P
erched above the silky sands of
Saint-Tropez’s Pampelonne beach, this
modern villa is the perfect sanctuary
from which to dip into the local razzmatazz.
At the heart of Villa Zebrano are a terrace
and pool, with views across the sparkling
sea below. Glass doors open on to the terrace
from a spacious
combined living
and dining room.
The main villa
has two large
master bedrooms
which allow light
to flow in through
floor-to-ceiling
windows. A stone
walkway leads
to a further four
standalone guest
rooms: with a modern feel, all four have
indoor bathrooms and outdoor showers.
“My favourite feature of the property is the
panoramic sea views from every single
room,” says Beauchamp Estates’ sales
agent Mirka Mikleticova.
The property has a small independent
suite for staf or a gardener to help maintain
the landscaped terraces. There is also a fitted
kitchen and a television room.
All the amenities of Saint-Tropez are just
a short drive away and the villa is within
walking distance of Pampelonne beach, a
hangout for celebrities and sun-seekers since
the 1950s. This stretch is also home to Saint-
Tropez’s first beach club – Club 55. Once afavouritestop-offorBridgetBardot,ithasn’tlostitstouch,
