Description
Located on a quiet private property in the winding hills above Nice, this one-bedroom apartment occupies the ground floor of a larger house with two apartments upstairs. With an expansive living area spilling out to a terrace and lovely pool with spectacular views of the Mediterranean, it's a relaxing space for a couple or a small family with children.
From from the cobblestone parking area beside the house, one enters the apartment directly into the livingroom, which doubles as an entertainment/game room. Furnished with two sofabeds, four soft leather swivel armchairs, pool table and foosball, or "baby foot" table, there is ample space for hanging out indoors. Tiled floors throughout keep the apartment cool during the hot Riviera summers but have radiant heat to keep you warm during the colder months. An open kitchen is equipped with an American-style fridge, gas range, wood stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher and espresso machine. The bedroom, adorned with cheerful flowered wall fabric, has a double bed, a small setee and a window and door to the house's side entry. This bedroom has its own bathroom with shower, washing machine and separate WC. A second bathroom near the entry has a shower and toilet.
From the main living space, sliding doors take you directly out to the covered terrace with immediate access to the beautiful curved pool. A large dining table and barbecue encourage pleasurable outdoor meals. Encircled by local vegetation, the pool terrace offers breathtaking views of the coastline and city of Nice far below.
Nearby Attractions
Located off the Moyenne Corniche, the picturesque serpentine road that winds above the Mediterranean from Nice towards Italy, the property is a ten to fifteen minute drive from the center of Nice and just outside the beautiful perched town of Villefranche-sur-Mer.
In Nice, one can experience the vibrancy of a thriving metropolis as well as the charm of an ancient town; first established by the ancient Greeks, it has a wonderful old district for ambling at leisure and discovering markets, sweet shops and wonderful restaurants. Diners will enjoy trying local specialities such as Salade Niçoise, pissadilière, pan bagnat or fresh gelato. There are excellent museums to be discovered as well: the Musée Matisse in the hills outside of the center of town features some of the artist's most impressive paper cutouts, and the Musée Chagall, a little further, is a phenomenal space in which to experience Chagall's large-scale masterworks.
With sandy beaches and a lovely harbor tucked into an alcove sheltered by forested hills, Villefranche-sur-Mer has great cafés and restaurants dotting the waterfront and hidden in its steep ancient streets and stairwells. Other nearby sights to visit are St. Jean Cap-Ferrat, with its peninsula offering beautiful strolls through exotic gardens and sumptuous villa neighborhoods, and Èze, with its uncommonly good vantage points from which to admire the gorgeous Mediterranean blue. Monaco and the Italian border are a half-hour to forty-five minutes' drive way.
