Aix-en-Provence. Le Tholonet. In the heart of the most exclusive lands of Le Tholonet, at the foot of the legendary Montagne Sainte-Victoire, lies an absolutely extraordinary property. Steeped in history and emotion, this 16th-century bastide is one of those rare places that transcend time. Immortalized by the painter Paul Cezanne, who captured its light and soul on canvas, it embodies the purest essence of Provence. Offering approximately 420 m² of living space (nearly 500 m² in total), the property is centered around a main bastide of 335 m² and an elegant, independent guest house. From the moment you enter, the charm is immediate. The bastide has preserved its authenticity while providing discreet and refined contemporary comfort. The kitchen, a true living space, retains its period character with rare elegance, designed for hosting and sharing. It opens onto a spectacular glass roof, flooded with light, offering a breathtaking view of the surrounding nature and olive grove. The reception areas match the grandeur of the place: a large living room with generous volumes, ideal for entertaining, extended by a smaller, more intimate reading lounge, perfect for reading or hosting a piano. The sleeping quarters include five suites of absolute refinement, each offering this spectacular view as a backdrop. The office also enjoys this panorama. Outside, the estate reveals its full splendor, making it clear why this place inspired painter Cezanne. The olive grove, a true signature of the property, produces over 3 tons of olive oil, giving future owners the rare privilege of creating their own oil in the purest Mediterranean tradition. The guest house, completely independent, features its own kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom, with two separate entrances, ensuring comfort and privacy for hosting family or guests. A garage and a carport provide ample space for several vehicles. But beyond the amenities, it is the emotion that prevails. From the olive grove, the gaze wanders over Sainte-Victoire, offering a living spectacle at every hour of the day, with immediate access to some of the region’s most beautiful hiking trails. Just 5 minutes from the historic center of Aix-en-Provence, the location is simply perfect: both intimate, preserved, and connected to one of the most sought-after addresses in the South of France. A unique property. A story. A signature. This estate embodies all the hallmarks of luxury real estate in Provence. Contact: Nathalie Normand [hidden information] [hidden information]

Le Tholonet is a small commune on the eastern edge of Aix-en-Provence, defined above all by its relationship with the Montagne Sainte-Victoire. This is the landscape Paul Cézanne returned to obsessively throughout his career, and the quality of light here, sharp and mineral against limestone, remains immediately recognizable. The village sits within a protected natural corridor where agricultural land, olive groves, and garrigue alternate with historic bastides, giving the area a density of character that is rare this close to a major city.

Daily life divides cleanly between the countryside and the city. The Cours Mirabeau, the covered market at Place Richelme, and the restaurants of the Quartier Mazarin are five minutes by car. The GR9 hiking trail onto the Sainte-Victoire massif is accessible directly from the commune. The Château du Tholonet, a historic estate with formal gardens, is a short drive.

Aix-en-Provence TGV station, located at the Arbois plateau west of the city, connects to Paris Gare de Lyon in approximately three hours and to Marseille Saint-Charles in under fifteen minutes. Marseille Provence Airport is roughly thirty kilometers away, a drive of around thirty minutes depending on traffic, with direct flights to major European hubs and beyond. The A8 motorway provides straightforward access to Marseille, Nice, and the Italian border.
