Luxury Living in Provence and The Var
Provence, which is located in the South of France, has all types of landscapes, from coastline to valleys to mountains. To the west is the Rhone river and to the east is the Italian border. The coastline of the Côte d’Azur is Provence’s most enticing locale, offering stunning coastal scenery and a luxurious Mediterranean lifestyle. The Var brims with unique villages and well-known resorts. Provence attracts homebuyers who love countryside settings while still having proximity to culture and entertainment. Take in the natural vistas, immerse yourself in bustling cities, spend an afternoon in a museum or gallery, and dine on local cuisine, which is influenced by the area’s olive trees.
Living in Provence means being in the centre of rich traditions and history, surrounded by fountains, monuments and ancient Roman ruins. Festival celebrations, like December’s Christmastide, plus exhibitions, fetes and markets will fill up your calendar. Like something out of a children’s book, Provence’s distinct towns and villages offer an incomparable experience and lifestyle. Saint Rémy’s sunflowers and cypress trees inspired Van Gogh, Luberon is best explored by bicycle and the Gigondas region offers luxury vineyard properties. Enjoy the Mediterranean Sea’s scenic views and outdoor living, such as dining on balconies with sunset vistas or engaging in water sports along the coast.
