Just a few minutes from the historic centre of Aix-en-Provence, in the heart of a preserved and highly sought-after natural setting, this exceptional property offers a rare retreat where the charm of Provence meets the timeless elegance of grand family homes.
Nestled in a lush green environment surrounded by pine trees, cypresses and terraced gardens, this magnificent furnished bastide boasts generous living spaces, 7 bedrooms, several reception areas and extensive landscaped grounds with a swimming pool, creating an atmosphere of absolute calm and relaxation.
From the moment you arrive, the property enchants with its authenticity: warm Provençal-toned façades, weathered shutters, shaded terraces, abundant vegetation and open views over the surrounding countryside. Every outdoor space invites you to fully embrace the Southern French lifestyle, from lunches under the trees and long summer evenings on the terraces to relaxing moments by the pool and peaceful walks through the Mediterranean garden.
Inside, the home reveals a warm and refined atmosphere, designed as an elegant yet lively family retreat. Original materials have been carefully preserved throughout: terracotta floor tiles, exposed beams, antique woodwork, wrought iron details and character-filled furnishings all contribute to the home’s harmonious and authentic spirit.
The property is divided into two distinct wings, offering a fluid layout and numerous living areas ideal for a large family or entertaining guests.
The first part of the house features a fully equipped family kitchen enhanced by handcrafted blue ceramic tiles and a chic country-house feel. This central area also includes a boiler room, laundry room and spacious pantry. A staircase then leads to the main floor, where the impressive Venetian salon is revealed — the true signature room of the property — complete with an adjoining veranda. This spectacular reception room captivates with its generous proportions, traditional French ceilings, decorative frescoes inspired by Italian residences and its extraordinary lion-shaped sculpted fireplace, giving the space a truly unique artistic character. Extending from this level are two additional bedrooms and a bathroom in warm ochre and terracotta tones, visible in the photographs. On the lower garden level, a TV lounge or games room completes this wing of the house.
The second wing naturally extends the reception areas and includes an elegant fireplace lounge, a particularly cosy library sitting room and a bright dining room opening onto the garden-side terrace. Another staircase provides access to the wine cellar as well as the upper floors of the house, where the remaining bedrooms, shower rooms and a top-floor suite are located.
Each of the 7 bedrooms has its own unique atmosphere, blending understated elegance, natural light and Provençal charm. Some enjoy generous volumes and open views over the surrounding greenery. The bathrooms combine authentic character with more contemporary touches, including marble finishes, bathtubs and renovated showers.
The property is offered fully furnished and equipped, with carefully selected interiors combining antique pieces, contemporary elements and eclectic decoration.
Garden maintenance, pool maintenance (including opening and winterizing, as well as periodic servicing), water consumption, and household waste collection tax are included in the charges.
