Особенности
Superb opportunity coming up for private auction in December, this incredible, historic home sits on the French Riviera, between Monaco and the Italian border.
Above the bay of Garavan, with sweeping views towards Menton and the Mediterranean, Les Colombières is a rare meeting of art, architecture and landscape. Created by Ferdinand Bac between 1919 and 1927, this extraordinary estate captures the romance of the Riviera, where a richly decorated Italianate villa sits within gardens conceived as a journey through the ancient Mediterranean.
Commissioned by Émile and Caroline-Octavie Ladan-Bockairy, the estate became the defining creation of Bac, an artist, writer and grandson of Jérôme Bonaparte. He designed everything from the façades and frescoes to the stained glass and garden pavilions. Jean Cocteau was among its guests, while Bac’s work inspired celebrated architect Luis Barragán. Classified as a Monument Historique in 1991, the house and gardens underwent an extensive restoration following their acquisition by Michael and Margaret Likierman in 1995.
Across 3.18 hectares, the terraced grounds reveal shaded pathways, intimate courtyards, ornamental ponds and pavilions, with the sea as a constant backdrop. Ancient olive trees, cypresses and Mediterranean planting frame the views, while pergolas surround a 15-metre swimming pool. Each turn offers another quiet corner, another glimpse of Bac’s imagination.
The 545 m² main residence is equally distinctive, with frescoed reception rooms, a music room and a dining room opening onto a sea-facing loggia. Accommodation includes six individually decorated bedrooms upstairs, a further bedroom and an independent guest apartment at garden level. A gym and 201 m² of outbuildings, including the gardener’s house originally built for Bac’s own use, complete this remarkable private estate.
Previously listed at €11.5 million, Les Colombières will be offered by private auction, opening on 8 December 2026, with viewings by appointment.
Participation requires registration through Home Hunts and identity and financial capacity checks; prospective buyers may also register an intention to offer before the auction.
A buyer’s premium applies, with details available on request, and furniture is negotiated separately.
Plans, technical diagnostics and information on the Monument Historique regime are available through Home Hunts.
