Mougins — Quartier de Pigranel, The 12-Year Register

Pigranel is a quartier — a named part of the commune — on the northern slope of Mougins. This report draws it on the cadastre: sections AT and AZ, taken whole, threaded by the chemin de Pigranel. Villas only, from the state register of property sales (DVF, published by the French tax administration), 2014–2025. A sale that covers several parcels counts once, and every figure rests on sales checked one by one.

Market data

PIGRANEL — SET AGAINST THE COAST

36 sales in twelve years, and a €34.49M ceiling

What the state register of property sales (DVF, published by the French tax administration) records across sections AT and AZ of Mougins, 2014–2025

1
92 lots in 100 have never sold

The cadastre counts 303 lots of 400 m² or more across the two sections. Sales recorded between 2014 and 2025 touched 24 of them, so 92 in 100 have never changed hands. At that pace a lot here comes to market about once every 101 years.

2
One sale is 31% of all the money recorded

The largest sale of the series is €34.49M, on the chemin de Pigranel in August 2021, on a parcel of 13,192 m². That one sale is 31% of all the money recorded in the two sections since 2014. It lies at the northern end of section AT, under another cadastral place-name, Les Colles, and it is counted here because the perimeter is the whole section.

3
The middle of the market has barely moved

The median sale of the twelve years is €1.52M. Cut the series at 2021: 19 sales with a €1.50M median in 2014–2020, then 17 sales at €1.55M in 2021–2025. The middle of this market has barely moved while its largest sales grew far larger. Since 2021 the median sale here runs at 1.7× the median villa sale recorded anywhere in the Mougins commune (€894K).

4
10 of the 36 sales passed €3M

10 of the 36 recorded sales passed €3M, and 11 of the 28 parcels that have sold reached that level at least once. Two kinds of property share the same hillside: a few large ones that trade for very large sums, and family villas that reach the register rarely. Six of the 36 sales fall in 2025 alone, for €17.5M.

5
3 properties sold twice, one at 4.4× its first price

Three properties came back to the register a second time inside the twelve years, each one matched on its own cadastral parcel. The steepest is on the chemin de Pigranel: €1.50M in 2016, then €6.58M in 2023. Houses here are often extended or rebuilt between two sales, so part of that rise is the works and not the market.

303 lots, and 24 of them have sold since 2014

Pigranel is the northern slope of Mougins, and the name is the cadastre's own. The hillside climbs from the plain towards the old village, with the chemin de Pigranel as its spine and the chemin des Collines Pigranel, the avenue de Font Roubert and the chemin du Santon along its edges. Sections AT and AZ hold 487 parcels between them, and 303 of those have 400 m² of land or more, the size this report counts as a villa lot.

The clearest number on this hillside is a count, not a price. Sales recorded between 2014 and 2025 touched 24 of those 303 lots. At that pace a lot changes hands about once every 101 years, and 92 in 100 have not changed hands at all in the twelve recorded years.

The recorded depth is thin and concentrated. The register holds 36 qualified sales across the twelve years, with a median that has hardly moved: €1.50M in 2014–2020, €1.55M in 2021–2025. One sale alone, €34.49M in August 2021, is close to a third of everything recorded. Set that sale and the €8.00M sale of November 2021 aside, and the rest matches the scarcity: family villas that rarely reach the register, and the occasional very large property trading on its own terms.

Sections AT and AZ carry more place-names than Pigranel alone. The northern end of AT is labelled Les Colles, Vallon d'Aussel and Le Vicaire on the cadastre, and the two largest sales of the twelve years both sit there. They are counted here because the perimeter is the whole section.

Repeat sales are matched on the cadastral parcel, never on the street number: several distinct houses on the chemin de Pigranel share one number, and matching by address would put two unrelated houses together. Between two sales the recorded floor area often changes, because the houses come back extended or rebuilt. Where that happened, the price change includes the works and not only the market.

29% of the land carries no building rights

27 % of the land across Pigranel is classified as protected woodland (Espace Boisé Classé), which cannot be built on under the plan in force. Another 29 % lies in agricultural or natural zones with no development rights (PLU de Mougins — the commune's local planning code — approved 22 December 2025; cadastre). The scarcity here is written into the planning rules.

Year of sale and street only, never a house number. Sales from the 2014–2015 records carry no street and show as “—”. At the northern end of section AT the register uses a place-name instead of a street, shown here as “Les Colles (lieu-dit)”.

What these figures give for one property: a valuation in 48 hours

This report covers the whole perimeter. Our agency also values a single property, with the same method and the same official sources an expert immobilier works from: the state's register of sales, the cadastre, and the local plan.

One of our agents visits to appraise the view, the garden, and the quality of the construction and the finishes. You receive an avis de valeur (a written valuation opinion) within 48 hours, with every comparable sale named and traceable to its registered deed.

How these figures were built, and where they stop. The perimeter is drawn on the cadastre: sections AT and AZ of Mougins, taken whole. Streets running along the edge of those sections are in, and nothing outside them is. The two sections carry other place-names besides Pigranel, among them Les Colles, Vallon d'Aussel and Le Vicaire at the northern end of AT, where the two largest sales of the series sit. One sale often enters the register as several rows, one for each parcel it covers; rows sharing the same date and price count as one sale. Four of the sales counted here also appear in our Le Redon / Les Colles report, which reaches into section AT for the thirty parcels along the private allée du Redon. Two deliberate perimeters over one register, and each counts a sale once. One of the four is the €8.00M sale of November 2021, recorded under the place-name Les Colles. Repeat sales are matched on the cadastral parcel, never on the street number, because Pigranel's rural numbering gives one street number to several distinct houses. The count of 303 villa-scale lots uses cadastral parcel area (contenance), never the register's own land field, and one property can hold several parcels, so the true number of properties is somewhat lower and the never-sold share is a floor. Every figure rests on transactions checked one by one before entering any average. The register records asset deals only: sales in company form (SCI, a French property-holding company) never appear, and properties of this size often trade that way, so the register understates this market's true depth. Recorded built areas may cover only part of a property, and no price per square metre is printed. The 2014–2015 records carry no street address, so those sales are attributed by cadastral parcel. The figures run to 31 December 2025; the tax administration publishes the register in instalments, and a sale registered late appears in a later edition.
