There are around 50 steps up from the parking area to the house in front of which there is a twelve-metre long pool which has a shallow rim around the sides, steps for access and a handy outdoor shower. There is plenty of garden furniture for relaxing and to the side of the villa is very pleasant pergola. At the end of the garden is a grass area sheltered by a beautiful olive tree and steps lead down to a terrific boules area where you can play the French national sport whilst enjoying the stunning views of Nice and the sea beyond. The garden is not really suited for very small children unless parents are very attentive. There is parking space for two cars. From the villa, you can walk a few hundred metres up the quiet lane to the end where there is a barrier which is the start of a marked trek into the hills and mountains beyond, ideal for an evening stroll.

This is an exceptional property as it is secluded and peaceful as well as interesting and comfortable, it has a feel good factor in a nice way, nothing flashy, just tasteful. The views are quite incredible, right over the city, the port of Nice and the bay. To be able to walk and get the bread as well as eat out in very good restaurants and come home on foot is a bonus too.

Guardian at the entrance of the property in a small studio. Very discreet and completely independent of the villa.
