Mas Julian Provence | Villa in tarascon
7 Bedroom Villa in Fontvieille, tarascon
Idyllic Setting near Fontvieille / St Remy for up to 15 people
This traditional 18th-century farmhouse was transformed and renovated into a charming Bastide (manor house) in the 1960s. It enjoys an exceptional location to the south of the Alpilles, offering a unique character with its approach through olive fields and a sunny, south-facing orientation that ensures natural light throughout the day while remaining sheltered during the Mistral winds.
The main residence, measuring approximately 227 m², comprises three reception rooms: an entrance living room with an impressive original fireplace and access to both the elevator and staircase; a large living room featuring a fireplace, high ceilings, exposed beams, and French doors; and a smaller living room/study that enjoys sunlight from morning until afternoon through expansive glass doors. A dining room accommodating up to 14 guests opens onto a magnificent south-facing terrace approximately 25 metres long. The ground floor also includes a kitchen, a scullery, and a separate WC.
On the first floor: a hallway leads to bedroom one with an en-suite bathroom; bedroom two, also with an en-suite; a master bedroom with a private covered terrace facing south-east; and a fourth bedroom, which has been converted into an independent apartment with its own entrance, terrace access, and bathroom. All bedrooms are air-conditioned.
The property spans over 6,300 m² and features a beautifully landscaped garden adorned with rose bushes, 17 olive trees, cypresses, and plane trees. The garden is divided into four distinct areas: the house garden, olive groves, swimming pool area, and ‘Mazet’ garden. A watering system is in place, drawing water from the nearby canal.
Crossing a small bridge over the canal, you will find a 12 x 6 metre swimming pool with a terrace and automatic roller shutter. The pool area enjoys sunshine throughout the day.
