Family Property Plascassier Grasse

Grasse occupies a singular position in the cultural and economic geography of Provence, set in the hills above the Côte d’Azur at roughly 330 metres elevation. Known internationally as the world capital of perfume, the town has shaped the global fragrance industry for centuries, and its historic centre, with its narrow medieval lanes, Romanesque cathedral, and ochre-toned facades, carries that weight with understated confidence. The residential enclave of Plascassier, on the eastern edge of the commune, offers a quieter, more rural character while remaining firmly within the Grasse appellation.

Plascassier village has a small weekly market and a handful of local restaurants. The town of Grasse itself offers the covered Marché Provençal, the Musée International de la Parfumerie, and established perfume houses including Fragonard, Molinard, and Galimard. Valbonne and Sophia Antipolis are within ten minutes by car, providing additional dining and commercial options.

Cannes is approximately 20 kilometres south, reachable in around 25 minutes by car. Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport is roughly 35 kilometres away, typically 40 to 50 minutes by road, with direct connections to most major European cities and intercontinental routes. The A8 motorway is accessible via Mougins or Cannes, linking the area to Monaco in under an hour and to Aix-en-Provence in approximately 90 minutes.
