This elegant 18th century house with 10 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms (7 of them en-suite) is located in Graveson, a charming village 10 minutes (10km) from Saint Rémy de Provence and 15 minutes from Avignon (11km).
The house can also be rented as a 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms house, or as a 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms house.
This beautiful house was fully renovated recently using the finest materials and finishes, while retaining the original details and character. The house has graceful volumes and proportions with high ceiling heights and original moldings and fireplaces. Other unique features include the marble staircase and vintage encaustic tiles in all of the reception rooms. Each room in the house has been furnished with a fashionable mix of antique and contemporary pieces.
The country kitchen is fully stocked with beautiful faience (ceramic) dinnerware and includes a top of the line Lacanche stove. Every bathroom has been modernized and refurbished with luxurious Horus fixtures. The library has been custom built. There is brand new central air conditioning in every bedroom.
This exceptional village house faces full south and the large walled garden includes a charming terrace for al fresco dining and also a swimming pool (heated when appropriate). The walled garden provides complete privacy for your stay and is filled with lovely mature trees and plants that flower throughout the year.
Graveson is a delightful Provencal village with a friendly community and vibrant local life. Being in the village means that you can do all your food shopping and errands on foot - at the local bakery (next door), the weekly outdoor market and the summer organic market, pharmacy, or supermarket (3 minute walk). It is an ideal place to make your base in the center of Provence, offering all the best of the region.
