The former mansion of iconic actor Sean Connery, immortalized as James Bond, has been listed on the French real estate market for €23.5 million (around $26.4 million), according to real estate agency Savills.
Located in Nice, on the French Riviera, the property — formally known as Villa Roc Fleuri — is locally referred to as the “Bond Villa” in honor of the Scottish actor’s most famous role. Connery owned the residence during the 1970s and 1980s.
Built in 1930, the Art Deco-style villa offers more than 10,000 square feet (approximately 930 m²) of living space, with stunning original features preserved for nearly a century. Among the historic elements are mosaics, wood paneling, wrought-iron railings, ornate moldings, and even the original elevator cab.
Set in a privileged location at the foot of Mont Boron and next to the historic Château de l’Anglais, the house boasts panoramic views of the port of Nice and Cap d’Antibes. It includes five bedrooms and five bathrooms, with the primary suite occupying the entire top floor and featuring two private bathrooms.
Highlights of the property include:
- Multiple terraces with sea views;
- A rooftop deck with barbecue;
- Heated infinity pool with direct views of the Mediterranean;
- Spa area with gym;
- Separate caretaker’s apartment;
- Guesthouse divided into two apartments.
According to Savills, the current owners purchased the property in 2015 and carried out a full renovation: they modernized the heating and air-conditioning systems, remodeled the bathrooms, and redesigned the entire landscaping, including paths leading directly to the seaside rocks. 
The property was previously listed in 2020 for €30 million. The amount paid by the current owners was not disclosed.
Sean Connery also owned another notable property in France: the Domaine de Terre Blanche, a château in Tourrettes, purchased in 1979 and held for about 20 years. It was later sold to billionaire Dietmar Hopp, who transformed it into a luxury resort.
