Les Moulins du Villars - historical property in stunning location in a nature reserve
Les Moulins du Villars, an authentic renovated property, whose history is linked to Princess Grace Kelly.
Located in an exceptional natural environment near Nice, the estate offers 2.1 hectares of south-facing land in the shape of an amphitheatre, with breathtaking views and natural streams.
Nestled in a nature reserve, the property includes several varieties of plants: a plantation of olive trees allowing the production of organic extra virgin olive oil, citrus fruits and many other fruit trees, as well as more than 100 cypresses and two vegetable gardens.
The estate is self-sufficient in water thanks to its two springs which to date have never been dried up, as well as by the passage of the Latti River below the property.
The estate has been completely restored and tastefully decorated by renowned architects.
The main villa of 540 m² is an old olive oil mill dating from the 14th century, which was completely rebuilt in 2012. It is spread over four floors, connected by a lift, and includes two living rooms, a kitchen and a backyard-kitchen, a wine cellar, four family suites, two guest suites, a single bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, an office, a Bollywood-style TV room and a laundry room.
In addition to the main villa, the property has several other buildings, including Le Sanctuaire, a semi-restored ruin dating from Roman times which is used for parties, musical evenings and seminars. There's also Le Cabanon, a charming two-room guesthouse; and L'Inde, the guest suite, which offers luxury accommodation in a Rajasthani ambience.
The historic estate has 16 terraces with spectacular views over the village of Gilette, a pool house and a rebuilt 17x5m heated infinity pool with an OSPA drinking water quality filtration system. There is also a 67 m² fitness studio with panoramic views of the surrounding hills, a storage room, a tennis court and helipad.
A stone garage for four cars and a pavilion for gardeners is also available; a storage room for bicycles; a dovecote; a large greenhouse; an aviary and a tunnel leading you to La Source du Villars.
This unique haven of peace is equipped with luxurious amenities with a visible and navigable security camera system via remote access (iPhone, etc.).
