Le Domaine des Petites Sœurs is just 800 m from Vence's historic center

It offers a peaceful, authentic, and green living environment with strong potential for rental and tourist development or family reunification.
The estate is in a sought-after residential area and boasts a unique charm for a personal or professional project based on tourist rentals.

The land still allows for 570 m² of construction
Existing rental activity – Studio in the house
Accommodation rented year-round via Airbnb, Booking, and other online rental platforms
Net annual revenue from the studio: €21,500 in 2025, which is nearly €1,800 per month
Excellent profitability with outstanding guest reviews
Established activity easily extendable to the other small cottages scattered across the estate
Strong development potential:
5 additional cottages to renovate spread out on the land (3 buildings of 16 m² each convertible into studios + 1 stone cottage of 20 m² with a mezzanine sleeping 4 + 1 building of 11 m² potentially serving as a master bedroom as it already includes a bathroom) – Healthy roof and structure – (ideal for holiday rentals or guest rooms)
Land still buildable (rare in this area)
Estate perfectly suited for tourism, events, wellness projects, or family reunification
With 6 renovated tourist accommodations, the estate could generate estimated annual rental income of over €110,000, or about €9,200/month (around €1,550/month per tourist accommodation)
By developing only the rental activity for the existing studios, you generate an 8% gross yield based on a sales price of €1,350,000.
If you decide to rent the house year-round at €2,200/month, the gross yield increases to 10% based on a sales price of €1,350,000.
If you choose to rent the house seasonally only for 16 weeks per year at €450 per night, the yield increases further, reaching almost 12%.
All buildings, including the main house, are connected to the public sewer system.
