18th Century French Bastide Set at the Gateway to Provence
The dreamy French bastide is set within a 17 acre estate featuring leafy grounds with landscaped gardens featuring an ornamental pond and fountain, and a saltwater swimming pool.
The French country estate is located in the heart of the Drôme Provençale, at the foot of a village listed among the “most beautiful villages in France”, close to restaurants and local attractions.
Considered to be the northern gateway to Provence, the Drôme Provençale region is abundant with perched villages, lavender fields, vineyards and olive groves, and provides the unspoiled charm of being off the tourist-beaten path of Provence.
Beautifully maintained, the French bastide features bright living spaces with several elegant reception rooms and 6 ensuite bedrooms.
It is accompanied by a stone farmhouse (‘mas’) which has been converted into a guest house offering an additional 3 bedrooms and a dormitory.
Ideally positioned for boutique tourism in the Drôme Provençale, the French bastide comes with a charming orangery featuring a terrace that overlooks the village, in addition to lovely terraces in front of the bastide for receptions, and an independent reception room suitable for exhibitions and seminars on the property.
A truly special property in the French countryside, just 35 minutes from Valence TGV and 1h30 from Lyon International Airport.
