Some French homes instantly transport their guests to quintessentially French locations like in a holiday brochure. Maison Lavande is one of those homes.
Scents of lavender and pine greet you as you arrive at this classic villa with mesmerizing views of the surrounding landscape.
This home could not have been more blessed with its South of France location. It commands an elevated position tucked away in the hills just above Cannes and Antibes, just a two-minute drive from a French village and with picturesque Valbonne only a 10-minute drive away (and Mougins a further 20 minutes). Just 25-30 minutes away are some of the region’s jewels; the famous Côte d’Azur towns of Nice and Cannes, the beaches of Juan les Pins and Cannes, the perfume houses of Grasse and the charming medieval villages of St Paul de Vence and Gourdon.
The house sits prettily in its envelope of climbing plants and thick and fragrant Mediterranean flowers, shrubs and majestic trees. Charming blue shutters peak through the foliage and invite you to discover the indoors where an elegant and classic French interior provides plenty of space for all the family. Fittings and furnishings are of high quality and every effort has been made to create a stylish and warm ambience with lovely fire places, beautiful antiques and lots of personal touches. This is a real home-away-from-home.
Maison Lavande is a beautiful coming together of its naturally seductive location and its owners’ impeccable taste, creating a French holiday home which will transport its guests and create family memories which will last forever.
