Petit Juas is a quaint and old suburb on the hill overlooking Cannes from the north west. It is on the opposing hill to La Californie which overlooks Cannes from the north east. Behind Petit Juas one climbs further into the hills and into the exclusive suburb of La Croix des Gardes. Petit Juas is made up of little streets, many of them one way, and gorgeous houses which are proudly looked after and preserved. It is more “French” than La Californie and La Croix des Gardes which had a lot of foreign (English and American) influence a century and more ago, and some huge and wonderful villas and residences. Petit Juas is less imposing, and for this reason it is an up-and-coming suburb in Cannes. There is a great deal of building and renovation taking place and the character of the suburb is largely respected. We have seen values rise considerably in the area because it is very much in demand. A lot of young people live there because it is “vibey” and affordable, and very close to Cannes, considerably closer than our own suburb of Palm Beach in fact.
This “villa” or block of four apartments was constructed in the first half of the 20th century and the young owners live on the top floor. The building is on a small plot of land on a fairly steep hill, which is typical of the area. There is no allocated parking, so street parking is at this stage the only option. The entrance to the building from the street is through a gate at the back of the house – the east side. It is semi-detached, adjoining the house next door on the southern side – the west, north and east walls are not attached to another building.
The top (first) floor is a lovely, spacious, light and bright apartment and the owners have made a very comfortable home there. The three floors below are not inhabited and the owner has been renovating slowly, with limited results. All would benefit from a degree of thought and attention.
