Twenty minutes away from Porto-Vecchio, deep in the gorgeous private estate of Punta d’Araso lies a 350sqm villa. Says the Agence Immobilière du Golfe: “This Provence-style house has a breathtaking view on the sea”. Partly built with vintage local stones, it includes a vast reception area with a dining room and a lounge, a fully equipped kitchen, an airconditioned Master bedroom, three additional rooms and as many shower rooms, two more living rooms and a big dorm upstairs. The house, with its many terraces, lies at the heart of a delightful 9,000sqm Mediterranean garden dotted with boulders, centenarian olive trees, groves and fig trees. In the park, an 18m-long overflow pool lays with a state-of-the-art pool house (featuring a lounge, a dining room, an outdoor kitchen, a restroom). A helicopter landing area provides a direct access to a beach of fine sand with mooring facilities, a few minutes away from nearby Saint-Cyprien Bay. The house also allows for a 300 sq m extension, as well as a 400sqm outbuilding in this Corsican Saint-Tropez.
