Historic 17th Century French Bastide Just Outside Aix-en-Provence

This property is on the market for €4,470,000, listed with Aix-en-Provence Sotheby's Realty.

Built in 1610 for a lawyer in the Parliament of Aix, the Provencal property is one of the earliest examples of French bastides built as a “second home” in the countryside, and has been formally listed as one of the most beautiful bastide properties in the Pays d’Aix.

The French bastide offers a peaceful setting, nestled on 2.47 acres of lush grounds with manicured lawns, a swimming pool, and ancient trees, and located just 6 miles north of the city of Aix-en-Provence.

The French bastide has been updated for modern living and offers 11 bedrooms of accommodation across 6673 square feet of interior space.
