Beautifully and lovingly restored and fully renovated by its present owner in 1992, this impressive stone farmhouse, or “Mas,” dates back to the 16th to 17th century, and is located in the charming hilltop village of Callian. 

The estate - which includes a guest house, pool, and stables - is situated on over 2 flat acres of Provence scented bliss with expansive views of the surrounding storybook countryside. Here, where life is to be savored, all main rooms open out onto flower filled gardens, stone patios, and magnificent trees. Outside the fully equipped kitchen is an arbor leading the way to a zen-like water lily filled pond. There is also an outdoor kitchen with a built-in barbeque, and nearby is the pool area. The main house has stone fireplaces in both the living and dining rooms. There are 6 bedrooms including a master bedroom suite with a luxurious bathroom featuring a jacuzzi bathtub, a sauna, and a steam shower. And as this is Provence, there is, of course, a wine cellar and a couple of root cellars in the Mas as well. 

Included on the grounds of this idyllic gated estate, is a guest house which has a living room with fireplace, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom; a three car garage, carports and parking; stables and storerooms. 

Callian is loaded with charm and has a vibrant expat community with tennis clubs, cultural events, and food & wine social activities. Conveniently located 25 minutes from Cannes, and 45 minutes from Nice Airport. The homeowner lives there about 6 months out of the year and encourages buyers to look into getting a “carte de sejour” if interested in becoming a resident. With a strong dollar, who wouldn’t want to experience A Year in Provence in this fabulous farmhouse?
