Modern 200 sqm villa in 3,000 sq m of land in Les Hauts de Nîmes

This modern villa, nestled in 3,000 sqm of drystone-terraced grounds, is situated on the hills north of Nîmes. Surrounded by 'clapas', the drystone walls typical of the area, it blends nicely into the landscape. A mix of timber and steel, its clean, slim lines are softened by a magnificent swimming pool following on from the terrace.

The 200 sq m (approx.) house has a beautiful 60 sq m living room facing the pool area and the terrace, where a pergola draws the eye toward the pool. This level contains a main suite and a study. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a bathroom and, to the west, a terrace with a jacuzzi. In the garden is a stone outbuilding containing a studio, a drystone hut that could become a wine cellar and another wooden outbuilding opposite the pool that could become an office or relaxation space.

A wide garage rounds things off. A lovely family home or holiday base close to a big city but in the countryside and close to Uzès, a city of art and history. Some sprucing-up will be needed to bring out the modern feel that the building shell encapsulates so well.
