Built in the early 1900s, this elegant family home spans three levels in the heart of Roucas-Blanc. Hidden around a corner of a lane that resembles a Mediterranean village, it reveals a preserved world where whitewashed facades, blue woodwork, terraced gardens, and sea views create a true haven of peace.
Reinterpreted with great sensitivity, the house blends the charm of the old with a distinctly Mediterranean style. Immaculate walls, antique terracotta tiles, a wooden glass roof, lattice screens, natural materials, and touches of deep blue harmonize with lush vegetation that seems to flow into the living spaces. The first level features a large open area comprising a study-library, a living room warmed by a fireplace, and a dining room set beneath a generous glass roof. Adjacent to this space, the kitchen, highlighted by deep greens and Mediterranean blues, becomes the vibrant heart of the home. Wide openings erase the boundaries between inside and outside, allowing light and the garden to naturally fill every room. Extending from here, a first terrace offers an unobstructed view of the valley and the Mediterranean Sea. Below, the terraced garden unfolds a botanical walk where agaves, cacti, olive trees, bougainvillea, and Mediterranean plants create a lush setting. Nestled in this green oasis, the pool also enjoys a pleasant sea view, providing an ideal setting for long summer days.
The second level houses a guest bedroom opening onto its terrace, along with two additional bedrooms, one featuring an en-suite shower room. The other bedroom benefits from a bathroom in Majorelle blue tones, open to the landscape and the shimmering Mediterranean.
The top floor is dedicated to privacy, with a light-filled yoga studio and a spacious master suite including a dressing room and a shower room. At every level, the terraces offer new perspectives on the Roucas-Blanc hills, surrounding gardens, and the sea that quietly accompanies daily life. Air circulation, numerous fans, white walls, abundant vegetation, and natural materials create a remarkable sense of coolness. The whole evokes the finest Mediterranean homes, between Marseille and the Cyclades, in an atmosphere that is both soothing, family-oriented, and timeless.
