Villa del Mare, Roquebrune Cap Martin, French Riviera
Villa del Mare stands as an architectural masterpiece, exuding the grandeur of the Belle Époque era. This historic marvel, dating back to 1904, was meticulously crafted by Hans Georg Tersling, a renowned architect responsible for Monte Carlo's iconic Hotel Metropole. Nestled along the enchanting coastlines of Cap Martin, Villa del Mare epitomizes elegance while offering breathtaking sea vistas. Comprising multiple distinct villas, del Mare includes a main residence, a secondary dwelling, and a guest lodge.
With symmetrical perfection, Villa del Mare boasts over 12,000 square feet of unparalleled opulence in its main villa. Its magnificent façade showcases timeless Belle Époque elements, featuring semi-circular colonnaded loggias inspired by Italian Renaissance and French styles. A double-story foyer captivates with aristocratic grandeur, adorned with exquisite marble, onyx, and granite finishes. Original Chiaroscuro and Romanticist paintings grace stately halls adorned with neo-Palladian paneling, luxurious brocade seating, and opulent vases. The Villa offers accommodation for up to 27 guests across three immaculate buildings, with 13 double bedrooms and one single. The primary residence, with seven sumptuous bedrooms, allows guests to revel in the refinement of a bygone era. An autonomous VIP lodge, styled in Louis XVI opulence, awaits on the east side of the courtyard. The secondary modern Provencal Villa, spanning nearly 7,000 square feet, houses six lavish ensuite bedrooms and an additional staff bedroom. This secondary estate seamlessly blends contemporary comforts with chic nautical character.
The Villa's resort-style exteriors resemble a paradise on Earth. A central infinity pool, measuring an impressive 82 by 39 feet, offers panoramic vistas of Monaco and meticulously manicured lawns. The Villa boasts a versatile court that can be transformed from a basketball court into a tennis court. A regal pool house, adorned with mosaic tiles, complements the property's lavish amenities. The secondary Villa features its own private pool across the sprawling eight-acre estate. Immaculately maintained gardens are adorned with fragrant native species, including olive, fruit, palm, mimosa, and pine trees, along with vibrant flower beds.
