Location
In the midst of the old town of Antibes, a picturesque maze of narrow, predominantly pedestrian streets along which tourists and the local population love to stroll, are several rare period houses with a terrace providing a view over the bay and the Cape of Antibes. This peaceful district is very near to the sea and the beaches as well as the town centre and its well-known Provencal market.
Description
The house
Like most of the houses constructed in the middle of the historic town centre, this house was designed and built in a vertical manner, the land registry of the time granting but small plots. It spans 4 levels, including an independent ground floor. The rooms inside are spacious courtesy of their high ceilings which were ahead of their time. Another rare particularity is the layout of a small terrace set in the roof at the top of the building. The view is completely unobstructed. Constructed from local stone, this house is robust. The heavy oak wood beams, supporting the wooden floors, bear witness to this, whilst terracotta tile floors add to the period charm. The ceilings, individually worked on between the plaster and the old lathwork in the various rooms, are magnificent. Like a turret linking the floors, a spiral stairway goes vertically up through the house. Changing from wood to terracotta tiles depending on the floor, it elegantly features metal railings. This architectural feature is discreetly housed in a corner of the residence. Numerous cupboards built-in to the thickness of the walls make a minimum of furniture possible and thus provide additional living space. The first and third floors still have authentic fireplaces.
Our opinion
It is rare to find a townhouse with comfortable-sized rooms, near to the sea, in the peace and quiet of a delightful, narrow, pedestrian street and, above all, with an unoverlooked panoramic terrace. This property forms a serene setting in a district with a pleasant local way of life. It is a wonderful haven that should be preserved, just a few minutes from the sea, in the heart of one of the French Riviera’s most authentic towns.
