A few minutes from Grignan and only a few steps from Taulignan, in an environment of great beauty where vineyards meet fields of lavender, this property is unquestionably among the most remarkable addresses of the Drôme Provençale. Behind its stone facades weathered by time, this exceptional residence reveals a rare universe, shaped by the requirement, refinement and authenticity. Completely restored over the years with a level of quality rarely encountered, the property deploys more than 550 m2 in an intimate area where every perspective, material and detail have been designed to cross time with elegance. The main bastide offers a succession of warm and refined volumes. The reception areas reveal themselves naturally, between vast living rooms, a characterful kitchen, fireplace, and spectacular summer dining room opening onto the gardens. The suites, generous and bright, offer a comfort worthy of the most beautiful private houses. Outside, the sweetness of life in Provence takes on its full dimension. A majestic avenue of plane trees. The enclosed gardens, carefully designed, house an olive grove, multiple relaxation areas and an elegant swimming pool perfectly integrated into its environment. The independent guest house is in itself a prestigious residence. Its impressive reception room of more than 110 m 2, enhanced by its stone floors and fireplace Taulignan, welcomes family and guests in absolute comfort. Even more confidential, the converted pigeon loft offers a charming refuge, suspended between sky and countryside. Everywhere, authenticity is expressed through a remarkable selection of ancient materials: noble stones, original staircases, exposed beams, solid oak floors, old cement tiles and ironwork made in the rules of art. The technical services meet the most demanding standards: ground heating by geothermal energy, double drilling, fiber optic, automated gate, wine cellar, garages, workshop and many outbuildings. But beyond its characteristics, it is above all the atmosphere that distinguishes this property. An atmosphere that has become rare. That of large family homes where heritage dialogues with the art of living, where silence is disturbed only by the song of cicadas and where each season composes a new painting. A confidential property. A collection address. An exceptional place for those who seek the inimitable.
