Overview
Nestled within five hectares of whispering platanes and towering cèdres, **Château du XIXème** rises like a dream from the sun-drenched hills of **Beaumes-de-Venise**, its golden stone walls bearing the quiet elegance of two centuries. Built in 1815 as the retreat of Provence’s nobility, this enchanting domaine has been lovingly restored—not to erase the past, but to let it breathe. Here, the soul of old-world grandeur dances with modern grace, where **four-meter ceilings** cradle spaces of timeless allure, and every corner hums with the romance of a bygone era, yet hums with the comforts of today.
Step through the wrought-iron gates into a world where **1.5 hectares of manicured parkland** unfold like a living painting—dappled with light, scented with lavender, and crowned by a **sparkling pool** and an ornamental basin that mirrors the Provençal sky. The château itself, a masterpiece of **430m²**, unfurls across two noble levels: below, a **50m² salon** where firelight flickers against ancestral walls, a dining hall echoing with the clink of crystal, and a billiard room waiting for quiet evenings of strategy and laughter. Above, **five bedrooms**—each a sanctuary with private baths—culminate in a **50m² suite**, a throne of tranquility where morning light spills across original floors. Two more chambers hide beneath the eaves, their **greniers** holding secrets of generations past.

Yet the magic does not end within the château’s walls. A **360m² mas**, woven into the estate’s fabric, offers three distinct residences: a **180m² family haven** with four bedrooms, a **110m² retreat** for three, and a **70m² pied-à-terre**—each a world unto itself, perfect for guests, staff, or the whisper of future legacy. Beyond, **ancient écuries and ateliers** stand ready for reinvention, their weathered beams yearning for new purpose.
This is a property that **breathes history and possibility**. The air carries the scent of wild herbs and the promise of **Avignon’s culture**, just **30 minutes away**, while the **TGV and autoroutes** lie equally close—yet here, time slows. The **bucolic countryside** stretches endlessly, vineyards rolling like green waves toward the horizon, and the village’s **charming commerce** waits but a **two-kilometer stroll** away.

To own Château du XIXème is to claim a fragment of Provence’s golden heart—a place where **noble lineage and modern luxury entwine**, where every sunset paints the façade in honeyed light, and where the **legacy of 1815** lives on, not as a relic, but as a living, breathing **masterpiece of French heritage**. This is more than an estate; it is an **heirloom of the soul**, waiting for its next chapter to begin.
