Villa Portrait, South of France
New to the market, Villa Portrait is set in the French Riviera with contemporary interiors, a glorious swimming pool and unobstructed views towards the Valmasque forest, just 18km from the sparkle of Cannes. Villa Portrait has recently undergone a complete renovation by its art-loving owners who have a keen eye for interior design and modern style. Families and friends can relax surrounded by large pine and palm trees in the villa’s beautiful outside area and terrace. The garden provides the perfect place for al-fresco dining looking out towards the inviting swimming pool and hills beyond. Atmospherically lit up in the evening, adults can enjoy a glass of rosé at sundown before the stars start to appear in the clear skies. Set in a quiet and residential area, between picturesque Biot and Valbonne, the joys of the Côte d’Azur are so close, with beaches and golf courses near by for all the family to enjoy.
