_International property of the week: A villa in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

Live the high life with mesmerising 180º views of the estates, small marinas and wooded headland of St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat from Villa Neo. This perfectly presented villa is built into the steep hillside above the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer providing idyllic Riviera scenery.

About the property

The villa’s wide terrace, infinity pool and principal rooms face the Mediterranean Sea so by day the small sail boats moored in the azure water provide a languid but ever-changing picture while after dark, the lights of the peninsula gently sparkle against the night sky.

Sympathetic restoration work combined with a rigid attention to detail make Villa Neo a wonderfully elegant and supremely comfortable home with high-end finishes, wide windows and a contemporary pale palette of marble, wood and stone. 

Over three floors there are seven bedrooms and bathrooms, three reception rooms, a gym with spa, staff accommodation and private parking including garages. 

An indoor media room links to an outdoor cinema where there is also a lawn edged by rose bushes, low stone walls and a cascading waterfall that tumbles down the rock face into the infinity pool, giving this unforgettable home its memorable name.
