On the hills above Rayol-Canadel-sur-Mer, this contemporary Provençal villa opens to the Mediterranean with a sea view that changes with every hour of the day. Across 219.29 m² of elegantly planned living space, four bedrooms and generous reception areas flow naturally out to wide natural-stone terraces, a 45.70 m² infinity pool and landscaped grounds. Designed for effortless Riviera living, it pairs light-filled interiors with refined finishes, home automation and reversible heat-pump comfort. A rare balance of privacy, calm and immediate access to the coastline and village life.

A Riviera rhythm, framed by pines and open sky
In Rayol-Canadel-sur-Mer, days begin softly: the hush before the heat, the scent of Mediterranean planting carried on the breeze, and the first shimmer of light on the bay. Set on the hillside above Canadel, this newly built villa captures that unmistakable Cô te d&rsquo Azur rhythm&mdash calm, sunlit, and deeply connected to the landscape&mdash while keeping you close to the village and the sea below.
The setting feels intentionally discreet. A small, confidential collection of just seven new villas is arranged in gentle steps that echo the area&rsquo s traditional restanques, with local stone and warm, natural tones grounding the architecture in its Provenç al context. From here, the coastline is part of everyday life: beaches, coves and the coastal road lie within easy reach, while the Massif des Maures brings a green, wooded backdrop behind you.
Space that flows, light that lingers
Villa Verna offers 219.29 m² of thoughtfully designed living space across two levels, balancing generous communal areas with private, restorative bedroom suites. The interior mood is clean, warm and contemporary&mdash designed to feel effortless in summer and quietly comfortable through the cooler months.
The ground floor: a home that opens to the terrace
You arrive into a proper entrance hall (3.57 m² )&mdash a small detail, but one that immediately sets the tone for a house built for real life. Close by, a guest Wc (2.94 m² ) keeps entertaining practical and discreet. From here, the villa draws you into its main living spaces: a generous kitchen / dining area of 65.35 m² , designed as the social heart of the home.
The kitchen sits comfortably within the open plan, so whoever is cooking remains part of the conversation. A dedicated cellar / pantry (5.40 m² ) adds welcome storage, keeping the main space beautifully uncluttered&mdash ideal for long weekends that turn into full summers, or for the kind of hosting that the Riviera inspires.
Alongside, a separate living room (20.45 m² ) offers a more intimate atmosphere&mdash perfect for a quieter evening, a film after the beach, or simply a shaded retreat at the warmest hour of the day. Throughout this level, large openings are designed to connect inside and out, so the terrace becomes an extension of your living space.
Also on the ground floor, Bedroom 1 (12.29 m² ) forms a serene suite with a dressing room (9.55 m² ) and a bathroom (7.06 m² ). It&Rsquo S a layout that works beautifully for year-round living, giving owners a private retreat on the main level while guests and family occupy the upper floor.
The first floor: privacy, flexibility, and a second lounge
Upstairs, the villa continues with an easy sense of space. A upper lounge (18.88 m² ) creates a versatile second living area&mdash ideal as a reading room, a home office, or a relaxed Tv space when the house is full. Three further bedrooms are arranged for comfort and calm: Bedroom 2 (14.90 m² ), Bedroom 3 (15.93 m² ) and Bedroom 4 (15.93 m² ).
Two shower rooms&mdash Shower room 1 (4.55 m² ) and Shower room 2 (3.67 m² )&mdash serve the floor, complemented by a second Wc (1.75 m² ) and a dedicated laundry room (3.30 m² ). The circulation is comfortable, with a hallway / landing of 6.82 m² keeping the layout practical and unhurried.
Outside, life expands: terraces, pool, and sea view
This is a villa designed for outdoor living as much as indoor comfort. The experience begins with the main natural-stone terrace of 124.42 m² , an expansive platform for summer dining, morning coffee, and evenings that stretch long after sunset. From here, the infinity pool becomes the visual and emotional centre of the home&mdash an elegant 45.70 m² statement that draws the eye outward to the Mediterranean beyond.
The land totals 871.00 m² , offering a sense of breathing space around the house. The plan notes a garden area of 481 m² , while the wider parcel frames the villa with greenery&mdash an intimate Mediterranean setting designed to sit naturally within the hillside landscape. A separate annexe (9.74 m² ) accommodates technical elements linked to the pool, keeping the terrace environment clean and calm.
Upstairs, a further terrace of 46.91 m² extends the living experience into the open air once again. It&Rsquo S the perfect place for a quiet moment with a book, a late-afternoon drink as the light softens, or simply to enjoy the sea view in greater privacy.
Architecture with Provenç al roots, contemporary clarity
The villa sits within an architectural approach that respects the hillside and the region&rsquo s building vocabulary&mdash local stone restanques, light ochre tones, and refined lines that keep the focus on the landscape. Details such as transparent railings, pergola-style shading and natural textures bring a relaxed sophistication to the overall design.
The roof is conceived as a vegetated roof (toiture vé gé talisé e), aligning with the development&rsquo s Mediterranean planting approach and reinforcing the discreet, landscape-led feel of the address.
Comfort and finishes designed for modern Riviera living
Beyond the atmosphere, the specifications are carefully chosen for daily ease and long-term comfort. The villa benefits from a reversible heat pump with underfloor diffusion, delivering gentle warmth in winter and cooling comfort in summer. A home automation system and videophone add contemporary convenience, while electrically operated roller shutters and quality joinery in wood and/or coloured aluminium support security and energy performance.
Interiors are finished with a calm, modern palette: tiling on the ground floor and solid oak parquet upstairs (excluding upstairs wet rooms), fitted cupboards, and bathrooms/shower rooms equipped with washbasins, a Led mirror and heated towel rails. The entrance door is specified as burglar-resistant with a 5-point security lock, a reassuring detail for a home intended to be enjoyed in every season.
Parking and practical arrivals
A covered parking space of 27.18 m² is attached to the villa, offering sheltered, convenient access. The wider setting also includes collective additional parking spaces at the entrance of the private domain&mdash useful when friends arrive for long lunches and unplanned evenings.
Rayol-Canadel-sur-Mer: authenticity by the sea
Rayol-Canadel-sur-Mer is the kind of Var village that rewards those who prefer calm to commotion&mdash without ever feeling isolated. The coastline here is famously sculpted, a rhythm of capes, coves and bays sheltering fine sandy beaches, while inland the Massif des Maures brings cork oaks, heather and mimosas that perfume the air in season.
The village is also home to the renowned Domaine du Rayol and its Jardin des Mé diterrané es, a protected landscape inviting year-round walks through Mediterranean ecosystems. In warmer months, the Provenç al market brings colour and local flavour to Friday mornings, while restaurants and daily essentials remain within easy reach.
Connected, yet beautifully unhurried
For travel and day-to-day convenience, the wider region is remarkably accessible. By car, you are approximately 11 minutes from Cavalaire-sur-Mer, 18 minutes from Le Lavandou and its market, and around 35 minutes from Saint-Tropez. Toulon&Ndash HyÈ Res Airport is about 40 minutes away, and Toulon&rsquo s Tgv station is around 1 hour by road. Nice Cô te d&rsquo Azur Airport is approximately 1h50, with Monaco around 2h17.
In short, Villa Verna offers a composed blend of privacy, contemporary comfort and sea-view living&mdash set within one of the Cô te d&rsquo Azur&rsquo s most authentically serene coastal villages.
