Between Montpellier, Nîmes, and the wild Camargue, a master house from the late 18th century, its courtyard, its garden, and its swimming pool. The master house, which was once part of a wine estate, is set in a quiet area, on the square of a small town in the Gard with around 3,000 inhabitants. The entrance from the village square is through a magnificent 19th-century wrought-iron gate, which leads to a stone path bordered by cypress trees that leads to the property. A more modern gate, which allows direct access to the garden by car, opens to the north of the square, on the left side of the facade. Built in an L-shape, the building follows a northwest-southeast axis. The main building, rectangular in shape, faces to the east. The entire construction occupies an area of nearly 500 m² and features a facade of certain austerity, with perfectly dressed ashlar stone foundations. The limestone, with an ochre blond color, was probably extracted from the nearby quarries of Pondres. The residence, elevated over two levels, is pierced by eleven rectangular openings, three of which are filled with large French doors that respect a meticulous arrangement. A projecting cornice highlights the top of the gable wall, marking a distinct separation from the sky. The roofs are two-sided tiled. On the courtyard side, each window or door, flanked by shutters painted in a "gray-blue" very characteristic of the region, opens onto a enclosure planted with shrubs of Mediterranean species (lavender, rosemary, and agave) under the protective foliage of a hundred-year-old cedar of Lebanon. On the garden side, the east-facing facade features a sand-colored lime plaster that perfectly matches the local stone. A double edge elegantly enhances the eaves. Completing the property and running alongside the dwelling to the east after a stone terrace, the garden, both mineral and vegetative, offers a dominant view of the surrounding hills.
