Built on a hillside by Jean Prouvé, a leading figure in 20th-century architecture and design, in collaboration with his son, the architect Claude Prouvé, this holiday home was designed for Dr Pierre Gauthier, husband of Françoise Prouvé, to provide a stunning setting for the family.

It is situated in the unspoilt hills above Sainte-Lucie de Porto-Vecchio, in the heart of one of the most sought-after areas of Southern Corsica,

More than just a residence, this house is a true architectural manifesto. True to the principles championed by Jean Prouvé, it emphasises intelligent construction, simplicity of line, the constant interplay between the interior and the landscape, and a way of living centred on light, functionality and contemplation.

Set in a commanding position, the house offers spectacular panoramic views of the Mediterranean, the Alta Rocca mountains and the gulf. Each window frames the landscape like a living painting, making nature an integral part of the architecture.

The property enjoys a wonderfully peaceful setting. An unspoilt beach is a ten-minute walk away, whilst the famous beaches of Sainte-Lucie and Pinarellu, with their crystal-clear waters, are just a few minutes’ drive away. Figari International Airport

Figari International Airport is approximately 45 minutes away.

We love: a rare property, ideal for collectors and architecture enthusiasts, where heritage, landscape and the Mediterranean way of life come together with remarkable harmony.
