Provençal ‘Bergerie’ Converted Into a Country House in the Luberon
This former bergerie (sheepfold) is nestled in the heart of the picturesque Luberon region, boasting panoramic views and unparalleled serenity, situated on nearly 7 acres of pristine land with no neighbours in site.
The main house, exuding rustic charm and architectural elegance, spans approximately 3500 square feet of living space.
The grand entrance hall leads to the cathedral lounge adorned with a comforting fireplace, and a spacious kitchen. Adjacent to the kitchen lies a vaulted dining room, offering a cozy ambiance accented by another fireplace.
One of the most striking features of this property is the incorporation of several Bories, seamlessly blending history with modern comfort.
These ancient stone huts date back to the 13th century and are typically found in farmsteads across Provence. Two of these Bories, accessible from the interior, add an authentic touch to the living space.
The ground floor also encompasses a home office, accommodation with a kitchen, a bedroom, and a shower room, all opening onto a covered terrace with a summer kitchen – perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining.
Ascending to the first floor, the sleeping quarters consist of three bedrooms, each accompanied by its own bathroom. Additionally, a fourth independent bedroom with a private shower room offers flexibility and convenience, accessible from both the first floor and the inner courtyard.
Some of these rooms also feature independent access, presenting opportunities for commercial activities such as a bed and breakfast or a retreat venue.
An independent apartment, situated close to the main house, awaits renovation, offering the potential for additional accommodation or guest quarters.
The allure of this property extends beyond its interiors, with the expansive 6.9 acres of park enveloping the residence in stretches of garrigue and local vegetation.
The pièce de résistance, however, is the idyllic 40-foot infinity pool, where one can bask in the warmth of the Mediterranean sun while soaking in breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.
In a world characterised by noise and haste, finding a sanctuary of peace and tranquillity becomes a rare luxury.
This Provençal bergerie, transformed into a captivating country house, offers not just a residence, but a lifestyle – one where the rhythms of nature dictate the pace, and each moment is savoured in quiet contentment.
Conveniently located just an hour from the Avignon TGV station and an hour and fifteen minutes from Marseille-Provence airport, accessibility is paired seamlessly with exclusivity.
