Set amid terraced Mediterranean gardens in Grasse, this beautifully renovated stone bastide combines Provençal charm with refined interiors and contemporary comfort. Open views across the surrounding hills, mature trees and generous outdoor living spaces create a peaceful setting with a wonderful sense of privacy. Carefully chosen materials and thoughtful detailing give the home its distinctive character. Terracotta floors, elegant wall panelling and a sculpted fireplace bring warmth to the spacious living and dining room, where high ceilings and tall French doors enhance the natural light. Opening directly onto a heated covered terrace, this inviting space lends itself equally to relaxed afternoons and alfresco entertaining. A separate TV room offers a more intimate setting, while the beautifully appointed kitchen complements the home’s traditional aesthetic. Five en-suite bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for family and guests. An independent guest house offers additional privacy, with a bedroom, shower room and its own terrace. Outside, stone stairways connect landscaped garden terraces framed by palms, cypress trees and established planting. A large heated saltwater swimming pool forms the centrepiece of the outdoor spaces, complemented by a Jacuzzi, an outdoor shower and a pool house with a kitchenette and bar. Sunny terraces and shaded seating areas provide inviting places to dine, unwind and enjoy the far-reaching views. An elegant retreat that captures the charm of life in Provence, with space to gather and quiet corners to enjoy throughout the day.

Grasse occupies a hillside position in the Alpes-Maritimes, roughly 15 kilometres inland from Cannes, at an elevation that delivers views across the Esterel hills toward the Mediterranean. The city has been the centre of the French perfume industry for over four centuries, and that heritage is woven into its old town: narrow medieval lanes, Baroque architecture, and the cathedral of Notre-Dame-du-Puy dating to the 12th century. It carries genuine historical weight without the seasonal congestion of the coastal resorts.
The old town holds the Musée International de la Parfumerie and the historic houses of Fragonard, Molinard, and Galimard, all open year-round. The covered market on Place aux Aires is the anchor for daily shopping. Cannes, with its full range of restaurants, private clinics, and international schools, is a 25-minute drive.
Grasse sits on the A8 autoroute corridor, placing Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport approximately 40 minutes by car, with direct connections to most European capitals and long-haul routes. Cannes train station, reachable in under 30 minutes, provides TGV access to Paris in roughly five and a half hours. Monaco is approximately one hour by road, and the ski resorts of Auron and Isola 2000 are within two hours.
