Karine Long presents: in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, one of the most sought-after residential areas in the region, this 220 sqm neo-Provençal villa, of which approximately 109 sqm falls under the Carrez law, enjoys a walled, tree-lined garden with a swimming pool, within a residence of a distinctly human scale. Generous proportions across three levels, a salmon-pink façade with turquoise-blue shutters, olive and palm trees: the gentle way of life of the Nice hinterland, fully embraced here. On the ground floor, the beautiful living room extends into a veranda, which in turn opens onto a spacious terrace. The dining room and kitchen flow together seamlessly, for a generous living space, completed by a separate WC. Upstairs, the master suite opens onto a dressing room and en-suite bathroom, with a distinctly Provençal character, all weathered wood and arched windows. Two further bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and a shower room complete this family-friendly sleeping level. On the lower ground floor, an additional space of around 32 sqm, with a window, lends itself equally well to a gym, a playroom, a studio, or a guest bedroom. Rare for this type of property: a generous garage of over 50 sqm with a mezzanine that doubles as a cellar. Several terraces and a covered porch accompany every hour of the day, from morning coffee to evening drinks by the water. Reversible air conditioning and a fireplace ensure year-round comfort, in a particularly economical home, among the best-performing in the area. Double glazing provides good acoustic and thermal insulation, while an electric gate, video entry phone and electric roller shutters add to everyday security. Management, handled by a volunteer trustee (syndic bénévole), stays on a human scale, with very light service charges, far removed from the burden of larger residences. From Picasso and Jean-Paul Sartre, historic guests of La Colombe d'Or, to Yves Montand and his circle, and Chagall, who lived and painted here, Saint-Paul-de-Vence has always drawn those seeking both beauty and discretion. The village still lives by that artistic spirit: workshops, galleries and the Fondation Maeght animate its medieval streets. The heart of the village is reached within minutes, also served by a local bus route to Vence and Cagnes-sur-Mer. The sea is 15 minutes away, Nice airport 25 minutes, Monaco around 40 minutes, and the ski resorts an hour and a half: close enough to enjoy both the Mediterranean and the mountains, without ever straying far from home. The security of a small residence, the independence of a private house: this rare balance speaks directly to several types of buyer. A woman living alone with her children will find genuine peace of mind in secure access. Overseas retirees, just fifteen minutes from the airport, will see an easy-to-reach, easy-to-maintain second home, with very low charges. A working family with children gains the space, walled garden and pool of a private house, without ever giving up the security of a small residence. All good reasons why a property this rare, just minutes from a village known the world over, never stays on the market for long.
