A postcard view

In the private estate of Castellet that overlooks Villefranche-sur-Mer, this recently-refurbished villa is ideally located. Between Nice and Monaco, a short distance from nearby stores and just two kilometres from the beach, it has a breathtaking “postcard-like view, enthuses the Nice Properties agency. From the garden and the terraces, one can enjoy the Villefranche harbour, stretching from the Cap Ferrat peninsula to the bay of Angels.” At the heart of a 1,100-sq m garden, the villa provides 470-sq m of living space over three levels. The ground floor houses a vast living room, a kitchen, a keeper’s apartment, a laundry room, a beautiful ensuite bedroom and a great water room. Large bay windows lead to the outdoor swimming pool fenced by a lawn and a great flagstone terrace. The upper floor also has a large living room, a kitchen that opens onto another terrace, and a Master bedroom with a large dressing. Two more rooms and two suites on the upper floor, a lift, and a four-car garage round out the amenities.
