Provincial-Style Villa on the French Riviera Comes With a Pool, a Garden and a Rooftop Terrace

Listing of the Day

Location: Sainte-Maxime, France

Price: €1.32 million (US$1.4 million)

This provincial-style villa on the French Riviera offers easy access to La Nartelle beach, a swimming pool, a garden, a rooftop terrace and a studio.

“It’s a little bit old style,” said listing agent Layan Mahshi, of Finlay Brewer International. “People who like French Provincial will like this villa.”

The three-level home, which was built in 1986, has been a popular rental this summer, going for €7,000 a week, she said.

In the off-season, it would likely rent for somewhere between €3,500 and €4,000 a week, Mahshi said. “It’s just five minutes from La Nartelle beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in the area.”

“There is a huge terrace on the top level where you can enjoy a few drinks and the sun,” she said.

The ground floor holds a studio connected to the main part of the house but which can be completely independent, a garage, a workshop and a cellar, according to the listing. Upstairs there is an entry hall with a closet, a large living room, a dining room, a kitchen and an office that can serve as a third bedroom.

“From the living room, sliding glass doors open to a huge garden and access to the swimming pool,” she said. A corridor from the living room leads to a small reading room and two bedrooms that share a bathroom.

The top level holds the fourth bedroom and the rooftop terrace.

Neighborhood Notes 



From the villa, it’s a five- to 10-minute drive to Sainte-Maxime, a “typical small French town with many restaurants, many shops and grocery stores,” Mahshi said. And it’s a short walk or drive to La Nartelle beach, which has “lots of restaurants and bars and sports activities.”

The closest airports are in Nice (an hour and 10 minutes) and Toulon (an hour and 20 minutes), she said. It’s about an hour and 15 minutes to Cannes.
