Ideally positioned between Nice and Monaco, in the hills above Villefranche-sur-Mer, this charming renovated villa captures the essence of Mediterranean living. Located in a peaceful residential cul-de-sac, the property enjoys approximately 1,000 sq m of landscaped grounds with a private swimming pool, offering an appealing combination of tranquillity, outdoor space and convenient access to the French Riviera.

The residence provides approximately 143 sq m of living accommodation arranged across three levels. Its traditional architecture is distinguished by light-coloured façades, green shutters, terracotta roof tiles and elegant arched openings, giving the property the unmistakable character of a Riviera home.

The renovation has preserved these architectural details while introducing modern comforts suited to both year-round living and extended holiday stays.

The main reception areas are bright and welcoming. A comfortable sitting room with a fireplace connects to the dining area through a series of graceful interior arches, creating a distinctive sense of space and continuity. The separate kitchen offers a practical arrangement for everyday use and entertaining.

The villa includes three bedrooms, together with an independent studio benefiting from its own entrance. This additional space provides valuable flexibility for visiting guests or extended family, making the property particularly attractive as a second home designed for shared holidays without compromising privacy.

The Mediterranean garden is one of the residence’s defining features. A generously sized swimming pool forms the centrepiece of the outdoor areas, surrounded by stone-paved terraces, palm trees, citrus trees and mature planting.

Several outdoor seating and dining areas allow residents to enjoy different aspects of the garden throughout the day. A contemporary pergola offers welcome shade and an inviting setting for al fresco meals, while the poolside terraces provide ample space for sunbathing and relaxation.

The property is fully renovated and equipped with air conditioning, double glazing, an alarm system and an electric entrance gate. A cellar and two indoor parking spaces complete the accommodation.

Villefranche-sur-Mer is one of the French Riviera’s most appealing coastal destinations, celebrated for its picturesque harbour, historic streets and Mediterranean setting. From the villa, the town centre, local shops and amenities are easily accessible, with public transport connections to Nice and Monaco.

The property’s location makes it an attractive option for international buyers seeking a primary residence, a holiday home or a long-term residential investment on the Côte d’Azur.

Subject to the necessary planning permissions, there is also potential to increase the existing living space, offering scope to adapt the villa to individual requirements.

Combining Mediterranean architectural charm, a thoughtful renovation, landscaped gardens and a private swimming pool, this property offers a welcoming retreat in a desirable residential setting above Villefranche-sur-Mer.
