Perched in Cannes’ prestigious La Californie district, Château Louis XIII stands as one of the most extraordinary properties on the Côte d’Azur.

A true architectural gem of the Belle Époque, this remarkable château was commissioned in 1895 by the Reverend John Godding, inspired by the majestic châteaux of the Loire Valley. It subsequently passed into the hands of Count Starzynski (1910-1920) and has since been restored with the greatest care. In 1982, the current owners undertook a complete renovation, adding a modern swimming pool to the sun-drenched terraces and calling on renowned Roman decorator Toni Facella Sensi to redesign the interiors.

This exceptional 8-bedroom estate, steeped in history and elegance, is located in a secure estate, just five minutes from the center of Cannes and twenty minutes from Nice international airport.

Spanning 735 m² on four levels, the château offers panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, the city of Cannes and the Esterel mountains. Nestled in 6,355 m² of sumptuously manicured landscaped gardens, it guarantees rare privacy and tranquility in one of the Côte d’Azur’s most sought-after locations.

An icon with a prestigious heritage, Château Louis XIII represents a unique opportunity to acquire a piece of the Riviera’s heritage - a property that transcends time and epitomizes luxury.
