Villas in Menton

Built in 1888, an elegant stone villa overlooks the Garavan port on the Franco-Italian border. This rare property retains the charm of a bygone era, set in an idyllic location with stunning sea views. The Garavan district is exclusively residential and still preserves much of its Belle Époque architecture, making it a protected and highly sought-after area. The property requires complete renovation to unlock its potential as a magnificent family home or vacation residence. Gates on the boulevard open to a panoramic drive that gently descends to the villa and parking area. Alternatively, a garage is situated at boulevard level with steps leading to the villa. The main house of 550 m² is arranged over three levels and offers generous spaces with high ceilings that emphasize its stately character. Spacious terraces for entertaining are surrounded by private gardens, a private drive and a pool. The gardens are planted with a variety of Mediterranean plants and exotic fruit trees. On the main level, an original arched entrance door dated 1888 opens into a reception hall. A double living room with a fireplace overlooks large dining terraces and gardens, with sea views. An adjacent library or TV room, a dining room connected to the living room through arches and dividing columns, then leads to the kitchen. A large family kitchen with a central work area and adjoining breakfast room with arched elements opening onto the pool.
