Mougins
Mougins is truly a melting pot of all things French, all things Provençale and all the ingredients required for complete joie de vivre. This large historical village, on the heights of Cannes, with the Mediterranean Sea only 8kms away beautifully fuses arts, cuisine, nature and technology through the successful business park Sophia Antipolis below. Pablo Picasso lived out his days in the area, more than 40 restaurants leave you spoilt for choice, the nearby Parc de la Valmasque is great for strolling and the science and technology park, Sophia Antipolis, below provides employment for more than 26.000 highly skilled workers.
Mougins is Medieval Provence at its best. In fact the beautiful hilltop on which Mougins is scenically perched has been occupied since pre-Roman times, but most of the ‘old village’ which still remains dates from the 11th to 15th Centuries when the town was under the rule of Genova. During this period the Monks of Saint Honorat administered the village and fortified it, creating the city walls still visible today. However, ‘modern’ Mougins is today a mixture of this medieval architecture and small narrow streets built after the village was plundered and fire damaged in the early 19th Century. Investors in Mougins real estate have a real choice of style and period to select from.
Close to fifty percent of the commune of Mougins is made up by parks. Two especially contribute to making Mougins real estate a fantastic base for nature lovers. Parc de la Valmasque, just East of Mougins, provides entertainment in the form of horse-riding trails, paths and botanical walks. Wandering through its impressive pine and oak trees is a fantastic way to spend a Sunday. La Brague Park, part of which stretches into the commune of Mougins, is divided a river known to be perfect for trout. Stop and catch lunch or stroll along the 9km river bank and take in the scenery.
Despite the presence of incredible restaurants, not least the famous Le Moulin de Mougins, beautiful art galleries, boutiques and the fact that Mougin is home to the annual Cannes Film Festival charity fund-raiser, Mougins somehow remains charmingly unspoilt by tourists. Add to this the presence of two superb golf courses, Nice airport close at hand, the beach resort of Cannes only a short drive and Sophia Antipolis Technopark, with its world leading science and technology companies within a short commute and it’s easy to see why property for sale in Mougins is very limited.
