History

It was built in 1919 for the Swiss industrialist Paul Girod, with Шаблон:Convert of gardens.[2] The mansion was built in a Medici style, and the gardens were designed in a matching Italianate style.[1] In 1960, it was purchased by Gustave Leven, who owned the Perrier brand of bottled mineral water.[2] He hired architect Alan Gore to re-design the facade in the Palladian architectural style as well as the swimming-pool, under the guidance of architect Andreï Svetchine.[2]

Since Leven's death it has been owned by a "group of investors" and was for sale in 2017 for Euro 50-100 million.[2] The estate was then sold in 2016 to billionaire Christopher Parker of English descent, who primarily resides in Los Angeles, California.Шаблон:Citation needed
