Situated on over a hectare (more than 2 acres) of beautifully manicured, fully fenced and mainly flat grounds accessible through electric gates and a private driveway. The landscaped gardens feature a very impressive, recently installed pool, pool house and a summer kitchen, complemented by numerous lawned areas, a stunning olive grove, an orangery, pétanque court and several sunny and covered terraces.

This appealing, generously proportioned home was built in 1935 and is tucked away in the Saint Jacques area of Grasse, offering peaceful surroundings and wonderful, far reaching views of Grasse and surrounding hills and countryside.

In addition, there is a separate dining or breakfast room and a large dining kitchen with an island, leading out to a shaded terrace and garden at the rear of the property. Also on the ground floor there is a guest W.C and a single bedroom / office with a shower room.
