A secret villa with a vast Mediterranean garden, tucked away between the cities of Antibes and Cannes, 10 minutes from the sea. The villa stands on a vast plot that covers around 6,500m². It comes into view beyond a screen of vegetation that surrounds the villa, giving it absolute privacy and calm. Trees of a wide range of species grow on the grounds, including a majestic stone pine tree that towers like a flagpole between the villa and the swimming pool. Some outdoor spaces still need to be renovated, such as the kitchen garden and the outhouse beside the large swimming pool, which lies a few steps down from the villa. In the 18th century, there was a small agricultural building on this site. It was built in a traditional style with local stone and a tiled roof. It was made up of a small structure, a cellar and a raised henhouse. From the 1960s, it was transformed and extended. It was turned into a three-part villa with gabled roofs underlined with génoise cornices and an adjoining tower, which now serves as the villa’s entrance hall. The central section and the wings have two levels: a ground floor and a garden-level floor. In the west wing, there is a first floor too. The elevations are coated with pale rendering. The roofs are covered with barrel tiles. The many windows are of various shapes and sizes, but most of them are rectangular and fitted with shutters painted green.
