This impressive Provençale bastide was built to the highest specifications on a choice plot of land affording magnificent views of St-Paul de Vence to the east, of La Colle sur Loup to the west, and with its swimming pool & terraces to the south. Attention to detail and quality of workmanship & materials have been the watch-words of its design and construction : like the specially designed and hand-carved front door in solid yew wood, like the bespoke wrought-iron bannisters, like the provençale kitchen.
