Quintessence

Built in the 18th century, this bastide, nestled a stone’s throw from the port of Cassis, seems suspended between the vineyards, the stone, and the Mediterranean. Perched in a commanding position, it offers one of the most beautiful panoramas on the Provençal coast, where Cap Canaille converses with the contours of the Couronne de Charlemagne and the rows of vines that have always shaped the Cassis landscape.
 
 
Developing nearly 200 m² of living space in the heart of a 1,779 m² garden, this heritage residence reveals all the character of the great Provençal bastides: a sober and timeless architecture, generous volumes, a permanent relationship with the landscape and a light that accompanies each room throughout the day.
The ground floor brings together the reception areas around a bright living room, a dining room and a separate kitchen opening onto the garden.
Upstairs, five bedrooms make up the sleeping area, accompanied by a bathroom, a second shower room, a separate WC and an adjoining room.
Each room benefits from abundant natural light and spectacular views of the Cassis vineyards, creating a constant dialogue with the landscape. Part of this floor can be designed as a self-contained apartment, offering great flexibility for accommodating family and friends or for developing a complementary living space.
Outside, the terrace, bordered by its historic balustrade, transforms into a veritable belvedere overlooking the landscape. The garden, generously planted with Mediterranean species, suggests numerous development possibilities, where a swimming pool could naturally find its place as an extension of this architecture.
This bastide reveals above all a remarkable capacity for reinvention. The proposed projections illustrate a contemporary restoration respectful of its identity, where the nobility of the materials, the simplicity of the lines and the openness to the landscape reveal all the strength of its original architecture.
 
 
The potential for reinterpretation of this authentic 18th-century bastide, where the charm of the old lends itself naturally to a contemporary renovation.
