Perched on a rocky promontory in Beaulieu-sur-Mer near Nice, this unique Belle Époque villa was built between 1902 and 1908 by archaeologist Théodore Reinach and architect Emmanuel Pontremoli. It is an exquisite tribute to ancient Greece, recreating a luxurious 2nd-century BC Delian noble home. Highlights include a peristyle courtyard with Carrara marble columns, mythological frescoes, custom bronze furniture, and panoramic sea views.
