With its modernist architecture from 1973, designed by architect Lucien Vie, this avant-garde villa of 252 m2 unfolds its generous curves facing the Frioul islands, on a splendid green plot of 2,580 m2 with a view, in the heart of Roucas Blanc.

In need of renovation, the villa has retained the power of its original design and awaits a restoration worthy of its character. Inspired by the lifestyle of its owners, the villa, facing the sea, is structured in a continuous dialogue between interior and exterior. Curves and counter-curves structure a fluid architecture where light glides and transforms throughout the day. Ribbed concrete, rounded roof overhangs, 1970s colors, and both curved and taut lines punctuate the facade.
Upon entering the property, the tree-lined pathway guides the arrival and gradually reveals the house nestled in its verdant setting. The villa proudly embraces its 1970s roots: round mosaic floor tiles, a kitchen in cream and wood tones, a sculptural metal fireplace, colorful built-in bookcases, and plush carpeting create a distinctly modernist décor. Shades of orange, navy blue, and terracotta interact with the light, while the bathrooms feature turquoise tiles and sunny hues typical of the era.
The layout is organized around a circular, open-air patio, clad in terracotta and punctuated by graphic openings that diffuse warm light into the heart of the house. The kitchen and living room extend onto a veranda set on a large terrace overlooking the garden. Further along, a utility room, laundry room, and bathroom follow one another. A separate entrance completes this level, comprising a bedroom and a spacious office.
Upstairs, four bedrooms, each opening onto a circular balcony and connected to the garden, are revealed one after the other and share two bathrooms. The 35-square-meter library, bathed in light, stands as the culmination of the interior journey. It extends onto a terrace offering panoramic views of the sea and the islands.
The exceptional green garden planted with fig trees, mimosas and bougainvillea completes this dream setting and provides access to an independent studio of 35 m2 to be renovated and a parking space.

A signature style from the 70s to be reinterpreted between light and the Mediterranean.
