Situated on a plateau planted with trees, on the way up a Tuscan-style path, this house dominates the Sainte Victoire site with its captivating, grandiloquent threshold.

The building, built in 2016, is a local imprint in the colour of ochre Bibémus, nuanced with neo-Romanesque styles, and is resolutely south-facing.

The atypical architecture comes to life around the patio, which is made up of green fleece on the facade, a cool place to relax in summer, and serves the annex, the main entrance and the garage.

A solid wood door, expertly crafted by a cabinet-maker, sets off the main façade brilliantly.

The first floor features a gallery terrace with a view of the Provence cross, sanctifying the massive, symmetrical roofs that run from east to west, clad in old patina tiles.

This architect-designed house has been well thought out in terms of space, using a combination of noble materials: solid wood for the doors and shutters, hand-crafted ironwork on the window grilles and staircase banisters, granite and other quality artefacts chosen with taste.

High volumes, fluid circulation, a highly functional interior layout, sober, elegant decor, outstanding equipment and, in particular, a major focus on energy resources and insulation.

The entrance is welcoming and bright, the floor surfaces of the house are mineral in white chalk colour, the kitchen bright and functional with high ceiling, fitted and equipped with quality essentials for the culinary arts.

High table in hammered Madagascar black granite.

As an added bonus, the kitchen has a storeroom.

The kitchen area is linked to the living area, with its west-facing terrace under a vine trellis providing soothing shade in summer, open to the beautiful sunshine of Provence in autumn and spring.

An opening onto the exoticism of an interior winter garden illustrates a bio-climatic sanctuary space of 20 m2 and 7 metres high, facing south.

A vast, grandiose living room, highlighted by a symmetrical, pearly wood roof structure.

The bay windows open out onto the terrace, and are beautifully curved.

The living area is open-plan, with a contemporary feature fireplace with wood burner.

The atmosphere is one of elegance, with a very spacious 47 m2 living area, shaded terrace and wrought iron trellis, solid wood shutters made by a talented cabinet-maker.

Care has been taken with the installation.

The master suite is on one level, with dressing room, bathroom and separate WC.

Upstairs, there are also 2 master bedrooms with built-in dressing rooms, bathroom and WC, with uninterrupted views of the Sainte Victoire and the unclassifiable conservatory, and an intimate study to the north overlooking the superb massif and the patio of the house, all in tiled partitioning.

The terrace overlooks the roofs and the two verdant massifs, the grandiloquence of the setting a veritable work of art.

The feasibility of installing a swimming pool and its location has been realised and budgeted for.

This property transfigures architecture and nature with its landscaped and stylised heritage features, aesthetic prints dotted with poetic flowers.

The annex could be converted into a studio or summer kitchen, or an independent business or workshop, etc.
