A residence with a modern allure, with an infinity pool, in grounds of one hectare, in the wooded parts of Sanary-sur-Mer, with views of the Mediterranean Sea.
This property is perched in the hills in wooded surroundings, only 5 km from Sanary-sur-Mer's port and picturesque village centre in the Var area. From this natural promontory, the view takes in the Mediterranean Sea and the Embiez Islands that dot the horizon. Several tarmacked lanes in great condition lead up to the entrance gate, from which a concrete drive winds along 150 metres to the residence. The nearest beaches are very close to the village. Toulon is the administrative hub of the department and hosts all essential services plus a station from which high-speed TGV trains put Paris with 4 hours' reach. Marseille-Provence international airport can be reached in one hour via the coastal motorway.
The trapezium-shaped, 1-hectare grounds follow the natural relief of the hills in the form of terraces. The entrance to the property is in its lower reaches, while the house and swimming pool are approximately halfway up the grounds. The lower and higher areas of the property are wooded, in keeping with local planning recommendations, though the central plateau has been carefully and harmoniously landscaped.
The property is made up of three separate volumes. To the west, a large studio and a roofed garage can be found adjacent to a parking area for several vehicles. The house, built in 2000, is situated in the centre of the plot and boasts gabled and hipped roofs, made of half-round tiles, underlined by triple genoise corbels. The Mediterranean pink façade punctuated with small-paned, arched windows with white-painted masonry frames enhances the edifice's southern French character. It also boasts two balconies, whose white-painted wrought iron guard-rails perfectly echo those surrounding the patio.
Inside the building, a vast, approximately 120-m² reception room looks out onto a large partially covered patio, through two sliding patio doors. On the top floor, the master bedroom leads out onto a roof terrace. To the east, a third, more modest construction is linked to the main house via a corridor with a second entrance door. It possesses three bedrooms upstairs, each with a lavatory, above a vast space used as a pool-house, which could be converted into a sixth bedroom if necessary. The 10-metre by 5-metre infinity pool is located to the east of the terrace, surrounded by wooden decking and encircled by an elegant balustrade.
The main houseThe wooden entrance door is located on the western side of the main building and leads directly into an impressively sized 117-m² living room with an exposed roof frame painted in white above a lounge area boasting a modern fireplace with fluid contours. The rest of the room houses a dining area and a semi-open-plan kitchen, beneath a more classic ceiling dotted with spotlights. The gentle yellow of the walls stands in perfect harmony with the light-coloured floor tiles. Two large, patio doors can be fully opened, sliding into encasements hidden in the walls, to allow the interior and exterior to blend completely. There are also two other windows, to the west and east in the kitchen, as well as several small windows on the northern side, allowing light to stream in and seem omnipresent.
The kitchen, which is separated from the dining room by a bar, leads to a scullery. A corridor with a second entrance door opening onto the patio, links the main house to the annex to the east. On the northern side of the house, staircase leads to the upper floors. After a small landing, there is an almost 40-m² master bedroom. It includes a sleeping area that is bathed in light thanks to two windows facing south and east. There is sufficient space for an office area to be set up. A large bathroom, in Moroccan inspired shades ...
