La Fleur du Cap

La Fleur du Cap, originally known as Villa Socoglio, is a house on the waterfront in Cap Ferrat, on the French Riviera.

The house was built in 1880 as Villa Socoglio by the son of an arms dealer.[1]

It was later home to the Duchess of Marlborough, King Leopold III, Charlie Chaplin and David Niven.[1]

The villa was used in the filming of the 1982 movie, Trail of the Pink Panther.[1]

Since at least 1999, it has been home to Ana Tzarev and Robert Chandler, the parents of New Zealand-born, billionaires Christopher Chandler and Richard Chandler who bought the house. [2]
