A charming villa (370 sqm), a former monastery dating back to the 18th century, facing the Mediterranean and the Côte d'Azur hills. The property includes 6 air-conditioned bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, a spacious sitting room, a summer kitchen, and a big heated pool with a well-equipped pool house — an exclusive hilltop residence with striking panoramic views over the Mediterranean and the Côte d'Azur hills. The monastery has been restored with a mix of European antiques and modern furnishings into a lovely family house providing 6 cozy air-conditioned bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
The living areas are generously sized and well-designed with a spacious vaulted sitting room, separate dining room, fully fitted kitchen, and breakfast room. Outside, the garden boasts numerous al fresco spots for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
The villa is built on 3 acres of Mediterranean gardens with over 100 olive trees, lavender banks, and extensive terraced lawns. A big, 12-meter saline swimming pool is heated to a pleasant 28°C and surrounded by comfortable sun loungers and umbrellas. Adjoining the pool is a fully equipped summer kitchen with an authentic charcoal barbecue, as well as a convenient gas barbecue and pizza oven — an ideal spot for enjoying family meals and sunsets. The pool house is complete with a shower, a toilet, and a changing room.
The villa is south-facing and enjoys the sun all day. Whether you choose dinner under the grapevines beside the water well, breakfast around the old millstone on the south-oriented terrace, or lunch in the summer kitchen, each time of day guarantees a special "alfresco" dining experience. The courtyard patio offers additional dinner space for larger groups if needed.
The entrance hall, part of the authentic monastic farm with wooden beams and meter-thick walls, leads to a TV lounge and a small open working space. Next to the office area is the master bedroom with a California king-size bed and an antique tiled bathroom en-suite (large tub, double sinks, shower, and a separate toilet). This bedroom opens through the large doors onto a balcony with magnificent views across the valley of Opio to the Bay of Cannes. A superb place for a romantic evening. On the same level next to the TV room, you will find a large guest bedroom decorated in soft grays and natural cottons with a king-size bed and en-suite bathroom (claw-foot tub, large walk-in shower, double sinks, and a toilet).
A stone spiral staircase leads to the second level, which includes 2 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms (shower, sink, and toilet). The romantic bedroom 3 offers a king-size bed and views towards the village of Chateauneuf de Grasse (the quietest room in the house). Bedroom 4 has a king-size bed and views over the garden.
A hallway and staircase lead up to the private bedroom 5. The "Tower Room" is the smallest bedroom in the residence, but it benefits from fantastic 360-degree views of the mountains, the village of Chateauneuf, the valley of Opio and Mougins, and the Bay of Cannes. The bedroom's walls are adorned with unique painted frescos, and its en-suite has a large walk-in shower, a sink, and a separate toilet.
From the entrance hall, the authentic stone staircase leads to the social hub of the house, where the traditional provencal kitchen is located, equipped with state-of-the-art appliances, a sunny breakfast room, and the adjacent dining room with a fireplace. A luminous passageway brings you to the impressive reception room with vaulted ceilings, a large fireplace, and arched windows. This level also houses a very cozy service duplex with a queen-size bed and a convertible couch, ideal for either a nanny or driver, the parents-in-law, noisy teenagers who need a little independence, or extra guests.
If the weather is bad, there is plenty of entertainment inside with Apple TV, Netflix, and Amazon Prime, as well as a cutting-edge wireless sound system. A separate air-conditioned and fully equipped gym offers a treadmill, a stationary bike, and various fitness equipment to keep you fit. The villa also offers a 3-car covered carport, as well as laundry facilities.
