A Cosy Provençal House With 1.2 Hectares Of Lush Grounds In The Charming Village Of La

A cosy Provençal house with 1.2 hectares of lush grounds in the charming village of La Garde-Freinet in France’s Var department. The property lies five minutes from the village centre. Its 12,000m² plot is demarcated by a low dry-stone wall. A lane lined with cork oaks that leads to an old chapel takes you to the grounds. Beyond a wrought-iron gate, there is a vast, flat expanse of land. In the middle of this plot stands the Provençal house, surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation. Nothing spoils the visual beauty of the landscape. A parking area in the shade of majestic oaks can be used to park at least three vehicles. A court paved with natural stone leads to the house and its adjoining section, which serves as a garage. The rectangular house offers around 120m² of floor area. It has a ground floor and a first floor. It is crowned with a roof of barrel tiles, which is underlined with a triple-row génoise cornice. Most of the windows are rectangular and fitted with wooden shutters. They are positioned around an entrance door – an asymmetrical double-leaf door of solid wood with a wrought-iron knocker. A 36m² terrace edges the south-facing elevation. Sheltered from the sun by an arbour, this terrace forms a relaxing haven that looks out at the greenery. The ivy that covers the beige-rendered elevations and the architecture of straight lines – characteristic of Provençal houses – suggests an old edifice. Yet this house was, in fact, recently built. Indeed, it only dates back to 2012.
