Why this property will seduce you

Panoramic Provençal View: Unobstructed sights from Dentelles de Montmirail to Mont Serein.
Preserved Medieval Architecture: Restored 13th-century tower, fully habitable and comfortable.
Independent Shepherd's Dwelling: Features an additional bedroom, bathroom, and small workshop.

A 13th-century watchtower, with panoramic views, a sheepfold, plunge pool and 7-hectare grounds, in the town of Venasque, 40 minutes from Avignon. A dirt lane, which winds its way between the tall brooms, traverses the property’s fan-shaped grounds, facing northwest, before ending at the top of this hillside, at 435 metres in altitude, where the medieval Tour du Pinet stands. Built directly on top of the rocky promontory, the regular-coursed, square stone tower stands out thanks to its authentic and massive architecture, which was wholly devoted to defending the village. Gutted and left roofless for decades, it was lovingly saved from complete collapse by its previous owner, a professional architect, who restored it from 1974 to 1988 according to standard practices, which not only focused on its aesthetics and formal purity, but made it fully inhabitable and comfortable once again.
As for its thick, solid walls, they enclose four storeys, the last one of which opens on to the premises’ true sentinel: a 550-year-old prickly juniper that provides a welcome and verdant touch to the tower’s rooftop terrace. From this flat roof, the views fully embrace the Provencal panorama from the Dentelles de Montmirail to Mount Serein, while, on clear days, one can see all the way to the Pic Saint-Loup.
Originally, life inside this tower was one of isolation and it would take two millenniums before the tower would replace its warlike vocabulary for that of peace, while the tower itself is an undeniable ode to inwardness, which here is devoid of any secrecy thanks to the fluid circulation between each of its floors. Featuring few windows and relying mostly on narrow arrowslits to provide natural light, the tower's massive fireplaces not only offer reassuring blazes during cooler weather, but extend the heat of the summer months to the very heart of the tower.
In addition, the tower’s surrounding patios are scattered with a variety of local trees such as green oaks, which shape and shade these spaces for relaxation, ideal for mid-morning naps near the plunge pool or al-fresco meals, while only a stone’s throw away, a sheepfold, located below and built up against the rock, contains an additional bedroom with a shower room as well as a small workshop.

House with pool and garden Venasque (84)

Nestled in the heart of the enchanting landscapes of the Monts de Vaucluse, this extraordinary property is a living testament to medieval architecture. An ancient 13th-century watchtower built upon 7th-century Saracen foundations, it has traversed the ages to become a unique sanctuary. Offering breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding valleys, the building has managed to preserve its historical charm and mystery while benefiting from contemporary comforts. The estate extends over more than 7 hectares of unspoiled nature, consisting of holm oak forests, fragrant garrigue, and Mediterranean flora. Acquired in 1970 by the parents of the current owners, this tower underwent a total and passionate renovation project, led between 1974 and 1988 by its owner, a renowned architect. With approximately 120 m² of living space, the property is distinguished by its rarity. Standing impressively at 17 meters tall, its dominant position at an altitude of 435 meters ensures total protection from any disturbance, while remaining close to the charming villages of the Luberon and Ventoux. The authentic stone structure is spread over several levels, optimizing comfortable living spaces. Ancestral elements and materials have been rigorously preserved: cut stone, vaulted ceilings, French-style ceilings, a monumental fireplace, arrow slits, etc. Ground floor: the entrance opens onto a functional hall, an independent kitchen, a WC, and a shower room. The first level: A 28 m² living room with 3.50m high ceilings; this vast lounge, graced by a masterful fireplace, creates a warm atmosphere and opens onto a small terrace providing access to the garden via external stairs. On the second level: a master bedroom featuring its original monumental fireplace, a suspended balcony, and an unobstructed view. The third level: A second bedroom with vaulted walls gives access to the rooftop terrace. The rooftop terrace offers a spectacular sight: an incomparable 360° panoramic view of the Monts de Vaucluse, Mont Ventoux, the Dentelles de Montmirail, and even the Pic du Loup on a clear day. The exterior has been carefully landscaped. The terraces and living areas, alternating between sunny and shaded, invite relaxation and contemplation. A reinforced concrete plunge pool allows you to savor this quality of life typical of Provence, lulled by the song of cicadas. In the former sheepfold, a bedroom with a bathroom, a workshop, and an orangery have been fitted out. The property is also surrounded by hiking trails, olive groves, and vineyards, making this place a true haven of peace for nature lovers. This historic watchtower represents a rare heritage opportunity for buyers in search of an atypical property, combining historical character and an extraordinary living environment in Provence. 20 minutes from Carpentras, 45 minutes from Avignon, 1h15 from Marseille airport.
