La Reve d'Azur, a stunning seaside estate on the biggest plot of Villefranche sur Mer.
Unique on the market, ideally located between Nice and Monaco, this magnificent Belle Époque villa was built in 1911 and was completely renovated in 2016 with the utmost care by a notable Italian architect, Alberto Mariotti.
This historic estate called “La Rêve d’Azur” once belonged to the Voisin brothers – pioneers of French aviation and creators of Europe’s first manned aircraft.
This spectacular residence offers 545 m2 of living space over 3 floors, and offers 4 double bedrooms each with their own bathroom, and several dressing rooms.
You will have a pleasant living room, a large dining room, a fully fitted and equipped independent Miele kitchen with a central island.
All the living rooms of the villa have large openings overlooking the sea, and many spacious terraces offer a breathtaking view of the bay of Villefranche and Cap Ferrat.
A gym adjoining the master bedroom elegantly completes the magnificent suite.
The building being oriented to the East and enjoying a dominant position, you will be the first to enjoy the sunrise above Cap Ferrat and the famous Villa Ephrussi de Rotschild, as well as incredible light a good part of the day.
Another major asset, a magnificent roof terrace with a living room and a summer kitchen to enjoy the view of the yachts and cruise ships entering the bay of Villefranche.
This extraordinary property has marble floors and walls of the highest quality, as well as heated parquet floors in the superior rooms.
A reversible air conditioning system is installed throughout the property.
In the semi-basement there is a staff apartment with independent entrance, but connected to the main facilities.
It includes 2 bedrooms, an equipped kitchen and a bathroom. On the same level, there is a large laundry room and a storage room.
Its position, just 3 minutes walk from a sandy beach, and only 33 meters above sea level (something impossible to find on the Côte d'Azur) as well as its vast land of 16,500 m2 , embellished with a garden with Mediterranean plants, a majestic double staircase leading to the spacious swimming pool, make this property absolutely unique.
For greater privacy, the property also offers two additional buildings: a 29 m2 studio for the staff, with a fully equipped kitchen, a bathroom and a dressing room; and a 69 m2 veranda-type house for the gymnasium, with massage room, bathroom and storage rooms.
Villefranche-sur-Mer, a small seaside resort of 6,000 inhabitants, nestled in the heart of the bay, whose center of the village, a former fishing port with colorful facades, gives an Italian and picturesque charm, is only a few steps away from Nice and 30 minutes from the nearest international airport. Monaco, its princely palace and its nightlife are only 15km away.
We like: the historic charm of a prestigious Belle Époque residence, the generous landscaped grounds and the high-quality renovation offering all the modern comforts while keeping the historic charm of the building.
