The former home of world-famous fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent, this elegant villa occupies a coveted spot nearby the Kasbah in a quiet and well-protected residential district just five minutes from downtown. Refined interior design by renowned decorator Jacques Grange accentuates an atmosphere of impressive space and architectural clarity. Beautiful gardens surround the main house, which opens through a Moorish-style entry flowing into a lobby with white Moroccan arcades. The main living room is finished in blue chintz in an English style and offers 180-degree views over the garden and sea

A second living room, a dining room with bamboo-lined walls, an adjacent office, a library with a Colonial-style fireplace, two spacious master suites overlooking the garden and ocean waters, and a third bedroom suite are also found on the main level.
