Provence-Alps-Cote d`Azur, Var, Flayosc, France

This exceptional architect-designed villa offers a rare blend of contemporary styling, traditional materials, and spectacular positioning. Originally conceived by renowned British architect George Butlin for his personal residence, the property was completed in 2014 by the current owners following his original vision—with meticulous attention to detail.

Set at the top of an expansive 8,200m2 plot and approached via electric gates and a private tarmac driveway with five elegant hairpin bends, this unique home commands outstanding 180 degree panoramic views to the South, East and West. It is surrounded by protected private land.

Carved directly into the hillside rock, the villa offers approximately 247m2 of living space in total, with each level benefiting from direct access to the gardens.

Upon arrival, the bold three-storey façade evokes a striking aesthetic, and as one moves through the landscaped grounds, the architecture softens into a more welcoming, modern expression. Extensive terraced gardens—expertly designed and planted by the esteemed Dalmasso company—feature stone retaining walls, a variety of mature planting areas, automatic irrigation, and a blend of lawn, natural rock, lighted pathways and woodland, plus the beautiful infinity pool area with separate jacuzzi, taking in those views!
