Description
Confidential in a preserved natural setting on the outskirts of Aix-en-Provence, DE FERLA is delighted to present for sale this remarkable late 19th-century Provençal bastide, whose timeless charm unfolds across nearly three hectares of beautifully landscaped grounds.
From the moment you arrive, the character of the property is immediately apparent. Golden stone façades, noble materials and the majestic presence of a century-old olive tree create a quintessentially Provençal setting, where authenticity and an art of living come together with effortless elegance.
Behind its distinctive architecture, the residence reveals generous proportions spread across 13 rooms, offering an ideal setting for welcoming family and friends in an atmosphere of conviviality and understated privacy.
The main residence features five bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, ensuring comfort and privacy for every occupant. Two independent annexes complete the property, providing three additional sleeping spaces and offering a range of possibilities, whether for accommodating guests or on-site staff.
Both indoors and outdoors, the property enjoys remarkable views across the surrounding countryside. Natural light accompanies every moment of the day, successively revealing the nuances of the stonework, the contours of the landscape and the ever-changing colours of the Provençal countryside.
The outdoor spaces naturally extend this privileged atmosphere. A vast stone terrace of approximately 400 sqm invites summer entertaining, leisurely lunches in the shade and long evenings with friends. Further into the grounds, nearly 130 olive trees shape the landscape and reflect the estate’s agricultural heritage and Mediterranean identity.
Set apart from the main residence, the swimming pool lies within a distinctive setting, framed by Roman-inspired columns. A secluded haven imbued with tranquillity, where architectural elegance meets the timeless spirit of Provence’s grand country estates.
The estate also offers further development potential, depending on the intended project and subject to the necessary administrative approvals, including the creation of a tennis court or padel court, or the feasibility assessment of a potential helipad.
Rare for its scale, character and exceptional surroundings, this property combines the appeal of a prestigious family residence with the qualities of an exclusive venue for entertaining and hosting guests.
Just ten minutes from the historic centre of Aix-en-Provence, its famous Cours Mirabeau, traditional markets and iconic addresses, the property offers a particularly sought-after balance between proximity to the city and absolute tranquillity.
A discreet and exclusive address for those seeking far more than a residence: a piece of heritage, an exceptional lifestyle and a distinctive vision of Provence.
