In immediate proximity to the village of La Colle-sur-Loup, this remarkable stone property offers an exceptional living environment where history, authenticity, and nature harmoniously combine. Built on the foundations of an ancient 18th-century monastic pigeon house and later expanded in 1974 while respecting its original architecture, this residence of approximately 197 m² has retained the soul of its past. Behind its stone facades, each space reveals a rare architectural heritage: vaulted ceilings, an old bread oven, an imposing stone fireplace, terracotta floors, stone frames, and ancient materials create a warm and timeless atmosphere. Set in a 2.2-hectare estate, the property is surrounded by magnificent dry stone terraces, an olive grove composed of centenary and millenary olive trees, as well as preserved wooded areas. From the terraces, the living rooms, and the pool area, beautiful views open up onto the surrounding countryside and the typically Provençal landscapes, offering a peaceful panorama and a true sense of escape. The main house is organized around generous reception areas bathed in light: a spacious living room with its elegant fireplace and custom-made library, a characterful vaulted dining room, a more contemporary independent kitchen, as well as the old bread oven, a precious witness to the history of the place. On the first floor, the sleeping area is organized around a magnificent vaulted bedroom, whose architecture and ancient materials give it a particularly charming character. It opens onto a pleasant terrace. Two other bedrooms, each with their own shower room, an independent bathroom, and a separate WC complete this level. On the top level, an independent studio with a kitchen and shower room benefits from its own external access, offering perfect autonomy for hosting family, friends, or considering a hosting project. Finally, a small staircase leads to the pigeon house, the historic tower of the residence that gave its name to the property. Preserved in its original spirit, this unique space has been converted into a characterful bedroom, offering a unique atmosphere and a true journey back in time. Outside, a 10 x 3.50-meter saltwater pool perfectly integrates into the landscape. A large vaulted stone carport allows for parking two vehicles, and numerous parking spaces complete the amenities. More than just a character property, this residence is a true heritage asset, where several centuries of history blend with the sweetness of Provençal living, just a few minutes from shops and amenities. A rare address for lovers of authenticity, nature, and heritage.
