EXCLUSIVE / SOLE AGENT - Mission Riviera Prestige Real Estate An exceptional, 6 bedroomed mansion with large garden, pool and guest annexe, situated on the edge of Nice (in the hills of Fabron) in a quiet residential district, with views of the Alpine foothills. Renovated to a high standard, and with a historical connection, this converted convent offers exceptional accommodation, and is ready for immediate occupation. The district of Nice known as Fabron Supérieur is a desirable, residential district situated on the northern edge of the city, with extensive views of the green hills beyond the city limits. Access to the beaches of Nice and the centre of town is easy, a straight line down the hill leading to the famous Promenade des Anglais in around 10 minutes by car. Fabron particularly this part, is a quiet, well-healed quartier, popular with professionals, families and business people based in Nice and looking for a peaceful location . Near the famous medical centre of L'Archet, and with a local primary school within walking distance, (and a good choice of schools at all levels within the district) just 15 minutes from Nice airport and with easy access to the A8 motorway, the villa La Halte de la Reine is perfectly situated and ideally appointed for a large family, or for those seeking the space for guests and entertaining or indeed additional potential B+B possibilities. La Halte de la Reine is a beautiful property of considerable size and with very flexible accommodation. Over the centuries, the property has seen many changes in the world around it, and indeed within its own walls, once a convent, the property has also been an auberge, deriving its name from legend. It is said that Queen Victoria and her entourage stopped at the auberge on one of her habitual journeys between her properties on the Isle of Wight or London and her favourite city Nice. Indeed, Nice's famous Promenade des Anglais was named after Victoria's habit of leisurely strolls along the azur water's edge, during her winter sejours. Built within its own considerable grounds, the property boasts six large bedrooms, with 4 bathrooms, a huge living/dining room, a study, separate independent staff accommodation, garaging and a beautiful pool, as well as many terraces and ornate, planted gardens and lawns. From the road, La Halte de la Reine presents a deceptively modest façade, with only a few subtle hints at the hidden gem behind an ornate sundial, pretty ironwork and large entrance gates. Laid out over three levels, this imposing building just oozes solidity, and it doesn't take much imagination to imagine its previous lives. Once inside the walls, the property is private and secure, with a main entrance door, with its custom ironwork, leading to the spacious hallway. From the hall, turning left leads to the very large but homely, split level living space, with its triple aspect outlook and imposing stone fireplace. From the dining area, a fabulous picture window gives a splendid view over the hills behind Nice, with beautiful sunsets visible all year round. This beautifully appointed main living area is perfectly in keeping with the rest of the house large enough for a big family to enjoy plenty of space, or for guests and entertaining in style. Turning right from the entrance hall there are two rooms the first is a small office/study room with French doors leading out onto the terrace, and the second is the family kitchen. The kitchen in a property of this standing has to feel like the centre of the house, and this beautiful room does not disappoint. The kitchen is big enough to be divided into two main areas the main food prep and storage area, with its fitted kitchen providing ample storage space and worktops, has a beautiful picture window over the sink giving fabulous, uninterrupted views over the distant hills. The other part of the room provides for the traditional family table, with plenty of space to relax and socialise. There
