An 18th Century Estate And Its Outbuildings On 250 Hectare Grounds, With Vineyards And Olive

An 18th-century estate and its outbuildings on 250-hectare grounds, with vineyards and olive trees, bordered by a river and pond, near Brignoles. From a B road, a lane winds its way to the property’s entrance, indicated by a wide automatic wrought-iron double-leaf gate. From here, a tarmacked drive, about one kilometre long and bordered by pine trees, gently ascends to the dwelling, in front of which extends a cobblestone courtyard, shaded by multi-century plane trees.

Despite several successive extensions, the former farm from the late 18th century still exudes an overall cohesive and charming appearance, while the most recent addition, inspired by Italian architecture, dates back to the early part of this century. Currently featuring a floor area of approximately 750 m², the three-storey dwelling has been split into two distinct accommodations, separated by a perpendicular porch.

As for their exteriors, coated in orange-yellow plaster and cadenced by wide windows safeguarded by celadon green louvred shutters, they are topped with either barrel tile gable or hipped roofs, while, to the north of the property, several outbuildings, more recent, include areas used for agricultural or winemaking activities, machine rooms, as well as accommodations for the property’s personnel. Continuing on towards the south, the terraced grounds feature a flower garden, ponds, a swimming pool and its wide sunny patio, a pool house, a dovecote as well as an orangery; the whole immersed in luxuriant vegetation.

In addition, further to the east, a meticulously maintained vegetable garden, abuts two wrought-iron greenhouses, as well as areas reserved for flowers and other fruit trees. Extending over more than 250 hectares in all, the estate is bordered by a river, which feeds into a pond, and boasts a landscape alternating between mountains and small valleys.
