Description

On the rooftops of the city, in a central and unspoilt district, an aesthete's property with stylistic codes as sober as they are sophisticated. In a luxurious space, art, design, photography and ceramics all play their part in a narrative that stimulates the imagination. Located on the top floor of a traditional bourgeois building, overlooking a tree-lined square with a view stretching towards the Chateau hill, the two flats form a single block with a total living area of 289 m2.

A veritable showcase of light, the property has undergone a particularly refined and accomplished renovation. A south-west-facing balcony runs along the front of both flats. These 5-bedroom flats feature a succession of rooms and a play of light, like a series of settings anchored in the dazzling light of Nice.

Works of art and design icons are perfectly arranged to create the perfect backdrop. From Shadow to Light... This extraordinary property comprises a main flat with 166 m2 of living space. It combines pure luxury with a range of selected objects arranged according to a black and white theme. Transparency and lightness are the watchwords of the 45 m2 living room, where glass walls define a corridor leading to the intimacy of the bedrooms and bathroom.

The choice of furniture and works of art reflects a desire to combine classicism with the spirit of a curiosity cabinet. Starting with a simple layout and a classic distribution of space that plays on the rhythm of the windows in the faíçade, the key idea of the project lies in this long glass corridor, a veritable prism that reflects the light and comes alive at any time with effects of material and colour.

In the master bedroom, bathed in sunlight, the same impression of serenity is conveyed by subtle shades of black and the perfect combination of simple shapes and noble materials. The elegant dressing room, with its high black oak doors designed as a dressing room, is matched by the immaculate white of the kitchen and bathroom, which have been arranged in a contemporary, uncluttered style.

Like a tribute to Malevich, the white is tone on tone. The island bath by Philippe Stark takes pride of place in the centre of the room. The shower, with its extra-flat tray and glass walls, is weightless. In the kitchen, the same sober score is played by the timeless B1' model by Bulthaup, with its white lacquered fronts, no visible handles and Corian worktop.

And from Light to Shadow... The second flat - an annex to the main one - offers around 123 m2 of living space. In this grey, parma and black flat, with its succession of rooms, there is a constant transition from light to shade. The charcoal-coloured entrance evokes a photographer's darkroom. In the gold-tinted dining room, the delicate parma-coloured walls are set around a marble fireplace.

In the living room, muted grey walls envelop furniture with a functional, modular design. Inside the spacious, domesticated spaces, a raised oak parquet floor subtly links all the rooms in the flat. The kitchen, in fossil oak and white marble designed by Antonio Citterio, features ceramics inspired by archaeological digs and a linear accumulation of design objects.

In one of the bedrooms, the spirit of the space is defined by the movable partition screen designed by Frédérick Gautier. With its concrete modules, it filters the light and the degree of privacy. The bathroom features a graphic, two-tone score: the velvety black of a Fenix suspended bath unit meets a bath designed by Philippe Starck and a shower area tiled in black.

It should be noted that the attic space has a floor area of 289 m2 and a surface area of around 120 to 130 m2, making it possible to extend and rethink the living areas, offering a project with great restructuring potential. A unique property with a skillfully orchestrated scenography, suspended in the heart of the town. A haven of serenity, comfort and light, where you can enjoy the Riviera spirit.

Many overseas buyers in France do not realise they can lose thousands of pounds through adverse currency exchange rate movements.

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £84,322 more.
