Overview

Step through the wrought-iron gates into a world where time moves to the rhythm of cicadas and golden light spills across centuries-old stone—a **19th-century bourgeois house**, meticulously reborn in the hushed embrace of Avignon’s countryside. Here, among **1.5 hectares of whispering woods**, a **300m² masterpiece** stands as a testament to elegance preserved, where every restored molding, every soaring ceiling, hums with the quiet pride of its heritage.

The garden level unfolds like the first act of a grand symphony: a **sun-drenched living space** where the boundaries between indoors and out dissolve. The **open chef’s kitchen**, dressed in modern luxury yet anchored by the soul of Provence, flows seamlessly into a dining area and salon—each room framed by windows that drink in the **parkland views**, where olive trees and lavender nod in the breeze. A **generous en-suite bedroom** on this level offers sanctuary, while the **laundry room** whispers of effortless living, tucked discreetly aside.

Ascend the staircase, its polished wood worn smooth by generations, to discover **four more en-suite retreats** on the first floor. Here, the **original woodwork and ceiling moldings**, lovingly coaxed back to their former glory, cast delicate shadows in the afternoon light. High ceilings cradle the air, while **bespoke finishes**—chosen with a connoisseur’s eye—wrap each space in **unparalleled comfort**, where modernity serves tradition, never overshadows it.

Beyond the house, the **landscaped gardens** unfold like a living tapestry, woven with **native Provençal species** that perfume the air with thyme and rosemary. At its heart, a **heated swimming pool** mirrors the sky, its **pool house and summer kitchen** offering a stage for languid afternoons where time loses meaning. The **turnkey estate**, offered **fully furnished**, awaits only its next custodian—a discerning soul who understands that true luxury lies not in excess, but in the **harmony of history and grace**.
