Its own front door on a quiet old-town street — and a 6 m² front-row balcony over the ramparts, the Mediterranean and the Cap d’Antibes.
An 80 m² house on two levels behind its own front door on Rue du Bateau. On the ground floor, the hall, a WC, the laundry room and storage; upstairs, the 35 m² living room with its open kitchen, the spacious 6 m² balcony in the front row over the ramparts and the sea, two bedrooms with their own shower rooms, and a second WC close to both.
With its own front door on the street, the house lives with the independence of a real home: air conditioning in each room, fibre broadband with a professional Wi-Fi router and hotel-standard linens; a washing machine and a dryer in the laundry room; a dishwasher, oven and microwave in the kitchen.

The film
Inside Maison VistaMar
Our own photographs of the house, set in motion — the bay with snow still on the Alps, the balcony with nothing between it and the sea, and the rooms that share its light. No film crew came. How our films are made.
01
The living room
East light, sea beyond
Thirty-five square metres facing east, one floor up from the street, opening through double French doors onto the 6 m² balcony — in the front row over the ramparts and the sea, with the Cap d’Antibes on the horizon.
Original travertine underfoot; a three-seater sofa, an aviator armchair in aged leather, a white Tulip armchair and a coffee table. The designer dining table seats four.
A 42-inch television, fibre broadband, and Wi-Fi through a dedicated professional router.
02
The balcony
A front-row seat on the Mediterranean
A spacious six square metres facing east to south-east, in the front row over the ramparts and the sea, with the Cap d’Antibes on the horizon. A table with four chairs for breakfast and dinner outside.
03
The kitchen
Cooking within sight of the sea
Part of the 35 m² living space and open onto the living room, in clean contemporary lines: Veneta Cucine cabinetry, a white granite worktop and original travertine underfoot.
Siemens throughout — oven, microwave, a four-zone induction hob, dishwasher, and a fridge with a three-drawer freezer. For breakfast, a Smeg toaster, kettle and filter coffee machine, and a Nespresso for the first espresso of the day — and every utensil a dinner for four could ask for.
04
Master bedroom I
Old stone, deep calm
Fifteen square metres over Rue du Bateau, on the same floor as the living room, with a 160 × 200 cm bed made up with Black Label bedding and two built-in dressing areas. Original travertine underfoot, and the house’s old stone left exposed on the walls.
The en-suite shower room has a black granite basin, a teak cabinet and shelving, and a 140 × 90 cm walk-in shower set against the same old stone. It has no WC: a separate one is just outside, close to both bedrooms.
05
Master bedroom II
Discreet elegance
Twelve square metres over Rue du Bateau, with a 140 × 190 cm bed made up with Black Label bedding, a built-in dressing area and original travertine underfoot.
The en-suite shower room has a black granite basin, a teak cabinet and shelving, and a 90 × 90 cm walk-in shower set against the house’s exposed old stone. It has no WC: a separate one is just outside, close to both bedrooms.
06
The entrance
A private door on Rue du Bateau
The house has its own front door on Rue du Bateau, a single original stone step from the street. On the ground floor, a spacious hall with a WC, a laundry room with a washing machine and a dryer, and generous storage for suitcases; a staircase leads up to the living room, the balcony and the two bedrooms.
07
Location
Rue du Bateau, 70 m from the Picasso Museum

Why we chose this house
VistaMar seduced us with its front-row balcony — that feeling of being on the bow of a ship, the sea straight ahead. And its own entrance from a quiet street, which is a rare luxury inside the walls. It is the house we recommend to couples who want Antibes at their feet without giving up their independence.
