On the south side of Vence - 3 mins from the historic Old Town with its restaurants, galleries, caf?s, markets and shops - and yet just 15 mins down to the beaches, and 20 mins to Nice airport.

Garden : The south side of the house has fully 83m? of sunny terracotta-paved verandas, shaded by Provencale tiled roofs (recently rebuilt and improved).

The 11m x 5m overflow' swimming pool is surrounded by a paved patio, adjacent to a large pool house with summer kitchen, BBQ and dining area. The spit is turned by a water wheel turned by a stream diverted from the pool. Shower, changing rooms and WC.
Below the pool is a boules pitch, with lighting for evening matches!

The landscaped garden has ancient olive trees, purple bougainvillea, climbing vines and Mediterranean shrubs. A watering system ; a greenhouse.
