About this property
Set against a backdrop of rolling hills and southern French charm, Villa Mirail is a contemporary abode with an authentic soul. Just moments from the medieval heart of Seillans, officially one of the prettiest villages in France, this south-facing villa invites you to unwind in comfort, surrounded by sweeping views of terracotta rooftops, cypress-lined valleys and endless blue skies.
Inside, the villa unfolds over two levels. On the upper floor, pretty windows frame the scenery from a stylish open-plan living space where the kitchen, dining and lounge areas flow seamlessly together. Every room is fully air-conditioned, with Wi-Fi throughout. A playful design detail reveals a hidden double ensuite bedroom, cleverly concealed behind a bookshelf door. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the upper level, while a spacious fourth ensuite bedroom on the garden level offers direct outdoor access.
Outside, a private swimming pool sparkles at the centre of the terraced garden, flanked by loungers and a solar shower. Meals come to life in the summer kitchen, equipped with hob, American-style fridge-freezer and a barbecue, all designed for long, convivial lunches or dinners under the stars. Boules, table-tennis and pretty corners for morning coffee or an afternoon siesta offer something for every pace of holiday life.
Just a short stroll away, Seillans enchants with its cobbled lanes, artist galleries and a handful of restaurants and shops. The bustling village of Fayence is just ten minutes by car, while Lac de Saint-Cassien, with its beaches, boat hire and waterside restaurants, is a family favourite just 25 minutes away.
For coastal day trips, Cannes and the Mediterranean shoreline are less than an hour away, as are the perfume ateliers of Grasse and the watersports of Fréjus. Whether you’re exploring the Riviera or enjoying lazy days by the pool, Villa Mirail offers the perfect base for families or groups seeking effortless elegance in a wonderful setting.
Villa Mirail is located on the edge of the enchanting village of Seillans, less than a 5-minute walk from the village centre. With Nice Airport just an hour away by car, this is a superb location for exploring the French Riviera’s beautiful hinterland with some wonderful days out by the Mediterranean.
Recognised as one of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France, Seillans is a picture-perfect hilltop village, with cobbled lanes and panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Just a short stroll downhill along a country lane brings you to the charming village centre with a small handful of restaurants and shops, ideal for immersing yourself in the gentle rhythm of French village life.
Villa Mirail is perfectly placed for exploring the riches of the Var region. The neighbouring village of Fayence (6km) offers a wider choice of excellent restaurants, bakeries and a superb twice-weekly market, while a large supermarket is just a 15-minute drive away for all your holiday essentials. Venture a little further and you’ll find Lac de Saint-Cassien (25km), a shimmering lake surrounded by forested hills, offering lakeside beaches, restaurants, pedalos, kayaking, and sailing - great fun for families and water-lovers alike.
If you're feeling adventurous, the stunning Gorges du Verdon await around 90 minutes away, offering crystal-clear lakes perfect for kayaking or wild swimming
