Some residences are to be visited, others are to be felt. Just a few minutes from the heart of Aix-en-Provence, this exceptional property belongs to that rare category of estates whose elegance transcends centuries without ever losing its splendor. Two farmhouses built in the 20th century have been entirely reinvented by internationally renowned architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte in 2005, completed in 2008. This residence of nearly 1000 m2 embodies a masterful meeting between heritage and contemporary creation. Every intervention has been thoughtfully designed with infinite delicacy to preserve the soul of the places while offering them a timeless modernity. From the very first steps, the property reveals a succession of majestic spaces where light becomes a true architectural material. The volumes impress without ever intimidating, perspectives stretch elegantly, and each room reveals a perfect balance between refinement, sobriety, and the nobility of materials. The double living room with its fireplace invites to the finest receptions. The custom-designed kitchen opens onto a dining room that extends to a dominant terrace where the landscape composes a living tableau: the ancient roofs of the old village blend into a horizon punctuated by olive trees, offering a spectacle of rare poetry. Spread between the two buildings of the estate is a master suite with its dressing room and large private terrace, as well as five other generously sized bedrooms each with their own bathroom, welcoming family and guests in absolute comfort and an atmosphere imbued with serenity. The property also features an elegant reception hall, a wellness area including a gym and a hammam, as well as a caretaker's accommodation. The 3-hectare park reveals all the magnificence of Provence among olive trees and vineyards, as well as century-old plane trees where a spectacular 21-meter heated swimming corridor unfolds, a true invitation to calm and contemplation, as well as a boules pitch to satisfy the most demanding. The property has a garage that can accommodate 8 cars and a carport. Located in immediate proximity to the prestigious Château de la Gaude, the estate benefits from a privileged location, about ten minutes from the center of Aix-en-Provence, twenty minutes from the TGV station, and twenty-five minutes from Marseille-Provence international airport. Properties of this scale are infinitely rare and are aimed at a few privileged individuals. Contact André Araye at 06 23 91... for a potential visit.
