House Valensole - 14 bedrooms - 904m²

The elegance of a Provençal château, the authenticity of centuries-old heritage, and the promise of an extraordinary lifestyle.

In the heart of Haute-Provence, on the edge of a picturesque village, lies an exceptional estate where history, architecture and nature come together in perfect harmony. Overlooking a beautifully preserved valley, this magnificent 17th- and 18th-century château embodies the timeless elegance and refined art of Provençal living, in a region celebrated for its lavender fields, sparkling lakes and charming hilltop villages.

Set within 6,609 sqm of landscaped grounds, the château offers approximately 520 sqm of living space, revealing magnificent reception rooms, several elegant lounges and nine bedrooms. Original terracotta floor tiles, marble fireplaces, authentic period features and expansive windows overlooking the gardens reflect the property's remarkable architectural heritage, with every room telling a story spanning centuries.

Complementing the main residence, several outbuildings bring the estate's total interior space to approximately 959 sqm, providing an impressive 14 bedrooms across the property. The former stables feature a magnificent 146 sqm reception hall and a spacious 130 sqm apartment. A beautifully converted dovecote and an independent pavilion complete this exceptional ensemble, offering remarkable versatility.

Outside, the setting is nothing short of enchanting. The terraced gardens, suspended above the valley like a series of verdant balconies, reveal formal French gardens, a romantic rose garden, elegant fountains and a water lily pond. A vast panoramic terrace invites guests to admire the breathtaking landscapes of Haute-Provence, surrounded by an atmosphere of absolute tranquillity.

Another truly exceptional feature is the estate's eleven vaulted water reservoirs, supplied by a natural spring reputed never to run dry, providing a rare and particularly valuable water resource in Provence.

With its distinguished architecture, generous reception spaces and independent accommodation, the estate presents outstanding potential for the creation of a luxury boutique hotel, an exclusive guesthouse, or a prestigious gastronomic and events destination, subject to the necessary approvals. Equally, it could become an extraordinary private family residence, designed for gracious entertaining and the preservation of a remarkable heritage for generations to come.

Located just 20 minutes from Manosque and approximately one hour from Aix-en-Provence TGV station, this exceptional address combines the privilege of a peaceful, unspoilt setting with excellent accessibility.

More than a property, this is a place of history, beauty and emotion — a rare architectural treasure offering the opportunity to write a new chapter in the heart of Provence.
