Villa La Sauvagette — A 1920s Belle Époque Legacy

Built in the 1920s, Villa La Sauvagette is part of the golden age of the Cap d’Antibes, when this discreet peninsula became one of the most sought-after retreats for an international elite. Hidden behind lush gardens, the great villas of the Cap were designed for privacy, elegance, and the Mediterranean art of living.

The Cap d’Antibes owes much of its enduring prestige to its strong American influence in the early 20th century. Writers, artists, and patrons from the United States helped shape its cosmopolitan spirit—most notably F. Scott Fitzgerald, whose time on the Riviera

contributed to the Cap’s legendary status. Alongside iconic landmarks such as the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc, these villas became symbols of refined European glamour infused with American freedom.

The history of Villa La Sauvagette is referenced in Les secrets des villas du Cap d’Antibes by Nathalie Aguado, a carefully researched work highlighting the remarkable heritage of the Cap’s historic estates.

Fully renovated today with high-end contemporary finishes, Villa La Sauvagette preserves its original soul while offering modern luxury—an exceptional opportunity to own a true piece of the Cap d’Antibes’ timeless heritage.
