There are places that are not sold: they are passed on. Les Colombières is one of them. Perched on the hillside, only a few minutes from the vibrant heart of Menton, twenty minutes from Monte-Carlo and a mere 35 minutes from Nice airport, the estate overlooks the Mediterranean. In front, the bay is a crescent of pure azure. Behind, the last tip of the Alps. Between the two, three hectares of gardens, an ocean of greenery where time seems to have stopped one morning in 1926, the day Ferdinand Bac put his last brush stroke to the fresco of the Grand Salon. Ferdinand Bac was not only an architect, painter, writer and philosopher: he was an enchanter. For his friend Émile Ladan-Bockairy, he imagined here a grand yet intimate residence that reconciled Renaissance Italy, Moorish Andalusia and the sweetness of Provence. Each wall, each fountain, each pergola is a stanza of a long poem dedicated to the Mediterranean. Listed as a Historic Monument in its entirety (buildings, interior decorations, gardens and even the smallest mosaics), Les Colombières is one of the few French properties where serenity is a work of art. Imagine waking up in the master suite, facing a sunrise that sets the sea ablaze endlessly. Descending the spiral marble staircase, touching with your fingertips the frescoes that Bac painted himself – mythological scenes, imaginary gardens, eternal azure skies. Push open the French window of the Moorish living room and immediately feel the warm breeze coming from the sea Walk barefoot on the old paving, walk along the pools, pass under the pergolas of hundred-year-old wisteria, climb the secret stairs that lead to the belvedere from which you can embrace Monaco, Cap Martin and the infinite. The main house has more than 500 Sq m of living space, restored with absolute respect for the original spirit while offering invisible contemporary comfort. On the first floor, four suites including the 120 Sq m main suite with private terrace facing the sea, dressing rooms, marble bathrooms and original mosaics. Around the main villa, the estate lives and breathes on three hectares of pure magic: terraced gardens designed by Ferdinand Bac and nominated as one of the 10 most beautiful gardens of France. A 15 m heated pool, caretaker's house of 100 Sq m, two self-contained apartments for staff or guests only add more space to fully enjoy your tranquility or throw magical parties under the enchantment of the French Riviera. Here, each season is a symphony: spring explodes with flowers and citrus scents, summer sings under the umbrella pines, autumn gilds cypresses, and in winter, when the snow crowns the mountains, we bask in the warmth of the fireplace while contemplating the sea bluer than ever. Owning Les Colombières is not the same as buying a property. It is to become the guardian of a dream, the custodian of a total work of art, the continuation of a story that began more than a century ago. Souls spend their lives seeking paradise, a rare few are lucky enough to be able to buy it and this opportunity to honor the soul of this unique place in the world is now within your reach.

A sea view villa in the center of Menton. Set on a south-facing plot, the property hugs the hillside amidst abundant Mediterranean vegetation. A footpath winds between the trees and independently serves each of the two levels of the villa. Built in the 1920s, with a living area of over 200 m², it features traditional Italian-inspired architecture and is raised over two levels with similar floor plans. Each level has its own access, preceded by a porch supported by two columns and extended by a terrace or balcony overlooking the sea or the mountains of the hinterland. The facades are punctuated by tall arched openings that lead either to wrought iron railings or balconies highlighted by molded balustrades. Stairs, alcoves, and retaining walls have been carved directly into the rock, which outcrops extend to the top of the hill. The highly wooded land retains several old terraces where a pool could be installed. Inside, several original elements have been preserved: cement or terracotta tiles with geometric or floral patterns, painted ceilings, or moldings around the light points. On the lower level, two large cellars are dug into the rock behind a stone retaining wall. Access is also provided to reach the house by car and park a vehicle there.This description has been automatically translated from French.
