This superb and highly original apartment-villa was built in 1843. It was totally renovated in 2006 and

transformed into an elegant and stylish house with sea view in a very exclusive area of the illustrious

district of La Californie, with views of the sea and also of the sumptuous Chateau Scott, a Scottish gothic

style chateau which was built in 1867 for the famous inventor Michael Scott. The house is on two levels.

You can enter by either, but the main entrance is on the upper floor, accessible either by a bougainvilleacovered

staircase or a built-in lift. Here you have a stunning loft-style living space of 70m2 which includes

a modern American-style kitchen overlooking the living area with views out to sea. The dining room

opens onto the sizeable 50m2 terrace with sea views. There is also access to a roof-top solarium of 70m2

from which you have 360 degree sea views including the Iles de Lerins and the Cap d'Antibes. Beautiful!

Downstairs on the ground floor (which you can access through the internal lift or by a staircase) there are

two bedrooms, one with en-suite dressing room and bathroom, the other with a shower room (with multi

jets for a serious power shower!) and dressing room. There is also a separate loo with hand basin, a utility

area and a small kitchen area close to the garden so you can avoid going upstairs whenever you wish to

top up your chilled glass of rosé... The garden is rectangular and highly unusual in that all along the left

hand wall you will find the original rings that were used to keep the horses tied up. There is also a Spa pool

with outside lighting, a south facing terrace where you can enjoy the calm and sunny surroundings without

being overlooked. The house has been fitted with a reversible air conditioning/heating system, interphone

system, double glazing, electric shutter systems (that can be controlled on individual floor or whole building

settings) and an alarm. The double garage provides space for your cars or storage (as there is also parking

space on the private road outside the house) or could be converted into an additional bedroom with

en-suite.
