La Grande Maison Du Jardinier

This magnificent family villa offers privacy, space and comfort in abundance, and extensive gorgeous lawned gardens, filled to overflowing with mature trees, shrubs and flowers. An al fresco dining area, under leafy shade, set by a beautiful fountain looks out to lawns, lavender beds and clustered cypress spires; a fountain splashes soothingly on a sunny terrace; boules, table tennis can be played in the grounds; and, beside the heated swimming pool, a shady wisteria-covered pergola adjoins a well-planned pool house with a shower room, fridge and sink.   Within the innately welcoming villa, the large rooms are furnished in elegant country-chic style, combining beautiful antique pieces with contemporary facilities.

At the heart of the house is a multi-functional family room/library, where a grand vaulted ceiling and exposed stone walls now frame comfy seating and a home cinema, a pool table and an open fireplace. Bedrooms, (three of which are set in the heart of the property on first floor and two of which are accessed across the mezzanine level of via the ground floor) are furnished in charming Provencal style, all with en suite facilities. And while the kitchen is replete with modern appliances, the villa is only a five minute stroll from the village with five restaurants, bakeries, delicatessen, butcher and within very easy reach of a one star  Michelin restaurant. Further facilities are available in Lourmarin and villa is in a very central location for exploring the magnificent area of Provence. A magical property. Early booking essential.
