Why this property will seduce you

  • Microclimate Neighborhood:
  • Ferdinand Bac Architecture:
  • Historic Gardens:
Located in an area renowned for its microclimate that has enchanted many personalities during the Belle Époque, this estate spread over more than 3 hectares was born from the desire of aesthetic friends to create an exceptional villa surrounded by a Mediterranean garden.

Over the years, this residence has been a source of inspiration for an eclectic man who revealed its beauty. Between 1920 and 1927, Ferdinand Bac, a descendant of Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, designed every corner to make it his most accomplished work. Both a painter, landscape designer, architect, and writer, he transformed this estate into a Mediterranean masterpiece.

Classified as a Historical Monument in 1991, the gardens punctuated with architectural features such as ponds, fountains, patios, and temples create an ornamental scenography with nature and the sea, which have become the setting for an exceptional estate.

Art, nature, and mythology harmonize both inside the villa where allegorical themes are depicted in frescoes, murals, and stained glass, as well as outside with relaxation spaces that invite daydreaming.

As you explore, Ancient Rome, Greece, Morocco, Andalusia, and Venice come to life in this home, creating a total work of art, a "Gesamtkunstwerk" (in German).

Nothing has been overlooked to ensure the comfort required by modern life. The rooms are air-conditioned, heating has been optimized, and newer accommodations have been arranged to host family and friends.

The main villa spans three levels and features several adjoining rooms decorated by Ferdinand Bac. The upstairs bedrooms, with their en-suite bathrooms, face the Mediterranean and some have private terraces. The villa reflects a true art of living as a hymn to the Mediterranean.

The heated pool with its pool house, shielded from prying eyes, is the preferred place for relaxation.

The estate also includes two independent apartments as well as a caretaker's house.

This exceptional place awaits its new destiny.

Less than 50 minutes from Nice Côte d'Azur airport, the estate is located between Italy and the Principality of Monaco, easily accessible by communication routes.
