Maison Magnolia France

Located between the mountains in the north and the dazzling coastline of the French Riviera in the south, Maison Magnolia is a charming former farmhouse that has been lovingly restored to create a comfortable modern villa.
Embodying a delightful fusion of traditional rustic charm and contemporary design, the villa has retained many of its original features, including its original beams and stonework, beautifully blended with a delicate modern style. There is elegant and tasteful décor throughout the home, especially in the beautiful living area complete with a large L-shaped sofa facing a long bench of comfortable seating and the large TV among a variety of more traditional furniture. The spacious kitchen extends from the dining area in a delightful open plan design, separated only by the large breakfast bar, perfect for casual mornings.
Each of the bedrooms is as charming and comfortable as the social areas including a sixth and final en-suite bedroom in the annexe, ensuring a little peace and privacy to those who seek it.
The garden is a vibrant fusion of charming original sculptures and stone walls, quaint paths and flower-lined walkways, all sprinkled with a pleasant array of olive trees, pine trees and magnolias. And finally, there is the beautiful private pool area, complete with several sun loungers, chairs and benches for your enjoyment. There is an alfresco dining area in the shade of the veranda and the pool terrace area benefits from the shade of a thriving magnolia tree.
Just 6km from the Grande Bastide golf course, and down the hill to the charming Provençal village of Le Rouret (1.3km) and just a short drive from Grasse, the capital of perfumery itself, Maison Magnolia could not be better placed to make the most of the region.
