Le Bar-sur-Loup : An Exceptional Stone Estate with Panoramic Views, Pool, Tennis & Provençal Gardens

Perched just a short stroll from the charming village of Le Bar-sur-Loup, La Bastide du Riou is an enchanting stone villa with the grandeur of a château, offering the ultimate Mediterranean lifestyle. Set on 12,185 sqm of terraced hillside, the estate boasts breathtaking valley views, mature Provençal gardens, and a host of amenities.

The main residence features a welcoming entrance hall with guest WC, leading into an expansive double living room with a fireplace and floor-to-ceiling bay windows framing spectacular views down the valley. A formal dining room and a fully equipped kitchen open out to a shaded patio, complete with a water fountain and built-in BBQ — ideal for entertaining.

A second lounge provides access to a private guest suite with en-suite bathroom. Upstairs, the master suite enjoys excellent light, sweeping views, and access to a spacious office. Another en-suite bedroom with a private terrace completes this floor.

The lower level includes staff quarters, a laundry room, wine cellar, and ample storage. An independent outdoor atelier offers flexible use as a gym, creative studio, or home office. At the top of the villa’s stone tower, a cozy library provides the estate's most breathtaking viewpoint.

The property is further enhanced by a recently constructed two-bedroom guardian’s house, and several outbuildings including an additional two-level apartment in need of renovation.

The spectacular 18-meter heated infinity pool, edged with glass for uninterrupted views, is a feat of engineering and a serene blue jewel in the lush garden landscape. The pool area features a shaded summer lounge and a convenient changing area.

Outdoors, the estate continues to impress: a full-size tennis court, a series of cascading fountains and ponds, and a beautifully landscaped garden with 100-year-old olive trees producing up to 60 liters of olive oil annually. There’s also a citrus orchard and a dedicated vegetable garden for those who appreciate living from the land.

Accessible from both the top and bottom of the property, this rare estate offers privacy, scale, and an authentic Provençal charm — a true haven in the South of France.
