Dixon Jones Architects - Londen.
Within one hour of Nice and Toulon Airports, Villa Jones is above the village of Bargemon in the Haut Var situated 600 metres above sea level. South facing, the villa is on two levels and sleeps 8 people in 4 double bedrooms, one with bathroom en suite and three with showers en suite. The surrounding landscape of olive groves and woodland has spectacular views southward towards the Mediterranean and north to the Col du Bel Homme. The villa offers total privacy.
The house - 300m2 - is long in plan and narrow in section, giving all rooms the benefit of the view and generous cross ventilation. With its thick walls the house is comfortably insulated in both summer and winter. Living areas inside and outside are spacious: large living, dining, kitchen and double height loggia (with barbeque), 60 metre long pergola and 14 metre pool with shower. The pool can be totally enclosed and protected by 'afnor' approved fencing which is also easily removed and stowed away (pool photos show without fence).
