Lovely villa located in Châteauneuf-Grasse

Just a short walk from the picturesque village of Le Bar-sur-Loup, La Bastide du Riou is an exceptional stone estate that captures the essence of the Mediterranean lifestyle with the elegance and grandeur of a chateau. Set on 12,185 square metres of terraced hillside, the property enjoys sweeping panoramic views across the valley, surrounded by mature Provençal gardens, and offers a wealth of features designed for luxurious living.

The main residence welcomes you through a grand entrance hall with a guest Wc, leading into a vast double living room with a fireplace and floor-to-ceiling bay windows that frame spectacular valley views. A formal dining room and fully equipped kitchen open onto a shaded patio, which is complete with a water fountain and built-in barbecue—ideal for relaxed outdoor entertaining. A second lounge provides access to a private guest suite with its own en-suite bathroom, offering comfort and privacy.

Upstairs, the master suite is filled with natural light and boasts magnificent views along with access to a spacious office. Another en-suite bedroom with a private terrace completes the upper floor. The lower level of the villa houses staff quarters, a laundry room, a wine cellar, and generous storage space. An independent outdoor atelier offers flexibility as a gym, creative studio, or home office. At the top of the villa’s charming stone tower, a cosy library provides the most spectacular vantage point on the estate.

Complementing the main house is a recently built two-bedroom guardian’s residence, as well as multiple outbuildings, including a two-level apartment that presents an opportunity for renovation. The outdoor areas are truly extraordinary. At the heart of the gardens lies a breathtaking 18-metre heated infinity pool edged with glass, offering uninterrupted views across the valley. The pool area is completed by a shaded summer lounge and a convenient changing area.

The estate also features a full-size tennis court, cascading fountains and ponds, and an array of beautifully landscaped spaces. Among the highlights are century-old olive trees that yield up to 60 litres of olive oil each year, along with a citrus orchard and a dedicated vegetable garden—perfect for those who value a connection to the land and sustainable living.
