Under the shimmering azure sun, in the hushed heights of the Imperial Park, a historic residence is about to change hands. The villa "Les Lucioles," a gem of Belle Époque elegance with its distinct Haussmannian charm, has just hit the market. Its price? 4.35 million euros. But more than the numbers, it's the story, the character, and the prestige of this centenary building that captivate.

Built in 1912 at the request of Édouard Soulas, a wealthy meat trader who returned rich from Argentina, this house has been continually accumulating layers of nobility and refinement. In 1924, it passed into the hands of Jules Vanderpol, who entrusted its transformation to the architect duo Dalmas father and son – a name that still resonates in the architectural DNA of Nice. The result? A villa full of distinction, featuring regional Art Deco lines, where elegance never ages.

An exceptional 17-room residence
Behind its discreet façade lies a spacious 366 m² with no less than 17 rooms: period moldings, a restored fireplace, mosaics, and generous volumes... It feels like a movie set, somewhere between To Catch a Thief and Call Me by Your Name. The kitchen, with Mediterranean flair, brilliantly mixes ceramics and noble materials. Upstairs, there's a master suite of 50 m², two bedrooms—one with a private terrace—a rooftop, a light-filled laundry room, an office, and even an independent studio. Outside, the picture is completed with a landscaped garden of 740 m², a sleek swimming pool, and a garage to keep your treasures safe.I'm sorry, but it seems like the text you provided is incomplete.
