Located within a small and peaceful estate, this historic 18th-century monastery sits harmoniously on a beautiful plot of approximately 1.1 hectares.

An impressive inner courtyard, lined with magnificent arcades, leads to the historic main entrance, dating back to 1848, and opens into the heart of this exceptional 386 m² property.

A spacious entrance hall with exposed wooden beams flows into an elegant living room, which offers direct access to a generous master suite.
This serene retreat includes a large private study and a charming balcony with spectacular panoramic views.
A second, equally elegant bedroom features a walk-in shower and a freestanding Victorian bathtub – perfect for peaceful moments of relaxation.

Upstairs are two further suites, along with the characterful tower, which also includes its own private shower room.
From here, one enjoys breathtaking views over the village of Châteauneuf-de-Grasse, the rolling hills of the hinterland, and all the way to the Bay of Mandelieu.

On the garden level, the Provençal kitchen – with its own separate entrance and dating from 1784 – opens onto a bright dining room that leads out to a spacious terrace.
A cosy sitting room with a fireplace completes this inviting living space.

The main living room, featuring a majestic stone fireplace and elegant arched windows, creates a truly unique atmosphere, where the property’s authentic charm is fully expressed.
A second terrace, as well as a separate suite – ideal for staff or guests – are also located on this level.

The beautifully landscaped grounds feature a large heated pool (12 × 6 m), a pool house, and an Argentine-style barbecue area with a traditional pizza oven.
A spacious terrace in natural stone completes this Mediterranean setting – ideal for summer evenings with family and friends.

Sport lovers will appreciate a separate, ultra-modern fitness area, a volleyball court, and a pétanque ground.

Pathways bordered with blooming lavender, roses, and agapanthus weave through the gardens, which are surrounded by cypress trees and a beautifully maintained olive grove.
Every corner of this estate radiates peace and harmony, echoing the spirit of the former monastery !

Just 20 km from Nice, and in close proximity to prestigious golf courses, renowned restaurants, and charming boutiques, this rare property is sure to delight lovers of historic architecture and timeless authenticity.

Châteauneuf-de-Grasse is a medieval hilltop village in the Alpes-Maritimes, set in the pre-Alpine foothills roughly 20 kilometres northwest of Nice and 12 kilometres from Grasse. The village retains its historic core of stone houses, narrow lanes, and a Romanesque church, with the surrounding landscape defined by terraced olive groves, lavender fields, and views that extend south toward the Côte d’Azur coastline. It occupies a distinct position between the glamour of the coast and the quieter rhythms of the Provençal interior.

Daily life centres on the village square and the weekly market in nearby Valbonne, a 10-minute drive away. Grasse, the world capital of perfume, is 15 minutes by car. The Michelin-starred restaurant Bastide Saint-Antoine in Grasse is a regular destination for residents. Golf courses at Opio Valbonne and Royal Mougins are within 15 minutes.

Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport is approximately 30 minutes by car via the A8 motorway, offering direct connections to most major European cities and intercontinental routes. Cannes is reachable in around 25 minutes by car. The TGV station in Nice connects to Paris in roughly 5 hours 30 minutes, and Sophia Antipolis, one of Europe’s largest technology parks, is a 15-minute drive, making this location practical for both leisure and professional use.
