In the heart of the Canton of Fayence, a Provençal village house and its flower-covered patio. Most likely built in the 17th century as an extension of the old castle ruins and dwarfed by the Clock tower – its neighbour and elder by more than 200 years – the house built out of local stone has inherited a privileged space within the perched habitats characteristic of Provençal villages, where most of the houses are grouped together on a hill, known as a 'rocky acropolis'. From the promontory facing the house, a panoramic view embraces the Estérel and Maures Mountains as well as the rooftops of the ancient village, which has preserved a medieval aspect, presenting a palette of ochre and earth tones. The house is located on a quiet, sloping street, at the base of ancient ramparts. Its exposed stone façades, facing south and west, are pierced with simple casement windows and protected by wooden louvred shutters. Its characteristic sloping roof with barrel tiles accentuates its picturesque character. The building, with a surface area of approximately 150 m², has thick walls, which keep the interior cool during the summer months. The front façade, facing south, has five windows, while the western façade has three picture windows. A cellar of approximately 15 m² is located in the basement and is used for storage. A stone buttress at the base of the western side of the building, helps offset the street’s slope and forms a small private patio paved with stones at the entrance to the house, under which a cellar is located. This recalls a time when the village’s inhabitants would sit on their front steps at the end of the day to chat. A wooden door marks the front entrance while a second entry is possible below the street level, on the southern side.
