Ask a questionAbout Corinne Payne
I am Canadian and my husband is French. I am a yoga teacher and my husband is an architect and artist. We have lived here for thirty years and finally found the stone house of our dreams to renovate in Opio which has the nicest quality of life of all the surrounding villages. It has the most green zones, therefore is the quietest and most rural yet is 5 minutes from the more built up and lively village of Valbonne and 25 minutes from Cannes. My husband is an architect also and we share the same passion for restoring stones houses in Provence.
Corinne Payne purchased this Villa in 2008
Why Corinne Payne chose La Grand-Chile
We chose this property because it is in the most protected area of the region. There is total privacy and calm. And especially for the 200 year oak tree which shades the terrace like no other awning or parasol can do. The position of the pool is ideal for watching over small children swimming. The Provençal landscaped gardens are charming with olive, cypres, citrus, oleanders, palms and many more.
What makes this Villa unique
Our property is situated in one of the most peaceful and green settings of Opio and yet only 5 minutes from Valbonne. We have a south western exposition so sun all day, with the advantage of having a large oak sheltering just the dining/relaxing terrace from sun by lunchtime. On warm summer days this is an idtyllic setting to relax in to read a book, have lunch or just take a break from the full sun and swimming. We also offer yoga retreats between September and June. If you are interested please contact me.
