A 1930s traditional country house and its grounds of 1 ha in a prominent position in the Moyen-Var region. From the centre of the village, a main road winds its way along the river to the bottom of the valley. After approx. 800 m, a small tarmac road leads upwards to a lovely view over the valley. The property is on the left-hand side of the hill.
Past the impressive wrought iron gate, there is access to a car park for around ten vehicles at the rear of the property, hidden away from the house. There is a garage on the car park and another one outside the premises, just in front of the entrance gate.
The property comprises roughly 1 ha of terraced grounds. Mostly situated on the south side and above the valley, the grounds cannot be seen from the entrance and are only revealed at the foot of the house with its typical Provence colours.
A solid, long covered terrace, which runs along the ground floor of the country house, provides optimum sunshine whatever the season. Below, a swimming pool has been installed on the highest level of the terraced garden.
The building, mainly of three levels, is well balanced thanks to its great length, stretching from east to west. Each level has four arched openings, with French windows on the ground floor, small-paned windows on the upper floors, and semi-louvered shutters. The eastern end is topped by an additional storey, enhancing the impressive overall appearance of the building. Two balconies on the front elevation offer wonderful views from the first floor. Finally, a 2016 ground-floor extension, which houses a kitchen featuring large windows and doors, protrudes from the front of the 1930s building.
The facades are rendered in pink ochre, and the shutters are painted light blue. The monk-and-nun tile gable roof is emphasised by a two-row Provençal frieze.
