Live in Mougins

A breathtaking panorama at the heart of the French Riviera

Perched at 260 metres above sea level, Mougins overlooks the Bay of Cannes and the rolling hills of the Côte d’Azur, offering spectacular views of the Lérins Islands, the Prealps and the Valmasque forest park. Just 15 minutes from the coastline and Cannes, the village combines Provençal charm, a gentle pace of life and an exceptional natural setting.

Mougins village, a preserved and vibrant medieval heart

Authentic charm on a hilltop

The historic centre of Mougins captivates with its unique character. This hilltop village, with its winding alleys, stone facades, colourful shutters and old fountains, embodies the refined essence of Provence. It offers a rare lifestyle, surrounded by art galleries, beautifully restored village houses, sunlit terraces and panoramic views over the Mediterranean and the inland hills.

Land of artists and cultural destination

Mougins has long been a haven for great artists such as Pablo Picasso, Fernand Léger and Jean Cocteau. This artistic heritage remains alive through the town’s numerous galleries, studios and events, with the Mougins museum of classical art (MACM) standing out as a major cultural attraction.

A village celebrating gastronomy

Mougins is also a renowned culinary destination. Home to prestigious restaurants and a vibrant gourmet scene, the village hosts the international Étoiles de Mougins festival each year, bringing together the world’s top chefs for live demonstrations and interactive culinary experiences.

A green and peaceful setting on the doorstep of Cannes

Beyond the historic village, Mougins stretches into elegant residential neighborhoods nestled in lush, preserved surroundings. This part of Mougins is particularly prized for its prestigious villas, set in nature, with landscaped gardens, swimming pools, open views over the hills or the sea, and often located within private gated estates.

The local real estate market is diverse and highly sought-after, offering a wide selection of contemporary homes, belle époque residences, Provençal estates, traditional bastides and stunning architect-designed properties, blending design and nature with harmony.
