Une Petite Ferme Du XI Xe Siècle, Aujourd'hui Agrandie, Avec Un Terrain De 1,7 Ha Parsemé De Pins Et D'oliviers

A small 19th-century farmhouse, now enlarged, with 1.7-ha grounds dotted with pines and olives, nestled in the Var hillsides, near the Verdon Gorge. Less than five minutes from the village via a B road, the entirely enclosed property is accessible thanks to a wrought-iron gate framed on either side by walls, while, on its northern border, the building’s main structure creates a balanced composition featuring square volumes topped with pediments.

A small ancient farmhouse from 1808, it was renovated and extended in 2000 with a similarly inspired contemporary wing for a total inhabitable floor area of approximately 350 m². Facing south and overlooking 1.7-hectare grounds planted with pines, olives and other Mediterranean varietals, the dwelling’s two different sections, connected via an immense dual-aspect ground-floor room, convey the feeling of an impressive dwelling, featuring white lime-plaster exteriors as well as symmetrical windows safeguarded by grey shutters.

With ornate wrought-iron guardrails protecting the dwelling’s upstairs’ windows, the whole is topped with elegant gable roofs, which are, in turn, highlighted by a double genoise cornice, while immense gravel patios skirt its southern, western and northern exteriors. As for the one to the south, with its two plane trees, it provides a panorama of garrigue-blanketed hillsides and leads, via a stone staircase, to a lane bordered by cypresses and hedges. The latter provides access to a fountain, while the patio on the western side of the house creates an al-fresco dining area under the shade of a bicentenary tree.

In addition, behind the dwelling and to the north, a car park for several vehicles is located next to a caretaker’s cottage, whereas, beyond that extend terraced fields of olive trees, a pine forest to the east as well as a discreet masonry swimming pool, set back from the house and sheltered from view thanks to low stone walls and hedges.
