A unique, centuries-old chateau and its terraced garden on the edge of a typical Provence village set in a regional nature park. A raised driveway bordered by hedges leads from the village to the estate. A wide wrought iron gate, framed by two masonry pilasters and topped by an interlaced decorative motif, marks the entrance to the property. The terrace in the upper part of the estate reveals a succession of buildings and the long eastern facade, as well magnificent views towards the valley in the distance. The scent of boxwood and roses wafts across the landscape, while the sound of trickling water can be heard in the moat below. Built in the 17th century and enlarged in the 18th century following the main stylistic principles of classical Provence architecture, the building was extensively altered in the 19th century with the addition of a corner tower and an aviary, giving it its current castle-like appearance. The various parts of the edifice, which have survived the centuries, thus present a unique appearance, somewhere between a bastide (Provence farmhouse) and a chateau. The complex comprises four different sections. Three of them have juxtaposed east-facing elevations with regular, symmetrical windows, while the fourth is set back behind its stone-paved courtyard and blue-painted wrought-iron gate and railings. The western facades have fewer and more discreet windows than the other elevations and are all aligned along a little-used village street to the rear of the buildings. The different materials used for the facades and roofs - coursed rubble masonry, brick, slate and terracotta - reflect the construction periods of the various buildings and extensions. The buildings are bordered by several terraced garden areas, benefiting from a water source in the village that is reputed to be inexhaustible. The upper level, at the foot of the château, comprises a rose garden with its pond to the south, a terrace with its water fountain and an impressive chestnut tree in the centre and, to the north, a formal French-style garden with its parterre of pruned box and a series of eleven vaulted ponds, fed by the spring and releasing the overflow of water at the bottom of the estate. A large field at the bottom of the estate provides a distant view of the valley overlooked by the chateau.

The castle Brillanne is located on the outskirts of Aix-En-Provence, on the gently sloping hillsides of the Puyricard plateau, well exposed to the sun and sheltered from the mistral, interspersed with small valleys which descend towards the Touloubre. Originally, La Brillanne was a construction whose traces date back to the 15th century. At the end of the 19th century, a floor and four square towers were added to the property at each corner, which gave it the name of castle, as well as a slate roof. Several successive alterations have gradually modified the original building, thus helping to give it its current architectural style, while retaining the classic exterior and interior bastide elements. Today, the property, built on a park of approximately 2.7 hectares, offers a real estate complex of nearly 1750 m2 of buildings, composed of the Provencal castle entirely restored in 2018, three new contemporary villas, a farmhouse to renovate, a fen and numerous annexes, horse boxes and a garage for 12 vehicles. On the garden side, the estate has retained all of its adjoining outbuildings, its wells, boxwood paths, gravelled flowerbeds, a wood to the east of the mansion, a monumental entrance with a wrought iron gate, which unambiguously indicated the power and wealth of the masters of the place, ponds (fed by a natural spring coming down from the Trévaresse), a wash house , and fountains. The park has many century-old trees, including a vast and majestic avenue of plane trees. To complete the outdoor space, a swimming pool, with impressive dimensions and the look of a Provençal pool, is nestled on the south side, sheltered from all nuisances. The Provençal author René Borricand, in his book Château et bastides du Pays d'Aix, evokes the castle estate as follows: “A typical three-story facade, generously pierced with five windows to take advantage of the garden; a roof with four slopes decorated with genoises, cornices of tiles whose number of rows indicates the quality of the owner (three are a sign of nobility, the owners had the title of marquis) and towers at each corner. La Brillanne, a property made of rusticity and elegance, simplicity and refinement, to come and discover with your Michaël Zingraf agency, Christie’s International Real Estate.
