A 300 M² Provencal Country House, With A Swimming Pool And Enclosed, Tree Filled Grounds Of

A 300-m² Provencal country house, with a swimming pool and enclosed, tree-filled grounds of nearly 2,000 m², less than thirty minutes from the train station and airport, on the outskirts of Aix-en-Provence. Surrounded by vegetation, the property is set back from a main road, while, below, a wooded and protected hillside guarantees unobstructed views over the long term. Enclosed by walls and hedges, which helps safeguard its privacy, it is drenched in dazzling Provencal sunlight and, although integrated within a commonhold property, is still completely independent, immersed in peace and quiet and entirely secure. In addition, the former Provencal country house, the origins of which date back to the 17th century, demonstrates the art de vivre of Aix-en-Provence, combining classical aesthetics with southern elegance. Rectangular in shape, it features more than 300 m² of inhabitable floor area, spread out over three storeys, while its lime-plastered ashlar stone exteriors are topped with a traditional barrel tile roof highlighted by a double genoise cornice.

Featuring a massive front door made out of Bibémus stone and topped with the head of a cherub, which recalls the premises’ original residential vocation, its wood-framed, small-paned windows, symmetrically placed around the entrance, are safeguarded by wooden shutters, while, to the east, a conservatory was added, illuminated by large, iron-framed windows and topped with a rooftop terrace, which is, in turn, shaded by a pergola. It should be noted that two successive renovations, in 1999 and 2006, made it possible to combine the dwelling’s architectural heritage with more contemporary comforts, such as energy-saving insulation, a modern heating system and inconspicuous air-conditioning units.
