Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat: a green oasis by the sea
With a spectacular location and breathtaking architecture, this extraordinary villa designed by Jean Nouvel is situated in one of the most in-demand areas of the Côte d’Azur. Overlooking the Mediterranean, it gives occupants the chance to live life in lush natural surroundings.
This long contemporary residence (545 sq. m) follows the plot’s topography to blend in beautifully with the vicinity. West-facing, it has a series of glass facades largely opening out onto the Bay of Villefranche. Every room in the house has incredible views of this natural harbour. And the Principality of Monaco and Nice are just a few kilometers from this quiet haven in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat. A rare gem in the heart of the Côte d’Azur, indeed.
Optimum use of space
With its stainless-steel frame and green glass roof, this villa does away with divisions between inside and out, making transparency one of its biggest assets. See without being seen. Look out at the sky, the sea and the surrounding hills. When night falls, gaze up at the stars. This stunning villa is like something out of a dream.
The entrance sets the tone, encouraging you inside. Each space is exceptional, with everything designed to be both functional and beautiful, leading to perfect results. Accordingly, there are plenty of storage spaces hidden behind rosewood facades and no dividing walls to interrupt the sense of flow.
Just like the villa, it is designed as a large living space with different features.
A pétanque court provides the backdrop for happy times to be shared with family or friends.
There is also a two-bed vegetable garden where you can grow your own produce. Perhaps try southern French favourites and the herbs key to Mediterranean cooking?
The garden also has quiet little corners from which you can lose yourself as you look out at the open sea.

A villa just waiting to welcome you
This glass villa is fully automated and has been tastefully furnished with minimalist modern decor that feels welcoming and sophisticated. Major brands include B&B Italia, Cassina, Cappelinni, Porro and Living Divani. The appliances are also premium and come from prestigious manufacturers such as Gaggenau. The sound system is by leading sound specialist Yamaha. Underfloor heating and reversible air conditioning make life here incomparably comfortable.
Materials and finishes: excellence at every turn
With cabreuva flooring, walk-in wardrobes and a library made of rosewood, Corian bathrooms (with Dornbracht fittings), and a kitchen that puts stainless steel centre stage, it’s clear that even the smallest details have been taken into consideration. And the result is perfection.
A cave full of flowers
This self-contained room has all the appearance of a luxurious cave, with its double height vaulted ceiling, spectacular sea views and private pool. A secret space nestled in greenery.
The garage
You can easily imagine James Bond having a garage like this! Covering 70 sq. m, it is located just under the master bedroom, can hold four to six cars and has direct access to the villa.
The pool
The villa has a swimming pool plus a private pool (by the master bedroom). Both are over 12 meters long, meaning you can swim lengths or have fun with family or friends. There are also loungers where you can relax.
