Frankly, we think it would be an understatement to say this home is filled with artwork. This beautiful home is simply soaked with history and art in every room. It was actually built by a famous perfumer in 1860 and had been known to inhabit frequent visitors such as writer Antoine de Saint Exupery and actor Gerard Philippe who were family friends!
This beauty sits amongst olive trees, 6 hectacres of flat land, and Mediterranean wild life. The rooms connect beautifully with a play of color, artwork upon artwork, and antique pieces. Art fills every room and it extends to the outdoor space.
The rooms harmoniously move from one to the other with tall arch doorways creating an elegant flow. The antique doors give each entry foyer a special feel that is not easily labeled or described. Artwork, photographs, and wall drawings adorn the walls. Romantic lighting and unique lamps decorate this home and add to its enchanting, artistic atmosphere. These charming rooms are filled with comfortable, modern and antique furniture in a discreetly romantic and historic environment.
The studio is an Artist’s dream and is drenched with art on the floor and the walls. The beamed ceilings enhance the space and the tall windows allow plenty of sunlight.
Outside you will find a relaxing covered porch and a swimming pool surrounded by beautiful flowers in antique pots. Along with a gorgeous, romantic garden that has a Venus de Milo replica amongst lush flowers.
