Mas for sale in the Alpilles by our real estate agency in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence.

Traditional mas dating back to the 18th century, transformed and renovated into a small bastide in the 1960s, benefiting from an exceptional location in the south of the Alpilles. Its unique character lies in its access through olive groves, its south-facing orientation offering beautiful light throughout the day, while being sheltered from the Mistral wind.

The mas of approximately 227 m² comprises an entrance ‘salon’ with an impressive old fireplace, access to the elevator and staircase, a large living room with a fireplace, featuring large French doors and high ceilings with exposed beams, a small lounge/office bathed in sunlight from morning to afternoon with large glass doors, a dining room with French doors opening onto the magnificent 25-meter-long south-facing terrace, a small sitting area/office space with a fireplace, a kitchen, a pantry, and a separate toilet on the ground floor.

The property benefits from canal water and an irrigation system covering four distinct garden areas: the house garden, the olive grove, the pool area, and the ‘Mazet.’
