OPIO/ GRASSE, VILLA «CARABELLA»

A Romantic Country House in Opio – A Home in Provence

There are places that are more than just a holiday home. Places that instantly embrace you, make you feel at ease, and give you the sense that you’ve always belonged there. This lovingly maintained country house in Opio is exactly such a place.

Nestled among the gentle hills between Grasse and Cannes, surrounded by ancient olive trees, blooming gardens, and the scent of lavender, the house feels like a small, hidden paradise – მშვიდ, private, and full of the joie de vivre of southern France.

From the very first moment, you can feel it: this is a home that has grown over time, that has been lived in and loved. Not an interchangeable vacation rental, but a true home where family and friends come together – to laugh, to cook, and to enjoy time with one another.

Four cozy bedrooms with generous beds and three stylish bathrooms offer plenty of space for shared days – as well as for quiet moments of retreat. A separate guest room with its own entrance, a small living area, and a bathroom provides additional privacy – perfect for guests or older children who appreciate having a space of their own.

The heart of the home is its warm, typically Provençal kitchen. This is not just a place for cooking – it is a place for living. Open the windows, let in the summer air, chop fresh herbs, enjoy a glass of rosé, and prepare simple, delicious meals together – perhaps using ingredients from the market in Grasse or the market halls of Cannes.

Outside, the true spirit of Provence unfolds: expansive terraces overlooking the hills, a shaded spot beneath the trees, and a long table for shared evenings. Mornings begin with coffee in the sun, afternoons with a light meal in the shade, and evenings stretch out as you linger together while the sky slowly fades into warm colors.

The pool, set within the garden and surrounded by sun loungers, quickly becomes a favorite place. Children laugh and play in the water, while adults read, doze, or simply lose themselves in the moment. Everything is possible, nothing is required – this is what a true holiday feels like.

This home tells stories of long summers, shared meals, bare feet wandering through the garden, and the soft chirping of cicadas in the evening air. It is a place where memories are made – effortlessly.

The Surroundings – Provence as You Imagine It

Opio is located in one of the most beautiful regions of southern France – between sea and mountains, between tradition and the art of living.

Just a few minutes away lies Grasse, the famous perfume capital, with its winding streets and small cafés – a place that delights all the senses, not least through houses such as Fragonard.

Nearby villages like Valbonne and Mougins invite you to wander: weekly markets, charming squares, excellent food, and that special, relaxed way of life that stays with you long after you leave.

And whenever the sea calls, the coast is within easy reach – whether it’s the elegant atmosphere of Cannes or the charming coves around Antibes.

A house like this is rare. It is not a place for haste – but for arriving, breathing deeply, and wanting to stay.

Welcome to your home in Provence.
