Mougins keeps Picasso's secrets tucked into hillside lanes where the artist spent his final years painting with the freedom that comes from no longer needing to prove anything to anyone. Our villas in Mougins occupy this same creative sanctuary, where art galleries hide behind medieval facades and where conversations at morning markets still revolve around which famous painter lived in which stone house.
The village operates on artist time - shops close when owners feel like taking long lunches, galleries open when inspiration strikes, and everyone understands that creativity can't be rushed. You'll find studios where contemporary artists work in spaces once occupied by masters, and restaurants where chefs approach cooking with the same experimental spirit that drew painters here generations ago.
Our villas in Mougins attract guests who value creative inspiration over conventional luxury. Think properties with north-facing studios where morning light never changes, libraries filled with art books that previous guests left behind, and terraces positioned to catch the same golden hour light that made Picasso abandon his easel to simply watch the sun set over the Mediterranean. These homes understand that some travelers collect experiences, while others need places where they can create them.
