Outdoors
The heart of the home and where you will no doubt spend most of your time is the spacious covered outdoor patio. It is located just outside the dining and living room and it features a massive outdoor fireplace, a long bar, a sink, a barbeque with an adjustable grill, two small refrigerators, and a freezer. The entire household can dine in this lovely spot. You will be drawn to this space all day, from enjoying a coffee in the morning sun to eating dinner by the light of the pool in the evening.
The large saltwater pool is just next to the outdoor patio area. There are chaise lounges arranged around the pool, with plenty of seating for all, and an outdoor couch and lounge chairs sheltered by a large central umbrella – the perfect spot to gather for an apéritif or to relax with a book. There is an outdoor shower nearby to rinse off before or after swimming. The lawn is big enough to kick around a soccer ball or enjoy a game of badminton or frisbee. On the next level below the pool is a private tennis clay court where you can play overlooking the Mediterranean. Alternatively, you can enjoy a ping pong tournament in the courtyard behind the patio or play a game of pétanque on the court next to the central kitchen. Pool toys and equipment such as tennis rackets are provided.
The house was designed and oriented to take advantage of the sun all day long and to provide views of the Mediterranean from the terraces, from many rooms, and from the pool/garden.
