The 'Mas de la Brune', a listed, Renaissance-style gem, its 4 ha of parklands and its gardens at the foot of the Alpilles mountains in Eygalières. At the end of a row of two-hundred-year-old horse chestnut trees, three interconnected constructions comprise the buildings on this predominantly wooded, 4-ha property. The first is the Renaissance-style manor house, known as the 'Mas de la Brune', constructed in 1572; the only building of this type, standing in the middle of the land, rising up like a nave, proudly showing visitors the prow of its watch-turret. Directly adjoining the manor, a more recent construction dating from the 18th century stands in the shade of a three-hundred-year-old lime tree. This building once housed the staff accommodation. And lastly, on the east side, where a perimeter wall no doubt once existed, a rehabilitated farmhouse is separated from the manor by a row of cypress trees. Opening on to a vast courtyard that extends behind the French formal garden, it acts as a link with the rest of the parklands, where the permanent singing of the precious water, coming down from the Alpilles Mountains via the canal of the same name, can be heard. The French Historic Monument listing, dating from the 9 August 1924, applies solely to the 'Mas de la Brune', already showing on Cassini’s 18th century map under the name of 'Grand Mas'. Some say it was constructed for the consul Pierre-Bruno-Isnard, who gave it the feminine version of his surname, whilst others maintain it was for an alchemist, whose name is long forgotten. In both cases, this outstanding building, entirely constructed from Baux stone, was probably built by master mason, Gaston-Flayelle, native of the Vivarais region, who also designed the 'Hôtel de Manville' in Les-Baux-de-Provence. The size of the manor house, its biblical paraphrases sculpted on the façade, like a big open book, and including the secret number of steps of its spiral stairway tend to reinforce the hypothesis of an alchemist’s home. A spacious tiled swimming pool, cleverly concealed from onlookers in a copse of laurel bushes, has been installed a good distance from the main house. And lastly, a carpark, out of sight of the manor but able to take ten or so cars, has been laid out in the shade of mulberry plane trees.

In the heart of Provence, in a bucolic and rural setting, just a few minutes from Avignon and its TGV station, a beautiful stone castle of about 600 m2 set on a wooded park of 1.6 hectares. Carefully renovated, this exceptional property combines the charm of the old with modern functionality. The living area of about 170 m2 features a spacious entrance hall that leads to a dining room and a large semi-open contemporary kitchen on one side, and a living room and an office on the other. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a bathroom and a master suite with a dressing room and a bathroom that opens directly onto the reception area. This property can appeal to a family wishing to turn the reception rooms into genuine living spaces: large living room/library/pool table... or into luxury guest rooms. Ideal also for hosting a wedding chamber with the bride's arrival via a staircase descending to the garden-level reception room. For your private or professional gatherings, three magnificent reception rooms (exposed beams, stone walls, large bay windows, different atmospheres). A sleeping area with a bathroom for a caretaker, for example. A kitchen with catering access. PMR toilets. In the landscaped and shaded park with centennial plane trees, a traditional swimming pool. Two possible entrances via a beautiful driveway, ensuring total privacy. A strong event potential (weddings, high-end seminars, exhibitions, tea dances...). 'Its monumental entrance with its sculpted pediment and delicate bas-reliefs testifies to the craftsmanship of 19th-century Provençal builders. Every architectural detail, from the wrought iron balcony to the chiseled cornices, gives it a unique charm. The winged figures open the massive oak door under a stone arch, a beautiful place to receive the vows of the newlyweds on the castle steps.' This elegant residence would suit both an individual looking for an extraordinary living space and an investor (event hosting, guest rooms, secondary residence...). Immediate proximity to the charming villages of Vaucluse (L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, Châteauneuf-du-Pape...).This description has been automatically translated from French.

The current real estate property has a fascinating history, initially being a Templar Commandery built in the 12th century. Some facades and roofs of this property are registered and protected by an order dated August 5, 1976. Located in a commanding position, it offers an exceptional view over the Luberon Valley. This property, with a usable area of approximately 650 m², includes a main residence spread over three levels with a terrace and courtyard. It boasts magnificent reception areas, an equipped kitchen, six en-suite bedrooms, a former chapel, a wine cellar, a tower/pool house, and an infinity pool (15 x 5 meters) with stunning views over the valley. Each living space is harmoniously arranged, terrace upon terrace, bordered by plantings to maintain a natural aspect. At the back, there is a separate caretaker's apartment with two bedrooms, a garage, and a large storage room housing the technical equipment. The nearly 5000 m² plot, located in the heart of the village, is slightly sloped. It is entirely enclosed by stone walls and terraced. The landscaping is meticulous, featuring numerous plant species, grassed slabs, and an elegant basin with a fountain. Acquired in the 1950s by Parisians who restored it to make it their residence for about fifty years, the property was sold to the current owner in 2006. The latter undertook extensive renovations lasting four years. All the buildings have been completely renovated while preserving the original structure. The construction work was done using local stones, and most of the materials used are antique and of high quality (stone slabs, oak beams and frameworks). All carpentry is custom-made from solid wood and wrought iron, and all networks, home automation systems, elevator, sanitary installations, heating, and air conditioning are new. The Mouvement kitchen is beautifully integrated and functional, whether for private or professional use with a chef. The result is a unique property, offering an exceptional level of finish and comfort!
