Description
Contemporary architecture, this 125 m2 concrete house by architects Stéphane Fernandez and Ivry Serres rises from the heights of l'Estaque with an exceptional view over the bay of Marseille. Built in a dominant position facing the sea, this modern construction of cork and hollow brick blends perfectly into its terraced grounds, with pure, minimalist lines. On the first level, the living areas are flooded with light, thanks to the majestic long-window glazed section overlooking the sea and the islands. The view is spectacular and the light undulates according to the time of day. The colors covering the walls and ceiling are enveloping and respond perfectly to the cement tile floor. The hues are repeated in the kitchen, highlighting the antique still lifes. The kitchen opens onto a small open-air wooden patio, ideal for lunch. On the lower level, three identical bedrooms organized like cubes share an uncluttered bathroom in concrete and small mosaic tiles. From the outside, the triptych windows are like frames, showcasing nature and the view. A laundry room and office complete this level. The garden has been embellished with Mediterranean species and cacti worthy of the Eze hanging garden. A Japanese swimming pool fits in perfectly with the garden, which features century-old olive trees and large agaves. In the shade of the pine trees, a wooden terrace invites you to sit down and enjoy a meal overlooking the sea. Two parking spaces complete this exceptional property.
