Domaine Historique De 39 Hectares Avec Une Chapelle Classée Et Des Sources Naturelles

Between sky and earth, a true haven of peace with no overlooking neighbors, presiding over more than 39 hectares of contiguous land, composed of agricultural fields, forests, and vineyards, near the Rhône River. Ideally located, the property is 10 minutes from major highways and shops, 30 minutes from the TGV train station, and less than an hour from the nearest international airport. The panoramic views, surrounding nature, and serene atmosphere give this place a unique character, where time seems to stand still.

Description:

This exceptional residence, dating back to the 6th century, was built on the ruins of an ancient Roman villa. Over the centuries, it served as a monastery, then a hunting lodge, before belonging to the Lord of Orange. A living testament to a spiritual and historical past, the estate also preserves the remnants of an ancient Roman road, still visible in places, which once crossed these lands.

Across this vast estate crossed by two natural springs stands an 11th-century chapel, consecrated and listed on the Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments.
It is distinguished by its interior balcony overlooking the nave, its serene and contemplative atmosphere, an independent library space, and its picturesque access via a cobbled path preceded by ancient stone steps.
This sanctuary is one of the true jewels of the estate.

After passing through the entrance gate, an inner courtyard opens around a majestic plane tree.
The buildings span approximately 710 m², including 430 m² of living space, comprising an independent caretaker’s house in a square tower, arranged as a 70 m² duplex.

The main residence is distinguished by its timeless charm and authenticity:

Three kitchens, including a splendid glass-walled kitchen opening onto the courtyard, a second in the Louis XIV style with a wood-burning stove and a stone vegetable sink, and a third serving as a pantry.
A 50 m² living room with exposed beams and a magnificent 16th-century stone fireplace equipped with an insert and an old stone sink.
A 28 m² dining room with a French-style ceiling.
A climate-controlled wine cellar with a capacity of approximately 1,200 bottles.

From the entrance, a magnificent stone staircase, adorned with an ornate wrought-iron railing and precious wood paneling on the upper floors, leads to three spacious suites, one of which includes a study and a boudoir.
The second level houses a fourth suite, a reading nook, a sleeping area with two beds, and a large attic.

Outside, an old 100 m² sheepfold (potentially offering 200 m² over two levels), an 83 m² sheltered garage, an 80 m² canopy, and a bread oven—a true seigneurial privilege of the era, a symbol of rank and prestige attesting to the estate’s vibrant and authentic character.
The former irrigation basin, now transformed into a large 12m x 8m swimming pool, is fed by an inexhaustible spring. Surrounded by a vast terrace and a large flat area, once a prayer path, bordered by stone columns evoking the nobility of the past.

The entire property is supplied with pure spring water from a well whose flow has never faltered for centuries, a rare and precious privilege in our time. It is even said that “a majestic 600-year-old oak watches over the property,” a symbol of strength and longevity.

Our opinion:

More than a residence, this property is a significant historical and spiritual site, an ancient monastery where every stone tells a fragment of Provençal heritage.
Its 6th-century origins, its consecrated chapel with its interior balcony, its Roman road, its eternal springs, and its seigneurial bread oven give this estate a unique aura, blending memory and eternity.
In this region bathed in Mediterranean light, acquiring such a property means becoming the guardian of a rare heritage, where elegance, nature, and serenity unite in perfect harmony.
