The owner of this contemporary designer villa has spent a lot of time, energy and care to create an exquisite home.

The property offers high quality materials throughout, has town gas with an underfloor heating system and reversible air-conditioning in the master bedroom.

A privileged home where time gets forgotten admiring the spectacular views and daily changing nature.

This unique open plan villa, which offers spacious bright rooms, is built over 2 levels and each level offers disabled access.

Almost every room on both floors opens to the large terraces or to the garden and brings the outside and inside living style together.

The kitchen on the bottom floor serves as a comfortable swimming pool kitchen and living room. The swimming pool is 17 x 4m and is surrounded by other terraces.

All the terraces are in exotic wood and are large enough to enjoy the outdoor life. There is a huge covered terrace in front of the kitchen connecting via a staircase to all the other terraces and the pool area as well as the gardens on each level.

Placed between an immense deep blue sky, a beautiful Mediterranean garden with cypresses and olive trees and the spectacular scenery of 180 degrees, this luxury property is simply exceptional.

France Property Buying Guide

1. Signing the Agreement (Compris)

On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner.

The next step, once you are in agreement, is to sign the preliminary contract (Compromis de Vente). This is a legal document and after ten days will be binding on both parties. Rules change frequently in France and it is best to consult with your notary about when this period starts. Generally the compris will be signed in France with the Agent.

Variants can be included in the compris, for example an Acte (clause) can be added if the name or names to go on the title deed have not been finalised. If a mortgage will be required to purchase the property, the details for this, including the name of the mortgage company, must be on the compris.

2. Paying the Deposit

Generally the deposit will be 10% of the agreed purchase price. This will normally be paid to the notaire. There are exceptions to this, if the agent holds a carte professionelle, is bonded and fully registered then you may pay them, but do not hand over the deposit to anyone else. If for some reason the purchase does not go through, for example, if you write to the notaire and the agent that you do not wish to go continue with the purchase before the contract is binding (within seven days of signing the compris), then your deposit would be repaid. This would also apply if a condition had not been met, or the mayor or S.A.F.E.R. (a government agency that has the right of first purchase on most rural property that comes onto the market in France) could oblige the purchaser to give way. If you decide after the seven days 'cooling off' period that you do not wish to complete the purchase and pull out of the sale you would lose your deposit. If however the vendor pulls out of the sale then you will receive your deposit back plus the same amount from the vendor.

3. On Completion

Generally it will take around two or three months to complete the purchase.

During this time the balance of the purchase money must be paid into the account of the notaire, this must be done well ahead of the completion date. The notaire will prepare the documents, check that the deed of sale (Acte de Vente) is in order and have the legal title ready to be signed over. It is possible to have someone sign on your behalf if you give them power of attorney. An interpreter may be of use at this point if your French is not very good and many Notaires will suggest (or insist) that an interpreter is with you.
