Perched on a hilltop in the prestigious private Domaine des Vautes, just outside Montpellier, Villa Pop-corn is a striking white contemporary villa offering 290 m² of living space on a 3,000 m² landscaped garden. With uninterrupted views over the rolling Mediterranean countryside, this architect-designed home embodies the essence of the modern Languedoc lifestyle — refined, serene, and deeply connected to nature.
From the moment you enter, Villa Popcorn reveals its magic: a vast open living area with 2.8m high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling bay windows on three sides. The panoramic views of the surrounding hills become an integral part of the interior, and the space opens seamlessly onto a sun-drenched, south-facing terrace that wraps around the villa. The terrace is fully furnished with outdoor lounges and sunbeds, perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
The sleek open kitchen is fully equipped with high-end appliances and a central island, ideal for convivial meals. A large bay window connects the kitchen to a covered outdoor dining terrace complete with plancha, barbecue, and a table overlooking the pool and countryside, perfect for al fresco dinners.
The 6x4m swimming pool (1.75 m depth) features an infinity edge and counter-current swimming system, set against the breathtaking backdrop of nature. Whether you’re swimming laps or enjoying a glass of wine on the terrace, this pool area is a haven of peace and privacy.
The villa offers 4 spacious comfortable and stylish double bedrooms, all with private bathrooms:
The master suite, located on the east side of the house, features a king-size bed, en-suite bathroom with bath and shower, dressing room, and access to a private terrace with sweeping views.
On the west wing, three additional double bedrooms each have their own private shower room and direct access to the south-facing terrace.
A separate toilet in the corridor brings the total number of toilets to three.
Villa Popcorn belongs to a renowned international artist, and many of his original paintings and sculptures adorn the space, giving the home a unique creative energy. If preferred, artworks can be stored away during your stay. The artist’s studio, located in the basement, remains closed during rentals.
Villa Pop-corn is more than a holiday home , it’s a Mediterranean retreat where art, nature, and comfort meet.
Note:
A cat lives on-site, independent and fed via an automatic dispenser (no attention required from guests).
