Nestled on the prosperous peninsula of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, this hillside villa looks west across the glittering Rade de Villefranche-sur-Mer towards the UNESCO listed district of Mont Boron. The home spans three levels, including a grand living and dining space with its own sea view balcony. For those comfortable reaching the summit, the reward is a stunning rooftop terrace, complete with a large private pool where swimmers can peek through a window into a top floor corridor. You'll be moments away from beaches, parks, and other stunning mansions in an area known for its affluence, while Nice, the Alpes-Maritimes capital city, is half an hour by car.

Home truths:
*This home has several levels and inclines, rising from the street at the bottom of a slope to the rooftop pool and terrace. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
*There’s free parking available in the garage on the premises.
*If you're travelling by plane, Nice Côte d'Azur is the nearest airport – it's a thirty-minute drive from this home.
