Imagine waking up every morning to the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean as your backdrop. This early 20th-century villa, built on the foundations of an ancient mill, combines Provençal historic charm with contemporary luxury in one of the most coveted destinations on the French Riviera.
This spectacular villa is located in Carry-le-Rouet, a charming coastal town on the French Riviera, just 20 minutes from Marseille-Provence international airport and 23 minutes from downtown Marseille. Situated on a privileged promontory with panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, the property is part of a unique architectural ensemble that preserves the original tower of a historic mill dating from the 1960s.
The estate sits on 3,449 m² of perfectly manicured Mediterranean gardens, where century-old pines, palm trees and native vegetation create an oasis of privacy and tranquility. The protected coastal location, facing the Côte Bleue Regional Marine Park, guarantees unobstructed sea views and direct access to the coastal path.
The villa, with 494 m² built distributed over multiple levels, has been carefully restored preserving all original architectural elements. Its ochre and terracotta-colored stucco exteriors, arched windows with natural stone frames and Arabic tile roofs with Genoese cornices create an ensemble of incomparable Mediterranean elegance.
The main entrance leads to spacious reception halls with exposed wooden beam ceilings, terracotta tile floors and natural stone fireplaces. The library with mezzanine includes carved wooden stairs and integrated bookshelves, while the grand main salon stands out for its large panoramic windows that flood the space with Mediterranean light.
The 58 m² kitchen combines functionality and Provençal style, with exposed beam ceilings, central island equipped with professional appliances, multicolored decorative tiles and direct access to the gardens. The formal dining room features a spectacular vaulted ceiling and capacity for large family gatherings.
The night area houses 6 bedrooms and multiple bathrooms, including the master suite with sunny terrace and privileged sea views. An independent 3-bedroom apartment on the ground floor offers flexibility for guests or service staff.
The terraced gardens include multiple Mediterranean-style cobblestone patios with octagonal stone fountain, covered terraces with rustic beam roofs and stone columns. The 11x5 meter swimming pool with limestone and terracotta edges is surrounded by decorative decking with geometric patterns in green and terracotta tones.
The outbuildings include summer kitchen, fitness room, studio with bathroom and multiple storage spaces, creating a complete and elegant living environment.
Carry-le-Rouet is part of the Côte Bleue (Blue Coast), a protected region that combines the best of the French Mediterranean: crystal-clear water beaches, hidden coves among pines and protected marine reserves. The town, which owes its fame to actor Fernandel who established his second residence here, preserves all the charm of an authentic Provençal fishing village.
The award-winning beaches such as Cap Rousset, Fernandel and Les Baumettes offer waters of extraordinary clarity ideal for diving and water sports. The traditional port concentrates specialized restaurants in Mediterranean gastronomy, from traditional bouillabaisse to local sea urchins.
The proximity to Marseille (20 minutes by direct train), Cassis, Aix-en-Provence and the entire French Riviera places the property at the heart of major cultural and tourist routes. Marseille-Provence international airport, with direct connections to 128 destinations in 36 countries, is just 20 minutes away.
This villa represents the unique opportunity to acquire an exceptional property in one of the most exclusive enclaves of the French Riviera, where history, luxury and natural beauty converge in a dream home facing the Mediterranean.
