Near Uzès, in the sun-drenched lands of the South, lies a splendid and picturesque village surrounded by natural bushland, which seems suspended between heaven and earth. Its name evokes the gentle Provençal lifestyle and the timeless elegance of a certain Roman influence, with its subtly coloured houses, a mixture of terracotta and stone gilded by the centuries. On the hillside, this Provençal gem is like a work of art, overlooking unspoilt wilderness where centuries old olive trees and vineyards blend into the landscape. Below, the Gardon River, like a silver ribbon, meanders gently, offering bucolic walks throughout the seasons. Its banks, the “Gorges du Gardon” (a UNESCO and NATURA 2000 heritage site), are covered with lush vegetation that changes colour with the seasons, from bright greens to deep reds in autumn. Every corner of the village tells a story, every stone bears the imprint of a Provençal and Roman past, where the art of living is sacred. In this enchanting setting, an exceptional residence, renovated with the utmost care, stands proudly. Respecting local architectural codes, it offers elegance, tradition and modernity, creating a true haven of well-being. The six spacious suites, each with its own private bathroom, are a model of refinement. Each one tells a story, with décor that has preserved the soul of yesteryear while enhancing the details: period woodwork, high ceilings, exposed stonework, every element has been designed to evoke the authenticity and charm of another era. The vibrant and warm spirit of the house can be felt in every room. The large, light-filled living room and library is a place where you can relax while listening to birdsong, a good jazz record or a little piano music. In the absolutely incredible kitchen, in winter you can enjoy the crackling fire in the monumental fireplace imported from a château in the Loire Valley. This extraordinary kitchen, with its huge pink and black velvet bench seat, 17th-century notary's table and sumptuous Italian floral splashback (Bisazza), is an invitation to conviviality, a space where every meal becomes a moment of sharing and pleasure. Outside, the flower-filled terraces offer breathtaking views of the wooded park, the hills and the Gorges, where the scents of lavender and cypress float in the air. The swimming pool, surrounded by magnificent period stonework, sparkles in the sun, inviting you to relax, while the Roman pool and fountain offer another timeless outdoor space, adding an extra touch of elegance to this idyllic setting. This house is not just a dwelling; it is imbued with a soul, a spirit that can be felt in every detail. Each stone seems to tell the story of those who lived here and loved living here, and the whole exudes authenticity, well-being and serenity. Finally, there are large outbuildings available, leaving room for imagination. Whether for welcoming visitors in an exceptional setting or for creating new living spaces, Collias, with its unique charm, is the perfect place. Here, everything exudes the gentle way of life, the calm and beauty of a timeless place, a true refuge where you immediately feel at home.
