Comprising several traditional stone buildings with red tile roofs typical of the region, this complex combines historical character with high-end renovation potential. The origins of this property are very ancient, as the site was already inhabited in Roman times, as evidenced by the vaulted cellar. Later, it was the seat of a seigneury, traces of which can be found in 1470. Forty-four years ago, major renovation work was carried out to turn the dwelling into a main residence. After passing through a small wooded lane, you feel as though you have arrived in a peaceful haven, far away from the rest of the world. The typical buildings of the region, with their old stone walls covered in rose bushes, tiled roofs, square courtyards, dry stone walls and southern vegetation, including pine trees, holm oaks, fig trees and oleanders, give the whole place a lot of character. As soon as you step inside, you are enveloped by the timeless elegance found in old houses, with their old terracotta tiles, beams and fireplaces.
