On a cliffside plot in the breathtaking port of Nice is ‘Château de l'Anglais’, a luxurious Belle Époque house once owned by Scottish actor Sean Connery.
Connery, best known for his portrayal of Agent 007, stayed there with his wife Micheline Roquebrune, a painter from the region whom he met in the 1970s. As the actor approaches his 90th birthday, the couple have shared a peaceful retirement together.
The house itself is set on a hillside over six floors and served by a lift. It offers a breathtaking view of the Baie des Anges and the port of Nice.
