House/Villa Description
With a long and fascinating history, this beautiful Provencal Mas is a true one-off. It is a long, Roman- roofed building of honey coloured limestone centred around a spectacular enclosed and part roofed courtyard. Built in the 15th -16th century on a much older site and enlarged over its history, it is set in a charming valley, under the shelter of one of the prettiest hilltop villages in the region; it is a few minutes from mediaeval Uzes with its fine shops and twice weekly market in the unspoiled delightful Gard Provencal. In true Provencal style it opens to the South with all the main rooms looking out over extensive grounds to the garrigue-covered hills and mountains beyond. It has been fully renovated and modernized but every attention has been made to keep the spirit and detail of this ancient place intact. ( In all it offers in excess of 600 sqm of renovated accommodation with 7 en suite bedrooms with a further 100sqm still to finish)
Approached along a long gravel drive, the Mas is an ensemble of linked farm buildings set around the courtyard and enclosed by ancient stone walls. In the farm house to the east of the courtyard the ground floor is dominated by a vast and impressive beamed and vaulted salon in excess of 100 sq m. with stone fireplace and huge windows with lovely views over the grounds, ponds and gardens; this is complemented by a second 40 sqm vaulted living room with log burning stove. In the oldest part of the house and retaining many 16th century features is a recently fully-fitted hand built farmhouse kitchen equipped to a professional standard; this is open-plan to a large dining room with an ancient inglenook- fireplace and a wealth of other original features. There is a spacious laundry room and linen store behind the kitchen and a garage beyond this. From the grand salon an impressive staircase rises to the first floor on which is found a 40 square metre master bedroom opening onto an East facing Terrace with spectacular views to the South and East and with a new en-suite bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms on this floor both with recently fitted bathrooms. On this floor, there is also an un-renovated 45 sq m room (the ancient silk mill) and part of a 60 m terrace. This is currently used as a workshop and store but it is full of historic features and offers huge potential for two further spectacular bedrooms. Or perhaps an artist’s studio with clear North light
To the West of the courtyard are 2 ‘towers.’ one an 18th century granary and the other the 17th century silk worm nursery. Along with a large vaulted space (probably the old fromagerie) on the ground floor, these have been elegantly converted to present three very spacious and well fitted apartments providing, in all, 3 double en- suite bedrooms, 3 living rooms and 3 kitchens. These are currently used as a thriving luxury gite business and can be sold as a going concern but offer enormous flexibility as family or staff accommodation. Completing the perimeter of the courtyard are an office and 2 large store rooms. There is plenty of scope to enclose parts of the roofed courtyard if needed providing almost unlimited additional space.
Outside, the 2.8 HA of land lies mainly to the South. The gardens are all cultivated organically and include a splendid south facing ‘English’ garden with upwards of 300 roses, shady terraces, Koi ponds, a large potager, herb garden with formal pond, a barbeque area and a walled Mediterranean garden safely enclosing the 11 by 5 metre heated pool. A small orchard is presently the home for a flock of English rare breed chickens. There is a 1 HA meadow stretching away to the South which has been preserved as a wild flower and wild life reserve 6 varieties of wild orchid have been counted in this field and there is a thriving colony of short tailed voles which encourage an enthralling presence of owls and hawks. The occasional deer and wild boar pay an occasional visit. There is also 1 HA currently under agricultural use but this is planned to become an Olive Grove. The mas has beautiful views in all directions.
The property benefits from mains water, electricity, telephone and broadband. There are 2 wells and a vast rainwater cistern under the house allowing free watering of the gardens.The Farmhouse is centrally heated by gas and has 3 log fires, the gites have electrical heating and geothermal heating and heat exchangers heat the pool and one apartment.
The equipment and furnishings of the Mas are available by negotiation and the gites will be sold fully equipped. and ready to operate. The business can be sold as a going concern if desired. Potential turnover figures are available on request.
