Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Explore the Côte d'Azur with ease from this Valbonne home. It's just twenty-five minutes from the coast and beaches, with picturesque villages like Saint-Paul-de-Vence and Mougins also nearby. Provençal style inspired, the interiors are charming – white-washed beams adorn the ceilings, artwork hangs above the dining table, a lofted single bed makes an ideal hideout for little ones, and a small desk sits on the upstairs landing if you need to work from home. But it's the garden that really shines here. Sweeping mountain & sea views provide the perfect backdrop for cocktail hours and alfresco dinners. The private pool will also be hard to resist.

But Cannes' dazzle reaches far beyond the flash of the paparazzi's cameras.
