X-CHEN is a sprawling property tucked away inside a private, enclosed, protected haven of greenery a stone’s throw from the famous city of cinema that is Cannes and Sophia- Antipolis, Europe’s largest science and technology park.

Beyond the security gate lies the approach leading up to the villa, featuring a reception courtyard that combines the beginning of the property, the generous carpark and a central sculptural fountain. The entrance is immediately identifiable and is located at the centre of the building. Its large pivoted door opens onto a hall that features a space dedicated to well-being that could also be turned into a private apartment, as well as several living spaces including a large open-plan kitchen and laundry room with direct access to the grounds, a spacious dining room, a reception room and a living room with designer fireplace.

The entire area opens onto the landscaped garden that is divided into several areas; a lounge and dining terrace with a jacuzzi, a huge infinity pool of 15m with a pool house sheltering a summer kitchen, and a greenery park.

The main hall is more discreet, leading on to the master apartment comprising a living room with office, a large walk-in closet, a bedroom and a large bathroom. Once again, all of these main areas overlook the park and pool.

A central staircase leads up from the entrance hall to the first floor, that offers three suites, including a second Master bedroom, facing out onto the park and swimming-pool area, with two of them extended through to outdoor terraces park. The hallways and corridors linking these areas are broken up by an open-plan sitting room.

The grounds act as an invitation to pamper and indulge in unspoilt surroundings that unfurl from within the heart of a vast landscaped park: a long infinity pool facing the terraces that have been designed to extend the indoor areas on the ground floor, and the pool house that overlooks the swimming-pool, providing spectacular views of the villa and the mountains.

The X-CHEN’s architectural concept revolves around a contemporary take on typical Provençal style, simplifying the aesthetics to open up indoor areas to their natural surroundings.
