Vacation Property Details
The house was completely renovated and restored in 2009 to take advantage of its hillside situation, but also to adapt it to its botanical and geological context.One can tell that an architect had a hand in this... serene and lovely setting
The swimming pool and its surroundings are especially agreeable, perfectly balancing its dominant position, lanscaping and very complete equipment.
A sculpted metal door opens onto a patio with large jars, reminiscent of Andalucía In the centre, a basin with fountains brings life to this area which distributes access to the house via the doors under the arcades.
The kitchen of the house that is ideally equipped; gaz and electric hob, electric oven, steam oven, mw oven, American style fridge, washing machine, coffee machine, electric kettle, toaster…opens onto a large space, bathed in light, where the living room and the dining room are located. Stone floors and furnishings in a pleasing harmony of beige and grey, glass, and complementary fabrics.The simplicity of a contemporary decor, with few, but beautiful objects, minimal, but tasteful furnishings, very comfortable sofas and a fantastic volcanic stone fire-place (insert)
This living area faces south beyond bay windows that seem to replace the walls, and extends via a terrace creating the effect of a being on a boat, facing the sea and overlooking the garden.Located between the salon and the dining room an interior stairway leads to a guest powder room and to 5 large bedrooms and to the children’s bedroom situated at garden level, of which 4 have independent access via their private terraces.
The terraced exotic garden, that also has flat areas, is planted with rare trees and provides a harmonious setting for the house, with a succession of lawns interlaced with stone walls and paths. One side of the house hides another basin, providing a calm and meditative atmosphere.
This beautiful architect-designed house, backing onto the slopes of Cap Canaille, is perfectly set in a luxurious tropical garden combining mysterious corners and exotic plants, and dominates majestically the surrounding sea and mountain views. The village of Cassis is nearby, with its year-round activities, but the Quartier des Crêtes is calm and peaceful, ... yet just 15 minutes away on foot is the picturesque and charming port, a full of life, with restaurants, cafes, elegant boutiques, a casino, discothèques (young people love Cassis) and a sand beach, where you can dine or drink an apéritif on the waterfront, or hire a boat to explore the world-famous calanques - that are like fingers of the sea that reach inland, carving out dizzying peaks and giving the sea its calmness and incomparable colour with their crystal-clear water and majestic cliffs, or the islands which are scattered along this part of the Mediterranean coastline.
