2 September 2024

Magrey & Sons expands into Valbonne, Saint-Paul-de-Vence and surrounding areas

The real estate group specializing in exceptional properties is strengthening its presence on the French Riviera with the opening of a new agency at the pedestrian entrance of the village of Valbonne. This marks its expansion into the Riviera’s hinterland, extending from Valbonne to Saint-Paul-de-Vence, and including the Provençal villages of Opio, Châteauneuf-Grasse, Grasse, Biot, Tourrettes-sur-Loup, La Colle-sur-Loup and Vence.

Renowned for its peaceful atmosphere and enchanting setting, Valbonne charms visitors with its medieval streets, lively markets, and rich historical heritage. The village offers a variety of distinctive properties, ranging from traditional Provençal farmhouses to contemporary villas, meeting the growing demand for prestigious residences. Surrounded by lush landscapes, Valbonne provides an authentic experience with its picturesque boutiques, charming cafes, and refined restaurants around the vibrant main square.

Valbonne is lively year-round, thanks to its warm local merchants, such as Éric Gayraud, Artisan-Fromager at 365 Fromages, and Nicolas Cloiseau, named Meilleur Ouvrier de France. Every Friday morning, a Provençal market takes over the village's streets and corners, where regional producers showcase their goods, delighting fans of fresh and local products.

The central square, the true heart of the village, is bustling every season. Ideal for enjoying a coffee, lunch, or dinner, it is surrounded by numerous restaurants offering a range of quality choices to suit all tastes.

Valbonne – An Authentic Village

The flower-lined streets and surrounding forests offer perfect trails for walking or cycling with the family, allowing for full enjoyment of the natural surroundings. Local festivals, such as the Fête de la Saint Roch on August 15 and 16, 2024, are must-attend events.

Additionally, Valbonne is home to renowned international schools, such as the International Center of Valbonne and the prestigious Moratoglou Tennis Academy, attracting families from around the world.

Saint-Paul-de-Vence – A Famous, Mythical, and International Village

Perched on a verdant hill just 15 minutes from the sea, the medieval village of Saint-Paul de-Vence offers a spectacular panorama stretching from the sea to the pre-Alps. This village is known for its elegant and serene ambiance. The cobbled streets, art galleries, and refined restaurants are easily accessible from the prestigious Hauts de Saint-Paul, where exceptional properties offer breathtaking sea views.

Each year, from August 8 to 11, the residents celebrate Sainte Claire, one of the village's patron saints, with festivities starting at the Sainte Claire chapel and continuing with a procession through the village.

Saint-Paul-de-Vence's wealth is also evident through the Fondation Maeght. As France’s first modern and contemporary art foundation, it is celebrating its 60th anniversary this summer with a major exhibition titled "Amitiés, Bonnard-Matisse." The celebrations will include the inauguration of new exhibition rooms dedicated to the permanent collection, as well as concerts, dance performances, film screenings, and readings throughout the month.

Don’t miss the famous restaurant "La Colombe d’Or," where you might encounter celebrities like Brad Pitt, Quentin Tarantino, or Marion Cotillard, and which is adorned with artworks by Matisse, Braque, Picasso, Miró, César, and others.

Located at the pedestrian entrance of the village, our agency offers optimal accessibility and a warm atmosphere. Our experienced team provides personalized service, combining expertise and commitment in the real estate sector.
