Just a few minutes from the iconic village of Gordes, where time seems to stand still and natural beauty stretches as far as the eye can see, stands a majestic 18th-century château. Nestled in a commanding position, it watches over the surrounding valley like a silent sentinel. This exceptional property covers a plot of nearly one hectare, adorned with magnificent trees and more than twenty olive trees. The château, surrounded by a wooded garden where local species and enchanting scents intermingle, embodies the perfect harmony between heritage and nature. Outside, Provençal charm unfolds in a green setting, offering a preserved atmosphere and a rare quality of life. The château covers a total of 800 m², of which 200 m² have been carefully renovated, combining old-world charm with contemporary comfort.

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!
