Discover a refined retreat in the heart of Provence, where history meets absolute comfort and perfect accessibility. Built in 1753, this former silkworm farm (magnanerie) has undergone a complete renovation by an interior designer. Offering approximately 450 to 500 square meters of generous and light-filled living spaces, this unique residence perfectly blends the authentic charm of stone with decidedly modern comforts. This charming property boasts a rare location: just 20 minutes from Aix-en-Provence and 15 minutes from Marseille-Provence Airport, it is also a 400-meter walk from the village center and its unmissable Saturday market. A peaceful and idyllic setting, without compromising on accessibility. Designed for unforgettable stays with family or friends, the house embodies Provençal elegance through meticulous details and subtle décor. With its 9 spacious bedrooms, it lends itself to all family configurations or bed and breakfast projects. Amenities: Integrated air conditioning throughout the house for optimal comfort, underfloor heating, flowing spaces, and abundant natural light that invites relaxation. The outdoor spaces have been designed as an extension of the house, dedicated to sharing, games, and leisure. For relaxation, a superb heated swimming pool (ideal for extending the season in April-May and September-October) bordered by a cozy lounge area, and a pétanque court for lively late afternoons. For culinary delights: An exceptional summer kitchen, fully equipped with a griddle and an authentic pizza oven, promises memorable al fresco meals. Practical features: Secure private parking and an electric vehicle charging station. The solar panels make the installation self-sufficient during sunny days ✨ Whether for an exceptional pied-à-terre or a prime seasonal rental investment, this property is an invitation to celebrate the Provençal joie de vivre. Full details, photos, and viewings available upon request.
