Avenue de Miramar, 06590

This pretty waterfront villa overlooking the Mediterranean sea on the Côte d'Azur has breathtaking views towards the Bay of Cannes, les Iles de Lérins and Cap d'Antibes. Situated just fifteen minutes from the glamour of Cannes, yet only ten minutes away from the wonderful walks along the wild red cliffs of the Esterel, the villa offers the sophistication of the French Riviera in a relaxed environment.

The villa features five traditionally decorated guest bedrooms each with an en-suite bathroom and individually controlled electric heat and air conditioning. The three principal bedrooms have stunning sea views and French doors leading out to the terrace. Each en-suite bathroom has colourful hand-painted tiles, double basins with marble tops and a separate bath and shower. The two upper bedrooms are accessed by separate entrances, each bedroom having an en-suite bathroom and shower. Both the bathrooms in these rooms also have beautifully hand-painted tiles and marble basin tops.

The reception room is spacious and light and leads onto a vast upper terrace. The terrace has its own seating area, retractable awnings and panoramic views to the sea. The dining room seats 12, is warm and inviting, and is decorated in a Provençal style with local pottery and antiques. The outdoor dining area has a large terrace with a table that seats 12. The terrace and outdoor dining area make a lovely extension to the house for summer living and have magical views over the Mediterranean and the Bay of Cannes.

This waterfront villa has a well designed infinity swimming pool tiled with antique Italian marble and has an adjoining Jacuzzi. The pool has an Ozonator treatment system that eliminates the need for chlorine and provides clearer water. The pool can be heated and has a shallow end for children. An elegant terracotta terrace and lovely garden of olive trees, clematis, jasmine, lavender and herbs surround the pool.

This exceptional property is currently run as a successful business forming part of a portfolio of properties which are run as cooking schools. The property is being sold as a going concern but would also make a wonderful private home. The other properties in this portfolio are in Italy and Marrakech.
