Ref 052014-007. Built in 1920 in the heart of the prestigious residential area of La Californie in Cannes, and with panoramic views over the "Iles de Lerins" and out to sea, this Belle Epoque style villa will steal your heart and captivate your imagination. Entirely renovated throughout with thought and delicate attention paid to the property and its' history - but with equal respect for modern conveniences and appreciation of clean lines; the result is an uplifting, light and glamorous home. Once the French Riviera holiday home of a world renown beauty and fashion celebrity, this villa is timeless and will remain a masterpiece long into the future. Only a few minutes from the sandy beaches of Cannes, the five star restaurants, upmarket boutiques and La Croisette, this villa is ideally located to offer the best of both worlds: tranquility and privacy plus convenience. LA CALIFORNIE: La Californie, one of the more exclusive neighbourhoods in Cannes, shares many characteristics with its namesake across the Atlantic: the climate, upscale residential property, luxury villas and apartments, and residents and visitors from all over the world. Situated on the eastern side of Cannes, perched within a screen of greenery and enjoying close proximity to the sea, La Californie is a hide-away of places with names borrowed from history, such as, Villa Fiesole, La Residence du Chateau de Thorenc, La Villa Fiorentina, Le Chateau Louis XIII, La Villa Rothschild, and La Villa St Prieste. La Californie is also known as "la colline des milliardaires" or the "hill of billionaires". It is home to large estates and boasts splendid and panoramic views from the snowy Alps in the east, to the red Esterel Mountains in the west, with Nice clearly visible in the distance, and the Cap d'Antibes, Juan les Pins and Cannes just below. The Isles de Lerins lie just off-shore; St Honorat with the oldest working monastery in Europe and St Marguerite home to the fort in which the Man with the Iron Mask was imprisoned for 14 years. The views are simply breathtaking and obviously the prices of property in La Californie are at prestige levels, similar to those on La Croisette. If you already know that you want to live in La Californie, you might also know you want to live in the Avenue Roi Albert. It is "the" address in La Californie, and some would say in all of Cannes. But there is competition for that claim to fame - so suffice to say that some of the most historic buildings and some of the most beautiful properties in Cannes built there by the Russians, the Americans and the English, are still there today. Victoria and Albert enjoyed their holidays there, Edward and Wallis Simpson, the Rothschilds, and the Russian aristocracy all lived, holidayed and socialised there, and most importantly, recent additions to the architecture in La Californie have respected the tradition and the quality of their forebears.
