Nestled within one of Saint-Raphaël’s most sought-after and secure residential areas, this exceptional villa combines generous interiors, contemporary elegance, and complete privacy. Originally built in 1985 and comprehensively renovated and extended in recent years, the property now offers 381 sqm of beautifully appointed living space on a landscaped plot of over 3,500 sqm. Ideally located just moments from the coastline, golf courses, marinas, and the vibrant centre of Saint-Raphaël, the villa enjoys easy access to the very best of the French Riviera
Extensively renovated and enlarged between 2023 and 2025, this impressive villa has been transformed into a contemporary family residence offering approximately 381 sqm of living space. Set within more than 3,500 sqm of private grounds, the property has been designed to maximise comfort, space, and functionality, with generous living areas that flow seamlessly towards the outdoor space. The villa comprises four spacious en-suite bedrooms, providing privacy and comfort for both residents and guests, while the high-quality renovation ensures a turnkey living experience throughout.
The outdoor areas are equally impressive, centred around a swimming pool and pool house that create an ideal setting for entertaining and enjoying the Mediterranean climate. A particularly rare feature for this sought-after neighbourhood is the property's garage of approximately 100 sqm, with an impressive ceiling height of around five metres, offering space for multiple vehicles, a collector’s car storage area, or additional leisure uses. Sold fully furnished and presented in excellent condition, the villa combines generous proportions, modern amenities, and exceptional practicality within a peaceful and secure setting.
“This is a rare opportunity to acquire a fully renovated Riviera villa of scale and quality, combining privacy, design, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living in a prime Saint-Raphaël setting.”
The investment appeal of this villa lies in its combination of scale, quality renovation, and prime positioning within Saint-Raphaël, one of the most established and consistently sought-after markets on the French Riviera. Large, fully renovated family villas with extensive land and modern amenities are increasingly rare in this segment, particularly within secure residential enclaves close to the coastline. This scarcity supports strong long-term value retention, while the property’s turnkey condition and high-end finishes make it immediately attractive to both domestic and international buyers.
In addition to capital appreciation potential, the villa also offers strong rental appeal in the high-end seasonal market, where demand remains robust throughout the Riviera’s extended tourist calendar. Proximity to beaches, golf courses, marinas, and key destinations such as Cannes, Saint-Tropez, and Nice enhances its desirability for short and medium-term luxury lets. Combined with its generous layout, extensive garage capacity, and fully furnished presentation, the property stands out as a versatile asset that can deliver both lifestyle enjoyment and solid investment performance over time.
Saint-Raphaël is one of the French Riviera’s most appealing coastal destinations, celebrated for its blend of Mediterranean charm, natural beauty, and year-round lifestyle. Fringed by sandy beaches, secluded coves, and a vibrant marina, the town offers an excellent selection of waterfront restaurants, cafés, boutiques, and cultural attractions. Residents can enjoy everything from sailing and paddleboarding to leisurely walks along the seafront promenade, while the lively town centre hosts markets, festivals, and events throughout the year.
The surrounding area is equally impressive, with the striking red landscapes of the Massif de l’Estérel providing a spectacular backdrop for hiking, cycling, and outdoor pursuits. Golf enthusiasts are well catered for with several renowned courses nearby, while day trips to Cannes, Antibes, Saint-Tropez, and Monaco are easily accessible. Combining the relaxed atmosphere of a seaside resort with the amenities of a thriving Riviera town, Saint-Raphaël offers an exceptional quality of life for both permanent residents and second-home owners.
