Villa Port Grimaud, Former Home of François Spoerry · ref. PG2

This villa was one of the first homes built in Port Grimaud, constructed by François Spoerry as his private residence, where he lived and worked while the Port Grimaud development was underway.

The villa is larger than most of the canal-side fisherman houses in Port Grimaud, with six bedrooms and four bathrooms. The property also includes an office, living room, dining room, and a large kitchen with a breakfast bar, alongside an outdoor dining area, a large outdoor terrace, a balcony, a roof terrace, a garage, and three moorings for boats up to 16 metres, one of which is used by the property's owner. There is also a staff area with two bedrooms and a staff bathroom. Painted in firebrick red with white trim, it is a landmark property within Port Grimaud.

Inside, the villa has been modernised, with Italian slate flooring throughout, and public areas dressed in white with contrasting black, notably in the handcrafted banister running from the ground floor to the second floor. Each bedroom and bathroom has its own distinct style, from clean-lined and modern to more decorative, while the ground-floor living areas are designed for indoor-outdoor living, opening onto the terrace and dining areas.

The property benefits from afternoon shade on its terrace. It is fitted with wifi throughout, and the terrace-side living room has a large flatscreen television connected to Xbox and Wii consoles, along with an audio and media system serving both indoor and outdoor speakers.
