With glistening views of the Mediterranean Sea to one side and the rooftops of Le Turbie to another, this palatial hilltop villa just North of Monaco looks good from all angles. It’s a scene best admired from the vast terrace, which hugs the exteriors of this luxurious home and leads down to a panoramic private pool and shady veranda – the perfect spot for lazy post- lunch siestas. Pad inside across the cool marble floors to discover showstopping interiors worthy of any Monaco high roller. Think calm, muted colourways, feature lighting and a state-of-the-art kitchen and dining area that's tailor-made for glamourous dinner parties. While upstairs, take your pick from four bedrooms as elegant as the next, each boasting ensuite bathrooms and walk-in dressing rooms. It’s also well set up for remote working, with dedicated desk spaces dotted about the home. When you’re ready for a change of scene, you’ll need a car to explore from here. Get off to a flying start in your local hilltop town of Le Turbie (less than a five-minute drive) for a dose of French Riveria charm. Its winding streets leading to the photo-worthy landmark, the Trophy of Augustus, are an afternoon well spent. The coast is an easy drive away for a dip in the sea. Or follow the glitterati down to Monaco (a short drive) for lunch at its see-and-be-seen restaurants – you’ll be in good company.
