Aix-en-Provence, 5 Bedrooms - 300 m² House for sale

Fifteen minutes north of Aix-en-Provence, in the heart of the Pays d’Aix and just moments from Château La Coste, BARNES Provence presents an elegant Provençal bastide, nestled in an unspoilt natural setting, sheltered from view and from any nuisance. A rare address, where the authenticity of Provence meets the refinement of an exceptional property.

Built in 2002 and offering approximately 300 m² of living space over two levels, the residence delights with its generous proportions, fine ceiling heights and the quality of its appointments.

On the ground floor, a handsome entrance hall opens, on one side, onto a vast living space of around 50 m² combining a sitting area and a fully fitted kitchen extended by a scullery; and, on the other, the reception rooms, with a drawing room graced by a fireplace and a library sitting room.
A study and a passage leading to the upper floor complete this level.
South-facing, the living rooms are bathed in light and open out towards the gentle surrounding landscape.

On the first floor, a spacious landing leads to a superb principal suite, comprising a large bedroom, a bathroom with bathtub, shower and WC, and a dressing room.
This floor also features a second suite, made up of a bedroom with its own adjoining shower room.
Three further bedrooms, a shower room and a bathroom complete this floor, while a gallery opens due south onto a balcony overlooking the garden.
A layout conceived as much for the comfort of a main or second home as for the art of entertaining.

Outside, a broad terrace naturally extends the reception rooms and overlooks magnificent flat grounds of more than 8,000 m². Century-old olive trees, cypresses and fruit trees compose a Mediterranean garden of great serenity, while a fine swimming pool blends harmoniously into this secluded setting.

Several parking spaces and a carport complete the property.

The energy performance rating of B, together with low greenhouse-gas emissions rated A, reflects assured comfort and contained running costs; a rare distinction for a residence of this standing.

Ideally located, the property lies some twenty minutes from the historic centre of Aix-en-Provence, forty minutes from the TGV station and three-quarters of an hour from Marseille-Provence airport; a precious balance between privacy, nature and accessibility.

Authentic and discreet, this charming bastide embodies the Provençal art of living in one of the loveliest stretches of countryside in the Pays d’Aix.
A prestige property to be discovered in complete confidentiality, for those seeking an exceptional residence at the gateway to Aix-en-Provence.
