This is a truly special place. Set in the privacy of a hamlet at the edge of the Alpilles, this beautifully renovated stone house is an oasis of calm, surrounded by olive trees, lavender and rosemary. The American owners have paid detailed attention in the years long renovation, creating a home with a sense of style that incorporates functionality, elegance and a respect for Provencal history and culture with décor reflecting the owners' love of travel.

Three bedrooms, three bathrooms. All bedrooms have fans, window screens and A/C. The main living, dining and kitchen area is open plan with the ancient stone walls and contemporary fans keeping the interior cool in summer. There is A/C throughout should the heat require it and a contemporary wood burning stove creates a cosy interior in the cooler periods.

The terraced exterior is landscaped to provide plenty of places to sit and relax in sun or shade with a plunge pool to cool off after a trip to the market, a bike ride or a walk through the Alpilles. The exterior terrace is immediately accessible from the open plan kitchen and living space and creates another dimension to the house. Enjoy the beautiful views from the terrace and surrounds of olive trees, rosemary and lavender. Dining table for 8, coffee table, and 2 separate seating areas with pool loungers and outdoor garden furniture. The house enjoys the privacy and beauty of the countryside while we have the good fortune to be within 5 minutes walking distance of two excellent restaurants. The nearby village of Fontvieille , 2 miles, offers a bi-weekly market, cafes, restaurants and a ten minute drive will bring you into the Roman town of Arles and a multitude of cultural activities, exhibitions, museums, cafes, restaurants and the world class LUMA tower designed by Frank Gehry.
