I’d been looking for an estate in Provence for a long time.

Not a simple country house, but a place that tells a story, a landscape that can’t be reproduced anywhere else, a place where you can immediately feel the soul of the Alpilles.

That’s exactly what this property represents.

The domaine is located in the heart of the Alpilles nature park, between Les Baux-de-Provence and Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, just a few minutes from the village of Maussane-les-Alpilles. Here, Provence is untouched: limestone hills, olive groves, light, the wind blowing through the cypress trees.

The property extends over nearly 7 hectares of cultivated land: olive trees, lavender, orchards.
At the center of the estate stands a historic farmhouse dating back to 1654, now fully restored.

The restoration took more than three years and was carried out to a rare high standard. Everything was redone: roofs, floors, woodwork, insulation, technical networks, gardens and swimming pool. The entire project is covered by the decennial and damage-work guarantees.

The result is remarkable: an authentic Provencal mas, yet perfectly adapted to contemporary living.

The house boasts almost 1,470 m² of floor space, with impressive volumes and a layout designed for entertaining.

The reception areas revolve around a magnificent triple vaulted lounge on the garden level, complemented by a library, cinema room, wine cellar and tasting room.

The property also features a wellness area with gym, hammam and shower room.

The family kitchen is accompanied by a scullery, storeroom and cold room, as well asa fully-fledged professional kitchen with a large reception dining room, ideal for organizing dinners, events or gastronomic stays.

The night area features seven suites, including two master suites of over 50 m², and a separate apartment.
The garden level also allows for the creation of at least two additional suites.

The property also boasts a number of technical facilities, including a panic room, three laundry rooms, two utility rooms, twelve toilets, and ample parking space for over fifty vehicles.

A large multi-purpose room can also accommodate a catering area, a sales outlet or new suites.

But what makes this estate truly unique is its surroundings.

A huge plane tree watches over the house.
A canal runs alongside the façade.
In front of the mas, a large swimming pool with pool house blends into the landscape.

The surrounding olive groves create a backdrop that seems unchanged for centuries.

The estate now boasts 800 olive trees in full production, complemented by 500 recently planted saplings, as well as a field of lavender.
Production benefits from theVallée des Baux-de-Provence appellation.

Water resources are exceptional: two boreholes, a spring feeding a 100 m³ reservoir and a canal subscription. All crops are drip-irrigated.

In terms of energy, the property has two 24 kVA meters and a 120 kVA installation, with underground electrical networks, heat pump heating and cooling, and ducted air conditioning on the upper floor.

Naturally, this estate can become a large family home, where friends and children can gather around long tables under the plane trees.

But it can also accommodate a more ambitious project: guest house, gastronomic estate, art foundation or event venue. The PLU allows a change of use of up to 500 m².

Depending on the nature of the project, the acquisition may also fall within the scope of the capital gains tax deferral scheme (contribution-cession – art. 150-0 B ter of the CGI).

My feeling

What I love about this estate is that it brings together everything you come to look for in the Alpilles:

spectacular scenery,
a farmhouse steeped in history,
impeccable restoration,
living farmland,
and immense potential for those wishing to create a unique place.

It’s a domain for someone who’s not just looking for a property, but a piece of Provence to live in and enjoy.

I will be happy to show you this property and discover your project.
