luxury mas with pool for sale Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France

At the gates of Sisteron, with the Jabron valley on the horizon, a Provençal farmhouse on a 1.3-hectare plot, its olive grove and its thicket. The entrance gate, to the north of the farmhouse, is accessible via a rarely traveled paved communal road, which serves a few properties and olive groves, without any overlooking. It leads to a vast courtyard that connects to a garage and the main entrance of the family house built in 1994 and facing south. The main facade opens onto a spacious summer kitchen, a true outdoor living space, with a terracotta tiled floor from Launes. Under a traditional roof with exposed flat tiles, the oak framework of Durance and the chestnut rafters form a beautifully crafted ensemble. From the courtyard, the outdoor living areas are only revealed by stepping back, using a covered passage between the garage and the farmhouse, or through the garden that runs along a thicket of oaks. A garden lounge is placed there. Located as close as possible to the first olive trees, a swimming pool, facing directly south and constantly sunlit, extends the views over the olive groves and the surrounding wooded hills.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A more than 140-hectare hunting estate with an 18th-century Provence farmhouse, in the Alpes de Haute-Provence area. The estate can be reached via a discrete tarmacked track that winds through the greenery to the entrance gate. Beyond the gate, the grounds of the vast, entirely fenced, 138-hectare estate, fully preserved from any hustle and bustle, are divided into two separate parts. An old edifice made from local stone and built in the 18th century can only be seen from inside the estate, tucked away in the centre of the first part of the grounds. The typical Provence farmhouse stands in the middle of meadows overlooking the valley. It is set around a central courtyard and includes several independent homes. There is a summer kitchen that is dominated by a swimming pool surrounded by a covered patio and a summer lounge, boasting a panoramic view over the Alpine relief. A second entrance on the Luberon side of the property can be reached by carefully maintained tracks. They also lead to almost 3 hectares of truffle oak trees whose produce is farmed and sold, as well as two lakes. As for the outbuildings, a large edifice contains several garages, a workshop and storage space for agricultural equipment. A well-structured kennel area is made up of twenty boxes, all of which are lit and boast a water supply. The water supply for the estate, which has become a crucial issue in southern France, is guaranteed by a 105-metre-deep borehole fitted with a submersible pump in 2020 that fills a 75-m³ water reserve equipped with a UV treatment system. Several springs and a traditional Provence stone well further enable the property to be self-sufficient in terms of water. The estate is connected to the electricity as well as telephone networks and also boasts potential for production of photovoltaic solar energy.

On the heights of the Jabron Valley, 10 minutes from Sisteron, a hamlet from the 17th and 18th centuries transformed into a lodging place. The property extends over a plot of about 7,000 m², organized around two distinct built ensembles in local stone, covering an area of more than 800 m². The complex, which dates back to the 17th and 18th centuries, underwent renovation between 2017 and 2023, preserving ancient elements and adapting the place for lodging activities. The terracotta floor tiles, several original architectural features, and the volume of the buildings have been preserved, while the technical equipment has been modernized to meet current needs. Access to the estate is via a staircase bordered by driftwood leading to an old central courtyard that organizes the circulation between the various buildings. Below, a covered terrace extends the living spaces for large tables during events. Water also structures the surroundings: a swimming pool set apart and a pond animated by a small waterfall in the central courtyard introduce a discreet sound presence. The outdoor areas feature varied vegetation, including fruit trees. At the top, a shaded wooded park houses a wooden terrace as well as an independent lodging in the form of a nomadic tent, designed for a stay in the heart of nature.This description has been automatically translated from French.
