Full Description
Just 30 minutes from Avignon Tgv station and 1 hour 20 minutes from Marseille Provence Airport, nestles a rare and poetic property, nestled in 2.4 hectares of lush greenery. Behind a majestic façade entwined with Virginia creeper, the estate opens onto an intimate courtyard sheltered by century-old trees, while a former 14th-century mill borders the river and its private beach, providing a truly unique bucolic setting. Built in the 17th century and expanded in the 19th, the château offers over 600 m² of living space and has undergone recent restorations that highlight its generous proportions and timeless elegance. Its spaces include several reception rooms, a private chapel, seven bedrooms, and numerous bathrooms on the upper floors. The attic, vaulted cellars, and mill all offer great renovation potential, giving free rein to the imagination to create new living spaces. Around the château, the outbuildings enrich the property: a separate, air-conditioned caretaker's house, a barn, a light-filled orangery with a jacuzzi, a dovecote accessible via a footbridge, a former washhouse, and other characterful spaces. The carefully landscaped grounds feature century-old plane trees, an olive grove, and Mediterranean woods, crossed by a relaxing path. A restored swimming pool and a pétanque court add to the conviviality of the setting. Whether a peaceful family haven or a high-end hospitality project, this château combines heritage, nature, and the art of living. This is a rare opportunity to acquire an emblematic Provençal residence, where history and authenticity meet modern comforts to write a new chapter.
