Single family villa Rue de la Batterie 38, Saint-Raphaël

Suffice to say that this kind of property on the French Riviera can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
Wherever you look, the clues are everywhere. Architectural beauties jump out at you.
Testimonies of a past that give the present an almost intact prestige: that of this exceptional villa, built during the Belle Epoque, is a residence full of history.
Suffice to say that this type of property, in this sector, can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
The owner at the time, Mr. Marchand, an engineer who participated in the creation of the Paris metro, was inspired by Art Nouveau curves to build his villa, typical of the Belle Epoque.
Balconies, profusions of carved decorations, ornament of plants and scrolls, brighten up the Sospel stone facade.
So, in 1907, an orangery on the seaside, connected by an underground passage, delivered its citrus fruits...
The layout of the facades, the many balconies, terraces and loggia, the profusion of sculpted decoration are clearly inspired by Art Nouveau. Influence by Hector Guimard, founder of this architectural style and decorator of metro stations and entrances isobvious.
If this property requires renovation work, it is certain that once completed, you will have a unique property!
