Family home between sea and hills - Charm, lemon trees & tranquillity

🟡 In Menton – 4 bedrooms, 7 real beds + sofa bed – 5 minutes from the sea and shops – Private parking for 4 to 5 cars
Nestled in the lush vegetation of an old family estate, our house "La Campagne de nos Grands-Parents" welcomes you for a peaceful retreat between the sea and hills, surrounded by organic lemon trees.

Protected by 2 hectares of hillside, this independent home offers absolute tranquility, authentic charm, and timeless character, just 5 minutes from the beach, grocery stores, and highway exit (yet far from any noise or visual nuisance).

🌿 A place full of soul and history
Passed down through generations, the house has been modernized while preserving its soul and original features:

Traditional terracotta tiles

Antique still in the living room

Thick walls and shutters to keep the interior naturally cool

The home is shaded by a century-old wisteria and antique rosebush, and the bright bedrooms offer breathtaking views from the valley to the sea and mountains. Sunrises and sunsets are magical, year-round.

🌞 Two terraces to enjoy at every moment:
A shaded terrace ideal for summer lunches and naps

A sunny terrace, perfect in winter or for morning coffee

Beau logement, un peu difficile d'accès. Aménagement un peu moyen.

Das Haus hat eine schöne Lage mit Blick auf die Berge. Allerdings sollte man gut zu Fuß sein, da man vom Parkplatz so drei bis fünf Minuten nach oben laufen muss. Ansonsten ist man mit dem Auto in ein paar Minuten in der Stadt und eine Bushaltestelle liegt auch in der Nähe. Die Ansprechpartner wohnen in der Nähe und sind schnell vor Ort, wenn ein Problem zu lösen ist.

L’accueil de Stéphane et Amandine était particulièrement chaleureux et attentif ; la maison est très agréable et entre le vieux Menton, Nice et ses musées, le cap Martin, son sentier, la villa d’Eileen Gray et le cabanon de le Corbusier et le Mercantour, entre mer et montagne, l’environnement regorge de merveilles.

Un vrai bonheur

Quelle chance de trouver un lieu pareil à Menton! Tout dans cette endroit respire l'ambiance de la campagne provençale. La maison située à flanc de colline est très calme . Le paysage depuis la terrasse est magnifique. Aucun vis à vis, peu de circulation , les soirées sont absolument tranquilles . La maison bien que très ancienne est bien équipée . Aucun bruit pour dormir à part celui des oiseaux le matin !Je recommande cet endroit pour se reposer et profiter de cette situation belle région sans la moindre reserve La pa
