Is This The Most Impressive Home On The French Riviera?

Standing on the largest plot of land in Villefranche-sur-Mer – a glittering enclave between Nice and Monaco – this is the kind of home that belongs in a Hollywood film. Take a look inside a truly magnificent villa on the French Riviera.

Inside A €47M Villa On The French Riviera

While there’s certainly no shortage of spectacular homes in the South of France, this Belle Époque-style villa is truly palatial. Known as La Reve d’Azur, it dates back to 1911 – but it was totally transformed by renowned Italian architect Alberto Mariotti in 2016. It now boasts seven bedrooms, a roof terrace, a heated outdoor pool and a gym.

The sprawling estate itself is set back from the beach and framed by lush forest on three sides. Within the immaculately landscaped gardens, you’ll find a handsome one-bedroom studio and a separate suite containing massage rooms and the gym. The main house, however, is the star of the show.

Set across three floors, the house is complete with four bedroom suites – most with their own dressing rooms – alongside an enormous living room, elegant dining room and separate kitchen. Expect soaring ceilings, marble floors and (of course) dazzling sea views from every window.

The basement level of the house is complete with a self-contained two-bedroom flat, while the roof level is kitted out with a breathtaking terrace featuring a lounge area and an outdoor kitchen. Take a seat up here and you can see right across the harbour, watching as yachts dock in the bay. It just might be the most coveted spot on the Côte d’Azur…

La Reve d’Azur is available through Luxury Portfolio for €47 million. For more information, visit luxuryportfolio.com
