18th Century Bastide in the Aix-in-Provence Countryside
The dreamy French bastide is located just 5 minutes from the city centre of Aix-en-Provence in the south of France, memorable for its charming tree-lined streets and stately squares, and known as the "City of a Thousand Fountains".
The Provencal bastide is dramatically set at the end of two plane-tree lined private drives (both listed on the local cultural heritage list) and surrounded by lovely terraces and fountains.
The 8072 square foot property has been upgraded for modern living with the addition of an eat-in kitchen, a wine cellar, and a cinema projector in the library.
The 15 room bastide has a large master suite and 3 additional bedrooms on the 1st floor, with another 6 bedrooms converted into 3 apartments on the 2nd floor, in addition to an artist’s studio space.
The woodland estate spans 12.35 acres and includes a 2 bedroom caretaker’s lodge, a dovecote, a swimming pool with pergola seating, and a tennis court.
