Overview

This exceptional property in Cassis, dates from the 19th century. The house of 600 square meters sits on 60 hectares. The whole house has been completely renovated by its new owners in 2017 (interior, exterior, swimming pool and park). 

The house offers 12 bedrooms in two buildings, almost all with en suite bathrooms. Six rooms offer magnificent sea views, three overlook the park and the crown of Charles the Great Mountain, and three are located in the annex building at the entrance. 

The ground floor is dedicated to the reception rooms, all overlooking the sea: open kitchen with state-of-the-art equipment (plus pantry with laundry), dining room with a large oak table for 12 guests, summer lounge and winter lounge with fireplace. One large bedroom with en-suite bathroom is located on this floor. There is one cinema room with large screen and a video projector on the ground floor, one TV in the master bedroom and one in suite four. 

On the first floor are seven bedrooms (five of which have sea views) and a cathedral room with a playroom and living room, which overlooks a large terrace facing north-east, isolated from the Mistral. On the second floor there is the master suite: a very large room overlooking the sea with sitting area, a separated office opening onto a terrace and a very large bathroom opening onto a second terrace. In the annex you find three bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. One is a suite with a loggia with a nice view onto the garden and partial sea view. The decoration is at the same time simple and very warm: a lot of wood, linen, and sheers.  There is a laundry with two washing machines, a dryer, and ironing station. 

The house has a huge terrace of 500 m2 overlooking the beautiful beach with turquoise waters, accessible on foot in a few minutes. The property has a large covered heated pool (13 m x 5.5 m, 3 m of depth) on the sea. There are 10 sun beds, four large poufs, and two large umbrellas.  There is a petanque court and an orangery with table tennis, table soccer and gym equipment.  The south / south west orientation of the house is ideal because it allows to have sunshine until the end of the day and enjoy beautiful sunsets.
