18th century period home situated in the Alpilles Regional Natural Park, just 5 minutes from picturesque Fontvielle. Overlooking a wonderful garden composed of two parts including a secluded pool, the expansive grounds feature the main villa with 4 double bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms, a detached guest house with two bedrooms, ensuite bathroom and a kitchen, and a romantic single bedroom cabin. In the Natural Park des Alpilles, tucked behind its own beautiful parc, this traditional "Mas" was refurbished into a provencal "Bastide" in the 1960s by a French family exhibiting impeccable taste in interior and horticultural design. American owners in the 2000s completed further upgrades including air conditioning and an elevator. Today it represents a property that is rare to find; a traditional main house offering 21st century amenities extending c. 3,300 sq ft with 4 bedrooms and ensuite bathrooms, as well as several living rooms. A white stone terrace of some 300ft in length surround the main house, leading to a lush garden with olive, plane and cypress trees. A particular feature is the illumination of the parc, setting the scene for evenings of dinner and entertainment in a serene environment. A smaller free standing guest house of approximately 800 sq ft faces the same terrace and contains two bedrooms and bathrooms as well as an independent kitchen and its own west facing eating area, overlooking the Rhone valley towards the town of Arles. A few steps down there is another smaller studio house in the middle of a separate rose garden offering a studio bed arrangement with its own kitchen and shower, a terrace with cactus and a bench, perfect for a romantic breakfast or reading Proust.. Ideal for lovers of culture, with Arles -being a European capital of culture only 15' away -and lovers of nature, with the property, uniquely located in the South at the foot of the Alpilles, a national park, hence well protected from the Mistral winds. Close to the Camargue, great beaches and beach clubs.
