The gated 15 acre estate is tucked away in the French Riviera hill north of Cannes, located near the perched village of Plascassier near the town of Grasse.

This picturesque perfume town has been the fragrance capital of the world since the 17th century (la capitale mondiale des parfums), with the Provencal town’s perfect climate creating ideal growing conditions for aromatic flora.

The 18th century French bastide sits at the heart of a lush park featuring century-old olive trees and landscaped gardens, and offers unobstructed views of the surrounding landscape.

The property has been carefully renovated and offers plenty of authentic Provencal charm, in addition to air conditioning throughout.

The main bastide offers over 3700 square feet of living space with 6 bedrooms, and the estate comes with a one-bedroom guest house, a 2-bedroom house for staff, and a caretaker’s cottage.

The swimming pool is tucked away on a lush corner of the property, alongside the pool house featuring a living room with fireplace, a summer kitchen, shower room, and a sauna.
