This recently restored 19th century mas is located just under 2 kms from the charming village of Le Paradou. The pretty garden, over a hectare in size, features a profusion of lavender and olive trees and boasts uninterrupted views of the Provencal countryside for which the Les Alpilles region is justly renowned. For those that seek the beauty and peace of the area, yet want to be within easy reach of local shops and the vibrant town of St Remy-de-Provence, this mas is perfect.
Once visited, it will be love at first sight. The property is reached via a small country lane and a very attractive meandering driveway. The 14 x 6m pool has a beautiful decking surround and a pretty pool house with 2 WCs, wash basin and BBQ. To the back of the property there is a garage and ample outside parking space. To the front and poolside of the south facing house there are two large covered terraces for relaxing and dining.
The interior of the house has been decorated and furnished with charm and understated elegant style. Bare walls, wooden beams and wonderful stone floors are mixed with eye catching splashes of colour. There is internet access, DVD, iPod dock and Sky satellite TV.
