Exclusively offered by Sotheby’s International Realty, this rare property is available solely through our agency. Located to the south of Aix-en-Provence, just a few minutes from the historic city center, this exceptional property enjoys a commanding position that ensures absolute tranquility and sweeping views over the surrounding natural landscape. The residence offers nearly 1,000 sqm of living space, distributed across 18 rooms including 7 bedrooms, a library, expansive reception areas, a private cinema room, and an independent apartment for a caretaker. Meticulously renovated throughout, the property seamlessly blends historic charm with high-end modern amenities—roof, façades, and interior fittings have all been fully restored to offer contemporary comfort within an authentic setting. Originally built in the late 19th century as a hunting lodge, the house features remarkable architecture with its three original towers and a southeast/northwest orientation that offers protection from the mistral wind while bathing the interiors in soft, golden light at sunset. Set within a landscaped park of over 2 hectares, the property is surrounded by lush vegetation—bamboo, linden trees, eucalyptus, weeping willows—as well as terraced stone walls planted with fruit trees. The outdoor spaces provide an exceptional living environment, including a heated pool designed in the style of a traditional basin, a pool house, a large south-facing terrace, and a private tennis court. This rare property combines history, elegance, modern luxury, and a privileged natural setting.

Le Tholonet is a small commune on the southeastern edge of Aix-en-Provence, defined above all by its proximity to the Montagne Sainte-Victoire, the limestone massif that Paul Cézanne painted obsessively throughout his career. The landscape here is distinctly Provençal: pine forests, red-ochre soils, and dry stone walls framing properties that have stood for generations. The area carries a quiet prestige among those who know it, valued precisely because it has remained largely unchanged and resists the suburban sprawl that has overtaken other approaches to Aix.

The centre of Aix-en-Provence is roughly five kilometres away, giving easy access to the Cours Mirabeau, the market on Place Richelme, and restaurants such as Pierre Reboul and Le Formal. The Route Cézanne runs directly through Le Tholonet, passing the Château du Tholonet and connecting to hiking trails on the Sainte-Victoire. Daily errands are handled in Aix, a ten-minute drive.

Aix-en-Provence TGV station is approximately eight kilometres from Le Tholonet, with direct high-speed rail services to Paris Gare de Lyon in roughly three hours and to Marseille Saint-Charles in under fifteen minutes. Marseille Provence Airport is around thirty kilometres away, accessible in approximately thirty minutes by car, with direct flights to major European cities and international connections through Paris Charles de Gaulle.
