Modern Contemporary Villa In A Secure Domaine

Opio is a small hilltop village in the Alpes-Maritimes, set among olive groves and pine forest in the Pays de Grasse, roughly ten kilometres north of Cannes. The village retains the character of a working Provençal commune, with stone architecture, narrow lanes, and a pace of life that contrasts sharply with the coastal resorts below. The surrounding countryside is protected and largely undeveloped, which keeps the area quiet and the views across the hills toward the Mediterranean largely intact.

The market town of Valbonne is five minutes by car and offers a weekly market, a good selection of restaurants around its arcaded central square, and everyday shopping. Grasse, the historic perfume capital, is ten minutes away. Sophia Antipolis, Europe’s largest technology park, is directly adjacent, making Opio a practical base for professionals working in the tech sector.

Cannes is reachable in around twenty minutes by car via the D3 and D6185. Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport is approximately thirty-five kilometres away, typically a thirty to forty minute drive depending on traffic, with direct connections to most major European cities and intercontinental routes. The A8 motorway, accessible near Mougins, links the area to Monaco in under an hour and to Aix-en-Provence in roughly ninety minutes.
