About this property
Beautifully Restored Traditional Property with Heated Pool in Small Village
Beautifully restored, 3 bedroom 19th century property with stunning views of the Alps, private garden and pool located in the middle of the Luberon – ideal for relaxing, exploring and sport activities. Montjustin has 54 inhabitants, no through car traffic, no noise and no pollution. In the village there is a small club organizing weekly cultural events.
La Fenice is the original “mas” which has been carefully restored and tastefully decorated, with a stone fireplace and terracotta floor tiling throughout. The villa and the grounds, at the top of the village (the lane stops just past your back door) with incredible views of the Luberon national park were part of the old castle compound . The large garden opens into a panoramic view of the Luberon and the Alps. At an altitude of 600m, the nights in Montjustin are clear, beautiful and comfortable, even in the warmest summer days.
Two interconnecting stone vaults (wonderfully cool in summer) give the house a unique character. The kitchen, sited into one of them, has all modern amenities. The second stone vault is a combined living/dining room with open fireplace. Behind the kitchen there is a huge utility room.
There is ample living space. In addition to a combined living/dining room with open fireplace on the ground floor and a self-contained sitting or play area in the extension, there is a big upstairs lounge, also with Provencal fireplace, picture windows and doors on to one of the spacious terraces.
Outside, the quarter acre (1000 sq. m) garden offers panoramic views over the beautiful Luberon countryside and the Alps. It contains a 8 x 4m landscaped, heated floodlit pool treated with salt with night blanket, surrounding terraces and plentiful garden furniture.
Standard bookings are Saturday to Saturday. For other dates, please contact owner.

About the host
Hosted by Meir Yaniv
I am a computer engineer and my wife is a neuro-psychologist - now both retired living in Israel. We lived on three continents and traveled throughout the world.
We typically spend six to eight weeks a year in the house. We come in early spring before the season to check that our guests will have everything they need. Then we come again at the end of the summer to prepare the house for the autumn guests. Throughout the season we keep in close contact with both our local Property Manager and our guests to ensure that our guests are fully satisfied. And judging by the reviews, we are succeeding.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the Luberon area twenty years ago. Everything enchanted us - the views, the smells, the food, the wine. And the friendly people - unlike the Parisian waiters!
We purchased this property because it is suitable first of all for us and our family. It is located in a small village - private but not secluded. It is not on a main highway, but can be easily reached from a main highway. The house and the grounds are large and comfortable, the right size for a large family or two couples with children.
Since it is on a hill, the evenings and nights are cool even in the heat of the summer. And the views ....

What makes this property unique
What is unique about La Fenice? I would say that it does satisfy a broad range of requirements and interests. Great location for visiting a beautiful area with full of attractive sites. Comfortable house and grounds for relaxing and enjoying the views. Scenic village at the crossroads of the French national hiking trails system. Safe area (no through traffic) for walking around with children.
