4 Bedroom Villa For Sale

Just 7kms from the nearest beach and golf course and 2 hours from Alpine skiing, this lovely 4-bedroom/3 bathroom villa is situated in the largest private park in France, in the hills above Cannes. With magnificent views of the Alps and a South-Westerly aspect, the house is in a peaceful and secluded setting in grounds of 1.7 acres with a lovely pool.




The construction of the house was completed in 1991 but there have been many modifications and upgrades since that time during which the property has remained in the same ownership and has provided wonderful holidays for 3 generations of the family. The pool is a great favourite but both the golf club and the beach at La Napoule are only 10 minutes away. The centre of Cannes with all its glitz and glamour is just 25 minutes by car and the airport at Nice about 35 minutes. An hour’s drive West gets one to Aix-en-Provence or Marseilles and an hour to the East is Monaco and the Italian border. Alpine ski resorts are accessible in just 2 hours making this a veritable ‘house for all seasons’. The nearest Autoroute junction is only 10 minutes away.




The accommodation, comprising approximately 150m2 of habitable space, consists of 4 bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a small sitting room. Three of the bedrooms have en suite bathrooms, the master suite with its own separate sitting area and private terrace, being on the first floor, the remaining bedrooms on the ground floor. The kitchen is modern and fully fitted and there is also a utility room. The very spacious sitting/dining room is on two levels and has a wood-burning stove. There is also a guest cloakroom/WC. All ground floor rooms have doors leading directly on to the main terrace with spectacular views of the lower Alps to the South-West. In addition to the stove, there are electric radiators throughout the house. Mains water is connected and drainage is to a septic tank.




Outside, there is a covered terrace and two other terraces, one surrounding the in-ground 11m x 5m pool with a pool room under the terrace, the other terrace at a lower level. There is a large parking area and a boules piste. The land immediately around the house is garden and the remainder is kept as woodland. A gated driveway leads down to the house.




The park in which the house is situated is very beautiful, with large areas remaining undeveloped and retained as ‘espace vert’. The property is situated at the extreme West, immediately adjacent to the ‘espace vert’ which is a protected area, safe from any future development. The park is fully enclosed and access is controlled. The gated entrance is manned by a gatekeeper.
