A Jewel of History and Nature
Nestled in the heart of Provence, the Domaine de la Sylviane spans over 10 hectares of unspoiled nature, combining landscaped gardens, Mediterranean woodlands, and centuries-old olive groves. Originally founded in the 17th century by Chalaisian monks as a place of retreat and contemplation, the estate has witnessed remarkable chapters of history—from the Napoleonic era to the French Resistance—before becoming the residence of the Grimaldi family, including Princess Joséphine de Polignac. For the past three generations, it has been lovingly maintained by its current owners, preserving its authenticity and charm.
The main stone residence has been meticulously restored, offering modern comforts while honoring its historic soul. It features generous reception areas, a spacious primary suite, a traditional country kitchen opening onto a vine-covered pergola, four ensuite bedrooms, and dedicated staff quarters.
The estate also includes several independent outbuildings: a farmhouse housing three suites across two apartments, a converted bergerie now serving as a charming guesthouse, a former olive press transformed into staff accommodation, and two caretaker’s houses discreetly integrated into the landscape.
Producing nearly 1,000 liters of olive oil annually under its private label, the property offers outstanding leisure facilities, including a 21 x 10-meter swimming pool, a refined pool house, a fully equipped gym, and a tennis court with panoramic views. Accessible by road through two majestic entrances or by helicopter, Domaine de la Sylviane offers a rare blend of history, elegance, and tranquility that leaves a lasting impression on all who visit.
