Elegant 18th-Century Bastide - a 2.3-Hectare Provençal Estate on the Doorstep of Aix-En-Provence

Property Description

Just four kilometres from Cours Mirabeau, this beautifully renovated period residence is set within landscaped grounds featuring a swimming pool and private pond. The timeless charm of Provence combined with modern-day comfort and efficiency — all within less than a two-hour flight from many of Europe’s major capitals.
Some properties tell their story from the very first glance. This elegant 18th-century bastide, standing amid the peaceful hills of Valcros, is one of them.
Originally built around 1800 and now fully renovated throughout, the property combines the soul and character of traditional Provençal stone architecture with the comfort and performance expected of a contemporary home.
This rare balance is further enhanced by an exceptional energy rating for a residence of this period — DPE B and GES A — offering excellent energy efficiency and controlled running costs.

Over 360 m² of Living Space
Arranged over three floors, the main residence offers more than 360 m² of living space, with generous, light-filled reception rooms and six spacious bedrooms.
Warm and welcoming living areas create an atmosphere designed for both family life and entertaining, where the charm of the fireplace blends naturally with views of the surrounding gardens and Provençal landscape.
An independent 25 m² studio complements the main house perfectly. It provides an ideal space for welcoming guests in complete privacy, creating a home office, accommodating staff, or developing an exclusive guest-house or bed-and-breakfast activity.
A 60 m² double workshop, laundry room and wine cellar further enhance the property and offer considerable flexibility of use.
A garage, two additional covered parking spaces and parking for up to six vehicles make the estate equally practical for everyday living and for welcoming guests.

A Private 2.3-Hectare Estate
Set within 2.3 hectares of enclosed grounds, the property has the atmosphere of a genuine private Provençal estate.
A large open lawn surrounds the swimming pool, while a private pond brings an additional sense of freshness and tranquillity.
A vegetable garden, orchard and wooded area extend the outdoor living experience, creating a peaceful natural environment protected from view and offering complete privacy.

The Aix Countryside, Just Minutes from the City
The Valcros area offers the best of both worlds: the greenery, tranquillity and quality of life of the Aix countryside without sacrificing proximity to the city.
Golf facilities along the Route de Valcros, local shops in Les Milles, the Pioline shopping district and the Aix-en-Provence TGV station are all within easy reach.
The Mediterranean coast and its famous Calanques can be reached in approximately 30 minutes.

Provence Within Easy Reach of Europe
A major advantage for international buyers is Marseille-Provence International Airport, approximately 25 minutes from the property, offering direct flights to many major European cities: Brussels – 1 hr 45 min / Geneva – 1 hr 15 min / Zurich – 1 hr 20 min / Amsterdam – 2 hrs / London – 1 hr 55 min / Frankfurt – 1 hr 45 min
Provence therefore becomes remarkably accessible, whether as a primary residence, second home or international retreat.

The Aix-en-Provence Art of Living, Connected to Europe
The former capital of Provence, Aix-en-Provence is renowned for its elegant fountains, historic townhouses, the iconic Cours Mirabeau and the artistic legacy of Cézanne, forever associated with the nearby Sainte-Victoire mountain.
Colourful Provençal markets, the internationally renowned Festival d’Aix-en-Provence, gastronomy, vineyards and a distinctly Mediterranean way of life create an exceptional lifestyle — all just a few minutes from the property.
