this villa, completed very recently, comes into view from a majestic driveway winding its way through olive-trees and subtly installed water features. A real haven of peacefulness, a screen of natural vegetation sheltered from prying eyes plays host to this contemporary residence offering a prime example of airy, minimalist architecture, entirely designed by a renowned architect giving priority to the most noble of healthy materials.
Wherever one looks, everything contributes towards the property’s beauty and luxuriousness. Built of light-coloured stone, wood, stainless steel and glass, the villa gives precedence to natural daylight thanks to picture windows ensuring easy communication between indoors and out. The villa’s living space of 470 m2 is comprised of an entrance hall, a vast lounge, dining-room, and a kitchen fully equipped with top-notch designer fittings, opening out to a sheltered terrace. Three large suites with walk-in closets and bath or shower rooms complete the ground floor. All the rooms open out to the superb grounds of 6,700 m2, admirably laid out. The 25-metre infinity pool and its pool-house are on the same level as the living rooms. On the upper floor, two more suites, including the master, are prolonged by generous terraces with safety barriers made of glass, offering even more transparency. Fully furnished and decorated in a cosy, contemporary style, dotted with a few paintings and sculptures, the villa benefits from top-quality appointments including a high-performance home automation system, an illuminated retro wine-cellar in the basement, and a gym. An annex at the entrance to the property could accommodate a security unit or a guardian’s apartment. A lock-up garage for 4 cars plus an outdoor parking area complete the practical assets of this villa meeting all the demands of an international clientele in search of the iconic Riviera life-style, sold ready to move in.
