Perched in the highly sought-after hills of La Californie, just 300m from the Mediterranean shoreline, this luxury Art Deco villa dating from the late 1920s perfectly embodies the timeless elegance of the French Riviera. Combining historic charm with modern comfort, it offers exceptional outdoor spaces reminiscent of a private resort, complete with panoramic sea views.
Built on 3 levels, this prestigious property gracefully blends the character of its period architecture with high-end finishes. The main level is designed for entertaining, featuring a fully equipped open-plan kitchen that flows into the dining area, and a spacious, light-filled living room with breathtaking views of the sea and landscaped gardens. This floor also includes a cloakroom and guest WC.
On the upper level, the luxurious master suite offers an intimate and elegant setting, complete with a walk-in wardrobe, a bright home office, and a refined marble bathroom featuring a bathtub, walk-in shower, double vanity, bidet, and heated towel rails. A second en-suite bedroom, also facing the Mediterranean, completes this floor.
The garden level is ideal for hosting family or guests, comprising two additional bedrooms, a shared bathroom, a secondary living room, and a spectacular oak wine cellar capable of storing several hundred bottles.
Outside, this villa with infinity pool truly captures the essence of the Côte d’Azur lifestyle. From the landscaped gardens and expansive terraces, the panoramic view stretches across the Lérins Islands, Palm Beach, and the Cap d’Antibes. The covered pool house offers a flexible space for relaxing or entertaining, equipped with a shower and WC, while the fully equipped summer kitchen (with built-in gas barbecue, deep fryer, stone countertops, and a large dining table under a retractable awning) is perfect for stylish outdoor gatherings.
The property also benefits from two secure garages — one double and one single — offering ample parking.
This prime Cannes address in the prestigious Californie district places you just minutes from the beaches, Palm Beach, the ports of Golfe-Juan, and approximately 20 minutes from Nice International Airport, providing swift access to international destinations.

Cannes occupies a particular position on the Côte d’Azur that sets it apart from its neighbours. The city combines a working port, a serious film and conference calendar, and one of the most recognisable seafronts in Europe, the Boulevard de la Croisette, without ever feeling like a resort that closes in winter. The hillside district of La Californie, rising above the eastern end of the bay, has been the address of choice for wealthy residents since the Belle Époque, its elevated position offering unobstructed views across the Lérins Islands and the Cap d’Antibes.
Daily life in Cannes centres on the Marché Forville for produce, the restaurants along the Rue Saint-Antoine in Le Suquet, and the boutiques of Rue d’Antibes. Palm Beach, at the eastern tip of the Croisette, provides a private beach and casino. La Californie itself is a short drive from all of these, with the Plage du Midi and Golfe-Juan marina also within easy reach.
Cannes is served by its own train station on the main Marseille to Ventimiglia line, with direct TGV services connecting to Paris in roughly five and a half hours. Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport is approximately 25 kilometres to the east, reachable in around 25 to 30 minutes by car, and operates direct routes to most major European cities as well as long-haul destinations. Monaco is approximately 45 minutes by road.
