Historisches Wahrzeichen Mit Kunstgalerie Und Panoramaterrasse — Saint Paul De Vence

In the heart of the legendary village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence, on the iconic Place de la Grande Fontaine, this exceptional aristocratic building embodies the artistic and historic soul of one of the French Riviera’s most celebrated destinations.

Overlooking the square with a south-facing façade and large storefront windows, the property enjoys remarkable commercial exposure. According to the local municipality, more than 2.4 million visitors pass this prestigious address every year, placing it at the center of the village’s cultural life.

For more than two decades, the building hosted the renowned Galerie Golconda, an international reference in archaeology and ancient art. Collectors, art enthusiasts, financiers and prominent families from around the world gathered here, making it a must-visit destination in Saint-Paul alongside the celebrated Fondation Maeght and the legendary La Colombe d’Or.

This rare heritage property, one of only a few aristocratic buildings of its kind in the village, has preserved its remarkable historic character: 17th-century doors, exposed stone walls, antique beams, 19th-century marble sinks, monumental fireplaces and traditional terracotta roof tiles. Local tradition even suggests that Louis XIV once dined here on the first floor.

Spread over three floors plus the ground level, the building offers approximately 288 m² of space and a highly adaptable layout. The different units can be connected through a traditional “terre-ciel” staircase, allowing for a unified private residence, a prestigious gallery or a mixed residential and cultural project.

The property currently comprises:

Ground-floor art gallery / commercial space of 62.10 m² including an exhibition room, a crypt, hallway and storage area with restroom.

First-floor apartment connected to the gallery yet with its own entrance, approximately 88 m² with generous volumes.

A charming duplex apartment of approximately 39 m² with a small terrace.

A large duplex apartment of nearly 100 m² extended by a 28 m² terrace offering panoramic views over the sea, hills and countryside surrounding Saint-Paul.

Just steps from the village’s renowned galleries, restaurants and historic streets, this unique property combines history, exceptional location and rare potential.

A truly exceptional heritage opportunity in one of the most iconic villages on the French Riviera.
