Tenuta Eccezionale, Una Vera Opera D'arte Totale

Located in a neighbourhood renowned for its microclimate, which enchanted many prominent figures during the Belle Époque, this estate extends over more than 3 hectares and was created through the vision of aesthete friends seeking to build an exceptional villa surrounded by a Mediterranean garden.

Over the years, this residence became the source of inspiration for an eclectic man who revealed its full beauty. Between 1920 and 1927, Ferdinand Bac, a descendant of Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, designed every corner of the property, making it the most accomplished of his works.

A painter, landscape designer, architect and writer, he transformed the estate into a Mediterranean masterpiece.

Listed as a Historic Monument in 1991, the gardens, punctuated by architectural features, pools, fountains, a patio and a temple, create an ornamental setting in harmony with nature and the sea, which have become the jewel of this exceptional estate.

Art, nature and mythology are harmoniously combined inside the villa, where allegorical themes are depicted in frescoes, murals and stained-glass windows, as well as outside, with relaxation areas that invite contemplation.

As one explores the property, Ancient Rome, Greece, Morocco, Andalusia and Venice all make their presence felt, creating a total work of art, a Gesamtkunstwerk (German).

Nothing has been overlooked to provide the comfort required by modern life. The rooms are air-conditioned, the heating system has been optimised, and more recent accommodation has been arranged to welcome family and friends.

The main villa extends over three levels and includes several adjoining rooms decorated by Ferdinand Bac. The upstairs bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, face the Mediterranean, and some have private terraces. The villa embodies a genuine art of living, like a hymn to the Mediterranean.

The heated swimming pool, with its pool house sheltered from view, is the ideal place to relax.

The estate also includes two independent apartments and a caretakers house.

This exceptional property awaits its new purpose.

Less than 50 minutes from Nice Côte dAzur Airport, the estate is located between Italy and the Principality of Monaco and is easily accessible via the main transport routes.
