A trip back in time to Provence!
In the heart of the countryside, in the Luberon valley, on a 9,700 m2 plot of land, backing onto a pine forest, this stone house with approx. 191 m2 of living space and 340 m2 of buildings, built in 1990 by lovers of authentic Provence, plunges you into a film set … Marcel Pagnol could have filmed his movies here, near the covered well, the dovecote, the horse stalls, the bories, the oratory, in the shade of the fragrant pines… With its unobstructed view over the Luberon, the plain with its vineyards, its lavender fields and the hilltop villages, ideally situated between Joucas and Roussillon, 15 minutes from Gordes, this house to restore is full of charm.
The entrance gate opens onto the estate, allowing you to appreciate the different levels of the buildings, their dry stone facades winding around a paved courtyard with flowers… The volumes are interesting and could be reworked to create new, more spacious living spaces; a wing currently used as a garage/workshop could be converted into a telecommuting office, artist’s studio, relaxation area, independent bedrooms… On the ground floor of the main building, a small, rustic kitchen adjoins a convivial dining area with a fireplace and a sitting area. A vaulted room built entirely of dry stone is to be completely renovated.
A shower room, a W.C. and a storeroom, as well as a remarkable cellar for wine lovers, complete the atypical spaces on this ground floor.
Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms and a shower room with separate toilet, also in need of renovation.
The terrace provides access to the various areas of the vast garden: the swimming pool with its view, hidden behind a low stone wall, and its relaxation area ideal for discussions and aperitifs with friends, the tables under the pine trees for sharing meals to the sound of cicadas…
This south-facing house has real potential and can be enjoyed in all seasons… It is perfect for those who dream of living in eternal Provence.
