Un Bâtiment Industriel Restauré À Bord De Sorgues

This magnificent 1,166 m² industrial stone building is a 19th-century former factory originally dedicated to the production of madder powder, then converted into a ramie spinning mill in the early 20th century. It is located in the heart of a 7-hectare park, part of which is bordered by the Sorgue river.

The original volumes, generous and punctuated by large round-arched openings, provide an outstanding foundation for a high-end rehabilitation project.

On the garden level,
- a large 400 m² hall showcases the raw beauty of industrial architecture. The riveted metal beams, concrete floor, and round-arched openings create a unique atmosphere in this concert space, which offers perfect acoustics for classical music and jazz.
- Once animated by spinning machines, this venue now hosts up to 300 seated guests for private concerts.

This space could be imagined as:
- an artist’s workshop
- an exceptional loft
- a gallery
- an atypical residence

A monumental fireplace heats the room through an ingenious system supplying cast iron radiators.

This hall connects to a reception area and a professional kitchen that open onto an interior courtyard enclosed by a glass roof on one side, overlooking a former branch of the Sorgue.

Each room here reinvents itself as a living space, event venue, and artistic residence.

A rehearsal room with a metal frame, wooden panel walls, and stone is located as an extension.

A stunning contemporary glass staircase with a panoramic view links the two levels of the residence and leads to a large room where the exposed metal structure, wooden truss roof, and parquet floor are visible.

This room serves five soundproofed bedrooms on the upper floor, each with toilets and a shower room to accommodate artists and musicians. They offer direct views of the countryside.

It also opens onto a majestic office that both separates and connects the two buildings, featuring a private terrace leading to the owners’ residence.

The main living area has its own independent entrance.

An entrance hall leads to a staircase that opens into a warm and welcoming space.

- An open kitchen flows into a dining room and a beautiful terrace linking to the office.
- Two bedrooms, a shower room, and a dressing room.
- A possible third bedroom with a bathroom in the mezzanine.
- A corridor/library space uniquely and elegantly follows the walls.

This rehabilitated former factory is unique in our region: it can be a place of life and creation where industrial heritage and contemporary art unite under a single signature—the one you choose to give it.

A ruin also remains to be developed...

It could be an artist’s residence, an exceptional loft, a gallery, an event venue, a concert or exhibition hall, or a very large family home full of character.

”A timeless place that will tell each person a different but never trivial story. A place to recharge, conducive to creation, reflection, and well-being.”
