Description

Located fifteen minutes from Riez and all amenities, at the gateway to the Verdon Gorge and just minutes from Lake Sainte-Croix, this *Bastide* sits in a pristine natural setting offering sweeping views of the Provençal landscape, total privacy, and absolute peace and quiet.

The property comprises a total living area of ​​696 m² within a single building organized into five distinct dwelling units, set on a one-hectare plot. The building's layout, accessible from both the upper and lower sections of the property, allows for the independent management of each unit.

The entire complex represents a high-potential renovation project in a booming tourist area.

The main residence: Fully renovated and in perfect condition, it occupies the central part of the building with a south-facing aspect and dual access, from the lower courtyard or the upper rear parking area. Entering via the ground floor reveals large, thick-walled vaulted rooms with high ceilings, an architectural style that naturally keeps the interior cool in summer. The living room leads on one side to the kitchen (also housed in a vaulted room) and on the other to the ground-floor master suite, featuring a bedroom and a shower room.

A staircase leads to the upper floor. Upstairs, one arrives in a large, bright, open-plan room that could easily accommodate an additional bedroom with direct access to a small terrace. The spacious, light-filled "cathedral-style" living room also opens south onto the terrace and extends upwards to a mezzanine, enhancing the sense of space and light. Adjoining this area, a small alcove, with more intimate proportions and a ceiling height of around two meters, offers a space to customize: a reading nook, an exhibition area, or a decorative display zone. A staircase leads up to the top level.

On the second floor, the mezzanine overlooks the living room below, bathing the entire area in dual-aspect light. It provides access to a suite with its own shower room. This level also houses the rear entrance, allowing direct access to the home from the upper parking area—a rare layout that offers true independence of movement.

The pool and outbuildings: Crossing the south-facing courtyard reveals a large 15 x 7m swimming pool set on a lower level.

A 17 m² studio, in good condition and ready for immediate use, opens directly onto the pool area, making it ideal for seasonal rentals right from the start.

A pool house completes this relaxation area.

The four additional dwellings: Flanking the main house, four additional dwellings complete the building complex. Each has its own independent entrance. They require complete renovation, offering the buyer total freedom to determine their future use, whether as holiday cottages, bed-and-breakfast units, seasonal rentals, or family accommodation.

Exceptional land potential: The one-hectare plot forms the current footprint of the *bastide*. An adjoining 80-hectare estate is also available for separate purchase but can be acquired as part of a combined package; this offers a motivated buyer the chance to significantly expand the project's scope, for instance, by creating a natural campsite, outdoor activity center, or agricultural operation.

The adjoining 80-hectare estate is available for separate purchase. Please contact us for details.
