Elegant and sweetly enchanting, this village is a gem, and this historical villa will make you feel right at home here. Beautifully renovated with stunning hilltop views, it's the ideal place to share and enjoy the life and charm of Provence. 

Perched at the top of the hill in a close-knit village, this 18th-century home has had an enviable spot for over 300 years. Little has changed with the classic structure which has been lightly modernized while still retaining its original character. Initially renovated in the 1950s under the guidance of the Swiss artist and painter Hans Berger, it was again faithfully and carefully restored in 2001.

Vertical and spacious, the home is laid out over four stories in total, with a staggered living plan ideal for large groups and individual privacy. Bright and sophisticated, the traditional character blends smartly with the eclectic selection of art and ethnic and antique decor. The graceful, central stone spiral stair makes a beautiful center piece and ascends through the home's bright, light filled interiors. Intelligently updated so that you feel the history along with comfort and convenience, many of the original features shine alongside the modern amenities. 

With five bedrooms and four baths over three floors, the house is divided in the middle with a modern gourmet country kitchen and pass-through dining area that seats eight. There are two terraces offering breathtaking views over the plains, the Luberon and the Alpilles from this privileged spot, along with views of the cobblestoned village streets below.

This home invites you into the past while welcoming you with a refreshingly contemporary and relaxing place to enjoy with friends and family.  

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

Stereo/audio system with CD player, WIFI, Book library, board games and table tennis. Full laundry facilities, firewood, central AC and heating.
