Description
Abriculteurs is pleased to present this prestigious house for sale, located in Bouc-Bel-Air (13320).
At the doorstep of Aix-en-Provence and the IBS International School, this exceptional 395 sqm bastide combines history and modernity. Former hunting lodge of the Albertas Gardens, built in 1810, the residence benefits from a remarkable renovation that enhances its original stones, high ceilings, and period fireplaces. Sheltered from view behind imposing 2.5-meter-high walls, the estate unfolds in the heart of a landscaped 1,580 sqm park shaded by centuries-old trees.
The Main Residence: A Provençal Way of Life
Thanks to its period stone walls offering excellent natural thermal inertia, the bastide maintains a pleasant coolness throughout the summer.
The ground floor is organized around spectacular reception areas:
• Reception Spaces: A suite of 5 cozy sitting rooms (including a music/TV room) and two formal dining rooms.
• Stained Glass Extensions: The house has been enhanced with two superb extensions featuring custom-made artistic stained glass windows crafted by a local artisan. These light-filled rooms provide an exceptional indoor-outdoor transition space, perfect for enjoying the garden all year round.
• Epicurean Kitchen: A high-end dining kitchen fully equipped, extended by a pantry, laundry room, and vaulted wine cellar.
• Work Area: A large private office (fiber optic installed).
• Technical: Efficient gas central heating managed by two independent boilers, ensuring optimal temperature control.
The upper floors, dedicated to privacy, offer a remarkable layout where each sleeping area enjoys autonomy:
• First Floor: 2 spacious suites, a large custom dressing room, a landing office, and two bathrooms/shower rooms.
• Second Floor: An ideal space for children or guests featuring 4 spacious bedrooms (including one suite with an en-suite bathroom), a play/relaxation area, and a separate bathroom.
The Garden, Terraces & Listed Fountain
The 1,580 sqm landscaped park (equipped with an automatic irrigation system) is arranged around several charming outdoor spaces, enclosed and secured by the property's high walls:
• Two Characterful Terraces: Designed to follow the sun's path or seek shade beneath the large trees.
• The Historic Fountain: One terrace is highlighted by a magnificent listed fountain. A true work of art testifying to the estate's prestigious past, its crystal-clear murmur creates a serene and refreshing atmosphere, enveloping the terrace in a gentle sound that invites relaxation.
• Swimming Area: A pool surrounded by wide sunbathing areas and an authentic stone pool house built as a genuine independent cottage, equipped with a shower.
Parking is easy, discreet, and secure within the property with 4 private parking spaces.
A Private Outbuilding: An 86 sqm T3 Apartment
