Origin and history
Villa Saint-Jean, located in Grasse in the Alpes-Maritimes, is a monument built between the 4th quarter of the 18th century and the 1st quarter of the 19th century. This building, inscribed in the Historical Monuments by order of 12 June 1992, is distinguished by its facades and roofs, its well and its two garden fountains, as well as an alcove room on the first floor, preserving all its original décor. The chimney in the southwest bedroom is also one of the protected elements.
The official address of Villa Saint-Jean, according to the Merimée base, is 91 chemin de Saint-Jean, although approximate GPS coordinates place it near Place Général de Gaulle. The monument is located in the town of Grasse, identified by the code Insee 06069, in the department of the Alpes-Maritimes and the region Provence-Alpes-Côte d的Azur. No information is available on its current accessibility (visits, rentals, accommodation).
Available sources, including Monumentum, highlight its status as a Historic Monument without specifying its initial use or its potential owners. The architecture and protected decorative elements suggest a bourgeois or aristocratic residence, typical of Provencal houses of this period, combining functionality and classical aesthetics. The accuracy of its location is considered poor (note 5/10), indicating relative geographical uncertainty.
