Les Colombières — Un Capolavoro Storico Sul Mediterraneo

Les Colombières — A historic masterpiece on the Mediterranean

Some properties are not simply bought but entrusted to the next generation. Les Colombières is one of these.

Located on the hills of Menton, just 20 minutes from Monte-Carlo and about 35 minutes from Nice International Airport, this extraordinary three-hectare estate offers expansive views of the Mediterranean, Cap Martin, and Monaco.

Created in the 1920s by artist, architect, and writer Ferdinand Bac, Les Colombières is a unique expression of Mediterranean living, blending Italian Renaissance, Moorish influences, and Provençal elegance.

Fully classified as a French Historic Monument—including architecture, interiors, frescoes, mosaics, and gardens—the property is a rare example of a total work of art.

The main residence offers over 500 m² of living space, carefully restored to respect the original spirit. It includes four suites, featuring an extraordinary master suite of about 120 m² with a private sea-view terrace, walk-in closets, and marble bathrooms.

The famous terraced gardens, designed by Ferdinand Bac and considered among the most beautiful in France, surround the villa with pergolas, fountains, ancient vegetation, and spectacular panoramic views of the Riviera.

The estate is completed by a 15-meter heated swimming pool, a caretaker’s house of about 100 m², and two independent apartments for guests or staff.

Les Colombières is much more than an exceptional residence: it is a fragment of Mediterranean history, a protected work of art, and one of the most unique private properties on the French Riviera.
