At first glance, it seemed like a straightforward extension project for a caretaker’s villa. However, complications arose as the property was classified as remarkable due to the registration of the central estate in the municipal cultural heritage inventory. This elevated the project’s complexity, necessitating a design that harmonized with the lush palm tree garden and respected the exceptional seaside location.
The single-story house features a roof terrace, partly accessible via an external staircase, offering breathtaking Mediterranean Sea views. The rounded cantilevered terrace, reminiscent of the early 20th-century villa style, serves as the architectural link connecting the project to the master house, much like the bow of a boat above the lush vegetation of the garden’s agapanthus.
The choice of materials remains intentionally understated: stainless steel and glass railings, wood and terracotta terrace coverings, and crushed brick to mimic the color of tiled roofs. The white and light pink hues echo those of the main villa, nestling this exquisite gem within the garden’s serene ambiance..
