Description

This historic property, with unobstructed south-facing views of the Luberon, enjoys a coveted spot on a quaint cobblestone street, just steps away from the highest point of Ménerbes, one of the much-prized perched villages in the renowned Golden Triangle. A former convent, the property’s neighbours are the imposing clocktower and similar centuries-old buildings, gorgeous examples of the noble and ornate stonework of medieval architecture. The house is freshly redecorated, yet particular attention has been paid to preserving the authenticity of the property, such as for the lovely floor in the sitting room.

The property comprises on the ground floor: spacious entrance hall leading to the authentic stairwell; buanderie and cave.

On the first floor: sitting room of calming aesthetic simplicity, as befits a former convent, with its graceful arches, old double wooden doors, stone fireplace and tall windows looking out to the mountains; kitchen (with access to its own 20m2 terrace) fitted with wooden cabinets and granite countertops and equipped with a fridge, dishwasher, cooktop, oven and microwave; guest WC.

On the second floor: spacious master bedroom with its decorative fireplace and plentiful cupboards; bathroom with tub, shower, sink and WC; office space (could serve as a bedroom) with access to upper terrace.

Up a small flight of stairs is a further bedroom with shower and terrace, offering endless possibilities for customisation. Enjoy views over to Le Mourre Nègre – the highest point of the Luberon!

Amenities include: electric heating; fireplace; double glazing and wooden window frames; ADSL internet; mains water; mains drainage.

This is a unique property which has been lovingly maintained and renovated over the years, whilst retaining many of its original features including traditional tiles, doors and the fireplace. With three separate terraces and gorgeous views, this house, with abundant Provençal charm, is a must-have for lovers of French village life, and, of course, fans of Peter Mayle’s ‘A Year in Provence’.

About Maison Victoire, Luberon and Ventoux

Place de l'Ancienne Mairie 84220 Cabrières d'Avignon

Who we are

Founded in 2007 by Directrice, Victoria Templeman, Maison Victoire is a friendly, helpful and attentive bilingual estate agency based in Cabrières-d’Avignon, a pretty Provençal village in the heart of the Luberon National Park.

With extensive knowledge of the region, the Maison Victoire team’s professionalism and expertise is invaluable in ensuring an excellent level of service is provided to our clients. We are passionate about this beautiful part of the world and we make it our priority to find you the best property at the right price.

What we do

Maison Victoire was originally located in L’Isle-Sur-La-Sorgue - a town famed for its wonderful antiques markets and pretty network of river canals.

The agency manages property sales across the department of the Vaucluse, including in the picturesque hillside villages of Gordes, Goult, Ménerbes, Roussillon, Lacoste and Bonnieux as well as Mont Ventoux and, of course, L’Isle-sur-La-Sorgue itself. We can also search further afield to Les Alpilles, Avignon, Aix-en-Provence, and areas of the Mediterranean coast. And we can even help you find commercial premises, or an already thriving going concern for sale, if you would like to set up business in the area.

We offer a comprehensive property search service, tailored to your requirements, which allows us to match your criteria within our own portfolio and includes inter-agency search as well. (In inter agency search, the normal agency fee is divided between Maison Victoire and the agency holding the property, so the buyer will not pay any extra fees.)

Maison Victoire is always looking for innovative ways to provide our clients with the best possible service. So in 2020, we have launched our state-of-the-art Virtual Visits with all new mandates. This new digital service allows sellers to showcase their homes to best advantage and gives buyers an opportunity to “walk through” a property at leisure.

We help non-French speakers through the complex French property system and we can arrange translations and organise interpreters for a wide range of other languages.

Additionally, our comprehensive after sales service helps our buyers negotiate with contacts for removals, renovation or facilitate introductions to English-speaking locals.

Our Credentials

• Qualified and experienced in French property sales

• Fully matriculated and regulated under the French legal system

• We hold a “carte professionnelle”, meaning we can legally conduct the entire sales process without charging you any finder’s fee - instead, we take a commission on the sale
