Inside Sean Connery’s former luxury seafront villa in Nice as it goes on sale for £27million 

Legendary James Bond actor Sean Connery’s former villa is on the market for £27 million (€30 million). 

The luxurious seafront property which was long-owned by the 007 actor and located in the green hills of the Cap de Nice, boasts views over the Port of Nice on the French Riviera. 

The Villa Le Roc Fleuri, which features six floors and eight bedrooms which look out over the Mediterranean sea, is on sale through the Knight Frank Cap Ferrat estate agency. 

Scottish actor Connery owned the villa with his second wife, Micheline Roquebrune, who was originally from the region. The James Bond star, who currently lives in the Bahamas with his wife, used to reside in the Cap de Nice mansion and locals still refer to it as ‘Sean Connery’s house’. 

The spacious property has 1000 m² of living space and is situation on landscaped grounds that stretch to 5000 m².  

In the elegant entrance hall are an Belle Epoque style staircase and an elevator, decorated with flowers and wrought iron arabesques.

The villa is complete with a spa and gym, which also features plunging views of the sea, and an outdoor infinity pool built into the hollow of a rock. 

The property, which is only 30 minutes from Monaco and Cannes, is the perfect retreat for lovers of elegance.
