Villa Margarida is a sleek modern house in the heart of Saint-Tropez, only a five-minute walk from the Place des Lices, and it is built around the pleasure of having the town on your doorstep. Across 210 square metres, the contemporary design is clean and confident, with three bedrooms, four bathrooms and a basement television room offering a quiet retreat from the sun.
What sets the villa apart is the balance of central location and private space. It sits within a thousand square metres of land, an unusually generous plot for somewhere so close to the centre, with a swimming pool at its heart that turns the garden into a genuine retreat. You can spend the morning by the water and be among the cafes and boutiques within minutes.
And it is that setting that makes the house. The centre of Saint-Tropez is where glamour and tradition blend in a vibrant, picturesque tangle of colourful alleys and bustling squares. Boutiques and art galleries line the narrow streets, the most avant-garde trends meeting local craft, while the Place des Lices, with its Provencal market and cafe terraces, remains the beating heart of the town. Come evening, the gourmet restaurants, bars and clubs take over.
With room for up to eight guests, Villa Margarida offers the ultimate Saint-Tropez lifestyle, a private, contemporary base steps from the action. Leave the car behind, and let the town become an extension of the house. A garage handles arrivals, and the garden stays a private world of its own just steps from the square.
