Villa La Baleine

Built on a hillside in Colombier, Villa La Baleine gazes out over the ocean as far as the eye can see, gilded each evening by the setting sun. On the upper level, the living room with orange and grey cushions leads to an equipped kitchen with a central island, then to a terrace where a table and a barbecue shelter beneath a Caribbean-style gazebo, close to a hammock; a second table welcomes meals and coffee breaks. On the main level, a vast space juts out over the hillside facing the sparkling waters. A few steps below, beside a grey stone wall, the private pool is lined with sun loungers, and a lounge beneath a pergola invites calm. The three bedrooms, with en-suite bathrooms, sleep six and all open onto a private terrace; one is set in a bungalow. A study with a library completes this warm home in tones of wood and orange.
