Dream Stone Home in Idyllic Medieval Village | 20 Min from Nice | Unique Charm & Business Potential
Nestled in the heart of the picturesque medieval village of Peillon, this unique 3-bedroom stone house is a true haven of charm and authenticity—accessible only on foot via a short stroll from the main square and about 50 scenic, gently ascending stone steps.
Exceptionally bright for a village house of this era, it benefits from numerous windows on all sides, flooding the interior with natural light throughout the day.
The home has been tastefully renovated, blending contemporary comfort with centuries-old character. It offers three spacious en-suite bedrooms, a cozy living room with wood-burning oven, an inviting dining room, a large fully equipped kitchen, and a guest WC.
A rare architectural feature—a small private bridge—connects the main house to an adjoining building housing one of the bedrooms with a balcony offering breathtaking panoramic views over the Peillon valley.
136m² of living space + two vaulted stone cellars with 44m² of storage.
20 minutes to Nice.
