Close to the Verdon gorges, in the Var hills, a small 19th-century bastide has been enlarged, set in a 1.7 ha park dotted with pines and olive trees. Less than 5 minutes from the village via the departmental road, access to the fully enclosed property is through a wrought iron gate framed by walls. On the northern edge, the main body of the building forms a harmonious ensemble of square volumes topped with pediments. The former small country bastide from 1808, renovated and extended in 2000, blends with a contemporary wing of similar inspiration, resulting in around 350 m² of living space. The whole structure faces south and overlooks a 1.7 ha park punctuated by pines, olive trees, and other Mediterranean species. The two sections, connected by a large open-plan room that runs through, maintain the coherence of an imposing building, with facades coated in white lime, punctuated by symmetrical openings lined with gray shutters. The railings of the first floor of the former sheepfold are adorned with wrought iron work. The two-pitched roofs and the double eaves emphasize their elegance. The south, west, and north facades are bordered by large gravel terraces. The one to the south, with its two plane trees, opens onto a panorama of hills and scrubland and leads, by a stone staircase, to an alleyway alternately lined with cypress trees and hedges. This leads to a fountain, while the one to the west creates a dining space in the shade of a two-hundred-year-old tree. At the back of the building, to the north, a parking area for numerous vehicles is adjacent to a caretaker's house. Beyond, the terraced olive fields spread out, the pine forest to the east, and set back a discreet masonry pool, protected from view by stone walls and hedges.This description has been automatically translated from French.
