Exceptional 18thCentury Estate on 22 Hectares with Panoramic Views – ProvenceSet within 22 hectares of unspoilt Provençal countryside, this magnificent 18thcentury estate enjoys absolute tranquillity and breathtaking panoramic views over Mont Ventoux, the Monts de Vaucluse, the Plateau d'Albion, and the iconic rock of Saignon.The estate is accessed via a private 500metre driveway winding through beautifully landscaped parkland adorned with majestic centuryold trees, creating a grand and secluded arrival.The grounds extend across approximately 21.4 hectares, comprising nearly 10 hectares of woodland and garrigue, together with extensive lavender and cherry orchards, which could be converted into vineyards, offering exceptional potential for a wineproducing estate or an outstanding country retreat.As you ascend the hillside, the estate unfolds to reveal three separate residences: the elegant main bastide, followed by two independent guest houses, providing generous accommodation for family, friends, or staff.The property's exceptional amenities include a large swimming pool, a tennis court, a traditional Provencal borie (drystone hut), a garage, and several additional outbuildings.A particularly rare feature is the property's natural spring, which feeds a beautiful rock waterfall created in 1880 and provides irrigation for the estate's gardens and plantations.Combining historic character, exceptional privacy, spectacular views, and remarkable development potential, this is a truly outstanding Provencal estate in one of the region's most beautiful natural settings.
