Mas Uzès (30)

Even if all the French villages have a history, there are some which you must make a detour to see! This small, typically Provencal village, with its reddish stone, lives according to the wise rhythm of the seasons and the harvests of olives, grapes and oak truffle s. This dramatic countryside has inspired famous authors such as Mistral or Giono, with its singsong accent and guitar notes which escape from the open windows overlooking the village square. Travellers stop in silence and retain their breathe…then leave like thieves with an air of music which has cost them nothing, yet revealed part of our heritage worth hearing. In this pure and pleasant countryside, with its sheepfolds, walls and dry stone shepherds huts, and only a stone's throw from the town of Uzes, the first Duchy of France, nestles this property which profits from careful renovation, using quality materials…The 1250m² leafy garden, enchanting to the eye, is enclosed by stone walls and has room for a swimming pool. The 232m² of living space sits above a beautiful 31.5m² vaulted cellar with original mangers, ideal for conserving wine, and a former silk worm nursery of 34.5m² (offering the possibility of two levels) .which could offer even more living space. The ground floor level features lovely living areas opening onto a large, south-facing terrace, a kitchen range under a roof with exposed beams, and beautifully blends the historic character with contemporary ideals of light and functionality. In addition, a vaulted 28.5m² dining room and a well-proportioned living room (46m²) with a wood heater, and finally another vaulted cellar. On the first floor, 3 good bedrooms (22,24 and 22.5m²), washroom and toilet, large bathroom with bath and shower (15.8m²). On the second floor, a useful space of 51m² as well as 2 large bedrooms which could become dormitories of 24m² each…all this can be discovered when turning a stone-paved path, behind a stone porch, at the foot of a former monastery…a charming place where time seems to stop! Agency fees to be paid by the vendor. A property selected by Botella and Sons (since 1989). Ref; 2010 Read more
