LA BELLE EPOGUE

Between Nice and Monaco on the Mediterranean coast, the Greek Villa Kerylos remains a standout as one of the most spectacular properties on earth! Built between 1902 and 1908, it is a stunning and faithful reconstruction of a luxurious Greek noble house from the 2nd century B.C.

In this tribute to Greek civilization, the owner Theodore Reinach, an archaeologist, and Emmanuel Potremoli, the architect, collaborated to create an original interpretation in Beaulieu-sur-Mer. I never tire of looking at the exquisite images rife with decadent, yet elegant details, epitomizing the best of La Belle Epogue.

  1. This is how it should be. Thank you so much for the inspiration. One day I will also build in the Ancient way.
