Homes with land and a pool

A garden large enough for children and a pool for the long summers are what many families come to the hills behind the coast to find. Both bring obligations as well as pleasure.

In the communes between Sophia Antipolis and Grasse, such as Valbonne, Opio, Roquefort-les-Pins and Biot, villas commonly stand on plots of a few thousand square metres, often with pine and oak woodland, olive terraces and a pool. The villas presented on this site at present sit on plots from about 800 m² to about 6,765 m² and each has a pool.

Before buying a home with land and a pool, a buyer should check:

  1. that the in-ground pool has one of the four approved safety devices required by law: a barrier, an alarm, a cover or a shelter;
  2. that the pool, pool house and any terraces were built with the required planning consent (pools, extensions and planning);
  3. the brush-clearing obligation: in areas exposed to forest fire, owners must keep the ground cleared around buildings, over 50 metres in the standard case; a seller must inform the buyer of this obligation;
  4. the sanitation report if the house has its own septic system, which must be less than three years old at the sale (property diagnostics);
  5. the cost of keeping the garden and pool: water, maintenance and the time it takes.
