A place rich in history to reinvent with CASANOVA Real Estate Located between Vauvert and Saint-Gilles, in the heart of the Gard Camargue, this rare and unique property is a former monastery dating back to the 12th century. Witnesses of a bygone era, its walls still bear the marks of time, blending stucco and original stones. The building, once a rival to the famous Saint-Gilles abbey, has endured the centuries with character. It now stands in an old, preserved village, facing the Scamandre ponds, in a peaceful and authentic atmosphere. Generous spaces to renovate The entire property, to be fully restored, offers approximately 450 m² of living space spread over three levels. The ground floor retains two magnificent scriptorium rooms, remnants of its monastic past, as well as an office, a kitchen, a spacious workshop-garage, and a cellar in the basement. On the upper floors, there are a total of 6 bedrooms, offering large volumes and multiple layout possibilities. The sleeping area is complemented by 4 bathrooms, 2 shower rooms, 1 separate shower, and 2 toilets, plus a laundry room, meeting the needs of a large family or a hospitality project. Several offices and additional rooms enhance the property’s potential, as do the 3 terraces (one with a connection for a summer kitchen), overlooking the surrounding landscapes, ideal for enjoying the gentle Camargue evenings. An independent 19 m² studio above the garage. Exceptional potential on a private plot The entire property sits on an 800 m² plot, with two independent entrances through gates, allowing for various configurations or even the division of certain spaces. A typical tower, with its small terrace, overlooks the whole and adds extra charm. It is also possible to consider installing an elevator serving all three levels, thanks to a space reserved for this purpose. This extraordinary place, embedded in the region’s memory, awaits passionate individuals ready to bring it back to life. Whether for a main residence, a guesthouse, or a cultural venue, it appeals to lovers of history, authenticity, and unique projects.
