On the western shore of Cap d’Antibes, Villa La Cigaronne enjoys one of the most sought-after positions on the French Riviera: a true first-line waterfront setting, with sweeping views across the turquoise water of the bay to Juan-les-Pins, the Bay of Cannes and the mountains of the Estérel beyond.
The house is a classic Belle Époque villa, with pale ochre façades, a terracotta roof, wrought-iron balconies and a wide, curved terrace raised above the lawn. It stands at the centre of approximately 9,000 square metres of landscaped park, a scale of land that almost never comes to market on the Cap. A gravel driveway circles through mature umbrella pines, cypresses and tall palms before arriving at the house.
Inside, a double-height entrance hall sets the tone, with a gallery of ornate wrought ironwork above, columns and arches leading into the reception rooms, and marble floors with inlaid geometric motifs. A sweeping staircase rises past stained-glass windows to the upper floor. The ground floor opens almost entirely to the sea: two reception rooms and a formal dining room sit behind floor-to-ceiling sliding glass, so the terrace, the lawn and the water become part of the living space.
The villa offers around 513 square metres of living space with thirteen rooms, including ten bedrooms and ten bathrooms. Two master suites open onto private terraces facing the sea. The south-east orientation brings light into the house from early morning.
The grounds include a heated swimming pool with pool house and sun terrace, a full-size tennis court, Mediterranean gardens and a natural spring. The property is fully fenced and secured, with electric gate, alarm, video entry, armoured door, exterior lighting and air conditioning throughout.
An architectural project has already been submitted for planning permission. It gives the future owner a foundation for a prestige renovation that preserves the villa’s Belle Époque character while introducing the highest contemporary standards.
Antibes old town, Juan-les-Pins and the beaches of the Cap are minutes away, with Nice Côte d’Azur airport around thirty minutes by car. Information on the risks to which this property is exposed is available on the Géorisques website: https://www.georisques.gouv.fr/
