In a peaceful, west-facing setting in Opio, just a short walk from the village of Valbonne, this spacious villa combines generous family accommodation with a garden designed for enjoying life outdoors. Sophia Antipolis is also within easy reach.

The house opens onto a bright, glazed terrace, where generous windows create a natural connection between the interiors and the landscaped garden. This leads through to a modern, fully equipped kitchen and dining area, while the separate living room looks out across the swimming pool and lawns. Beyond, a covered timber terrace offers a shaded setting for long lunches and relaxed evenings as the garden takes on the softer light of the afternoon.

Arranged over three levels, the villa offers approximately 300 m² of living space on a 2,500 m² plot. The ground floor includes a principal suite with dressing room and bathroom, together with a second en-suite bedroom. Two further en-suite bedrooms occupy the first floor, one opening onto a generous rooftop terrace with west-facing views. A fifth bedroom and laundry room are located on the lower ground floor.

A spacious three-car garage incorporates a wine cellar and private gym, adding to the practical appeal of the property.

With its swimming pool, established garden and generous proportions, this is a comfortable home for family living, equally suited to year-round residence or time spent on the Côte d’Azur. Valbonne village is close at hand, with the coast and Nice Airport readily accessible.

Price per sqft
Low
High
Opio is a small hilltop village in the Alpes-Maritimes, set among olive groves and pine forest in the hills above the Côte d’Azur, roughly midway between Cannes and Grasse. The village retains a genuinely rural character, with stone architecture, narrow lanes, and a pace of life that contrasts sharply with the coastal resorts below. Its proximity to Valbonne and the Sophia Antipolis technology park has made it a preferred address for international professionals and families seeking space and privacy without sacrificing access.

The medieval village of Valbonne, with its grid-plan arcaded square, weekly market, and concentration of restaurants including Café Brun and L’Auberge Fleurie, is within a few minutes by car. Grasse, the historic perfume capital, is approximately 10 minutes away. Cannes and its seafront are reachable in around 25 minutes.

Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport is approximately 30 kilometres from Opio, typically a 35 to 45 minute drive depending on traffic, with direct connections to most major European cities and long-haul routes. Cannes train station provides TGV access to Paris in roughly 5.5 hours. The A8 motorway, accessible via Mougins or Antibes, connects the area to Monaco, Italy, and Aix-en-Provence with ease.
