The development
In a contemporary and warm style, the architecture of this development favours Provencal ochre shades, quality materials and a generous amount of space. The residence marries traditional elements with today’s technologies to great effect, for a better management of energy, water, waste and hygrothermal comfort. With its swimming pool and games area, as well as generous terraces, loggias and pergolas, the residence is the perfect place for a holiday, or year-round living.

Location
The residence is located to the south of the charming Provencal town of Draguignan, forming part of the commune’s development programme, and fits perfectly with the global ethos of this emblematic project, whilst still affirming its own personality. The programme has been conceived as a residential district with all services and comforts on one’s doorstep: offices, medical facilities, amenities and shops, a 7 acre park and cultural centres. Draguignan is a typical Provencal town, nestled in the hills of the Var, ideally located between the Saint Tropez bay and the Verdon gorges. The old town offers plenty of interesting sites and shops to explore, and is the location of the great food market at the Place du Marche. From here the street climbs up a hill and to the 17th century Tour de l’Horloge, set beside the little open air Theatre de Verdure and several olive oil mills. Draguignan is also the site of the dolmen “La Pierre de la Fee”, classed as a historical monument and dating from the Neolithic. It is a lively town, with many arts and culture events throughout the year (plays, exhibitions, cinema screenings, concerts, dance, jazz and wine festivals, singing competitions...).

Activities
Cycling is a popular sport here and Draguignan was even on the 2009 Tour de France route. There are also several interesting hiking paths worth exploring and facilities for horse riding, swimming, stadiums for athletics, and clubs for martial arts, badminton, bowling, canoe-kayaking, dance, fencing and football. The coast is half an hour away it water sports take your fancy (diving, sailing, yachting, water skiing etc).

Local food and specialities
Fresh local produce includes olive oil, honey, tomatoes, peaches, garlic and herbs, fish, mussels, wild boar, truffles. Daube de Sanglier (wild boar) a la Provencale is a traditional autumn stew and fish dishes are also popular- bouillabaisse (fish stew), or escabeche (fish marinated in citrus juice). Provencal wines include full-bodied reds and roses from around Bando.
