Aix En Provence House

Aix-en-Provence occupies a singular position in the French south, a city shaped by centuries of intellectual and artistic life, where the cours Mirabeau remains one of the most architecturally coherent boulevards in the country. The city’s identity is built on its university tradition, its Cézanne heritage, and a density of 17th and 18th century hôtels particuliers that give the historic centre a consistency rarely found outside Paris. Les Pinchinats, on the northeastern edge of the city, is among the most sought-after residential addresses in the Aix area, known for its large properties, mature landscaping, and proximity to the centre without the constraints of urban density.

Daily life in Aix centres on the place Richelme market, the covered Marché des Prêcheurs, and the cours Mirabeau’s café terraces. Les Deux Garçons remains the city’s most storied café. The Caumont Centre d’Art and the Musée Granet anchor the cultural calendar. Les Pinchinats is a short drive from all of this.

Aix-en-Provence is served by the TGV station at Aix-en-Provence TGV, located approximately 15 kilometres from the city centre, with direct high-speed services to Paris Gare de Lyon in approximately three hours. Marseille-Provence Airport is around 25 kilometres away, roughly 30 minutes by car, with extensive European and international connections. Marseille city centre is accessible in under 30 minutes by motorway or by regular coach from the Aix bus terminal.
