<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">Just a few minutes from the historic
centre of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, one of Provence's most sought-after
destinations, this elegant estate enjoys a privileged setting combining
absolute tranquillity, complete privacy and an exceptional quality of life. Internationally
renowned for its antique dealers, art galleries, Provençal markets, picturesque
canals fed by the River Sorgue and its unique atmosphere, the town provides the
perfect gateway to Avignon, the Luberon, the Alpilles and the Monts de
Vaucluse. Within this highly desirable setting lies a remarkable family estate,
designed to welcome, entertain and fully embrace the Provençal art of living.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">Hidden behind mature hedges and
orchards, the property extends across more than 3.3 hectares (over 8 acres) of
level grounds, offering exceptional privacy while remaining easily accessible.
From the moment you arrive, sweeping views unfold across beautifully landscaped
gardens dotted with olive trees, magnificent centuries-old plane trees and
expansive lawns, creating an immediate sense of space and understated elegance.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">Offering almost 700 sqm of usable
space, the house has been designed as a true family residence, where generous
reception areas are perfectly balanced with a practical and thoughtfully
planned layout. Every aspect of the home has been conceived for entertaining
while preserving the comfort and privacy of each guest.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">The heart of the house is a spacious
country kitchen, designed as the natural gathering place for everyday life,
flowing seamlessly into an impressive living room centred around a beautiful
stone fireplace. Large French doors create a seamless connection between the
interior living spaces and the terraces and gardens, allowing indoor and
outdoor living to blend effortlessly throughout the seasons.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">A second sitting room offers a
quieter, more intimate atmosphere, ideal for reading or relaxing by the fire. A
private study with an adjoining library provides an elegant and peaceful
workspace or reading room. Nearby, a charming pergola-covered terrace offers a
secluded outdoor retreat, perfect for enjoying the tranquillity of the estate
away from the main entertaining areas.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">Upstairs, a spacious games room
further enhances the reception spaces and could equally serve as a television
lounge, family room, additional library or children's playroom, depending on
individual requirements.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">The accommodation comprises eight en
suite bedrooms, including three comfortable ground-floor suites and five
further bedrooms upstairs. The first floor also features an elegant principal
suite with its own private balcony, together with a delightful children's
dormitory that perfectly reflects the welcoming family spirit of the property.
Eight bath and shower rooms ensure exceptional comfort for both family and
guests, making the estate equally suited to large family gatherings or
prestigious hospitality.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">The outdoor living areas are
undoubtedly among the property's finest features. On the southern side of the
house, expansive stone terraces unfold beneath the generous shade of two
magnificent centuries-old plane trees, providing exceptional outdoor living
spaces from the first rays of sunshine until long Provençal summer evenings.
Several outdoor reception and dining areas have been thoughtfully arranged,
allowing everyone to enjoy the estate at their own pace, whether sharing a
family lunch, entertaining friends or simply relaxing with a book.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">The beautifully landscaped grounds combine expansive lawns, mature olive trees, majestic shade trees and more intimate garden spaces, creating a rare balance between openness and privacy. The estate enjoys a wonderful sense of peace and tranquillity, further enhanced by far-reaching views over the Luberon and the Monts de Vaucluse.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">Just a short stroll from the house,
an elegant swimming pool measuring approximately 15 x 5 metres blends perfectly
into its landscaped surroundings. A spacious pool house naturally extends the
outdoor entertaining areas, becoming a true summer living space throughout the
warmer months. A private synthetic clay tennis court, which would benefit from
some updating, completes the leisure facilities and adds yet another dimension
to the property's exceptional lifestyle.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">The outbuildings further enhance the
estate's versatility. A storage building adjoining the southern gable of the
house, together with two substantial ancillary buildings currently used as
garages, workshops and storage facilities, offer extensive additional
accommodation and considerable flexibility for future use.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">Modern amenities ensure outstanding
year-round comfort and include heating, air conditioning, a private borehole,
Canal de Provence water supply, automatic irrigation, fibre-optic internet and
Starlink connectivity. The owner also confirms that the property is sold free
of any agricultural lease.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US"><br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">Beyond its technical qualities,
however, it is the atmosphere that truly distinguishes this exceptional home.
Nothing here feels ostentatious. Inspired by the finest Provençal country
houses, the architecture is timeless, the materials have been chosen to age
gracefully, and every space has been designed to encourage family life and
shared experiences. One can easily imagine long lunches beneath the plane
trees, children playing in the park, afternoon tennis matches, summer days by
the pool or cosy winter evenings gathered around the fireplace.</span></p><p data-start="330" data-end="991" class="PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer"></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal"><span lang="EN-US">Just minutes from
