Spectacular 18th century Bastide. Great shopping, dining and culture
minutes away in downtown Aix but the feeling of life in an authentic
Provencal estate with beautiful views of the countryside and absolutely no
neighbors in site is life changing. This property consists of the "maison
principal" built in 1803 with 2 foot thick walls, tall ceilings, ancient
flooring, original doors, windows and shutters. It is a truly an authentic
Provencal bastide, facing due south with 3 floors of occupancy. The
exterior grounds are georgeous. The main automatic gated entry slopes down
to the main house and 12.5 meter pool, then down to the tennis court.
Landscaping is mature and the 6 ancient plane trees in front of the Bastide
are truly breathtaking. These trees, 210 years old and majestic, provide
shading for the house from the summer heat. Extensive seating and
entertaining areas abound outside. It feels open and secluded all at once.
The property is quiet and very private. 15 minutes to TGV and 25
to Marginane (Marseilles) International Airport. Direct access of to the
house is via a very very small gravel road which terminates approximately
300 meters after the property. This creates a very private entry with
little traffic. Sorry no pets allowed. Read less
