L’Odyssée Contemporary Estate with Sea Views Saint-Paul de Vence

Description

Just five minutes from the celebrated village of Saint-Paul de Vence, L’Odyssée combines striking architecture, generous living space, and more than 2.7 hectares of private, south-facing grounds. Views stretch across the surrounding hills towards the Mediterranean, while mature woodland gives the estate a rare sense of seclusion.

Inspired by Brutalist architecture, the villa combines bold geometric forms with stone, concrete and expansive glazing. The landscape softens its sculptural presence: a planted roof follows the terrain’s contours, and established Mediterranean vegetation anchors the building in its surroundings.

The property offers approximately 656 m² of interior space, with a total built footprint approaching 1,000 m². At its center, an impressive reception area of approximately 168 m² opens onto the landscape through extensive glazing. Generous proportions create room for large gatherings, while the views provide a natural focal point throughout the day.

An independent kitchen of approximately 60 m² is supported by a professional stainless-steel preparation kitchen, pantry, wine cellar, and laundry facilities, providing a practical foundation for large-scale entertaining.

The principal accommodation includes a spacious master suite with a private terrace, dressing room, and bathroom facilities, along with additional en-suite bedrooms. Two independent apartments, each with a living area, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, offer flexibility for visiting family, guests or staff.

A gym, wellness areas, sauna, cellar space, technical rooms and garaging complete the accommodation.

Outside, broad lawns and landscaped areas meet Mediterranean woodland and century-old pines. An infinity pool, jacuzzi, ornamental pond, and extensive terraces offer many places to gather or retreat. A heated terrace extends the outdoor season, while the exceptional roof terrace enjoys panoramic views towards the Baie des Anges.

An Architectural Vision to Complete

The current owner has undertaken an ambitious transformation of L’Odyssée. Work remains to be completed, giving the next owner the opportunity to shape the final interiors, finishes, and landscaping to their own requirements.

For a buyer seeking an individual home, this is a chance to complete an estate whose scale, architecture and setting are already established.

An existing planning authorization for an additional villa may offer further possibilities within the grounds. Its validity, renewal requirements and permitted scope would need to be verified before proceeding. Subject to those checks and the necessary approvals, a separate residence could provide additional accommodation for family, guests or staff.

Privacy Within Easy Reach of the Riviera

Few properties combine this much private land with contemporary architecture, southern exposure, and sea views so close to Saint-Paul de Vence.

Known for its artistic heritage, galleries, restaurants and historic streets, the village offers a distinctive setting for life on the Côte d’Azur. Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport is about 15 minutes away, and Cannes is about 40 minutes away, depending on traffic.

L’Odyssée offers space, privacy, and the freedom to complete a substantial architectural project—creating a personal home in one of the Riviera’s most sought-after settings.
