Its countryside setting means there is access to canal water for easy watering, and wastewater is treated by phyto-epurassion (the plant complies with standards). A "Aiguier", a typical old well, near the entrance porch, is a reminder of how important water has always been to the people of Provence.
The building has a total surface area of around 500m2 and is built in a
U-shape.
A high wall pierced by a large porch links the two wings, forming a protective quadrilateral: this construction grouping all the buildings around a courtyard is emblematic of an era when farmers wanted to settle on the plain, at the heart of their farms.
Today, this vast courtyard, planted with trees and flowers, is a veritable haven of peace, sheltered from view and offering a cool, shady place to relax. It serves the main house in the left wing of the building, as well as a studio and 3 gites in the other wings, all with independent entrances.
In the former stables on the first floor of the farm's main building, various living areas have been fitted out: a living room/library with fireplace, a games room, a laundry room, a shower room, WCs, two wine cellars with gravel floors, one of which is suitable for wine tastings, complete these areas. Like the exteriors, the interiors sublimate the art of living in Provence.
The 170 m2 main house features a vast, welcoming kitchen/dining room on the first floor, with its large fireplace, old stone sink "pile", flagstone floor and antique beams. A corridor leads to a cellar, a sauna and a small vaulted shower room, with direct access to the garden and swimming pool.
On the mezzanine floor, a large, comfortable living room bathed in light with its 5 high-paned windows is centred around a central black contemporary stove, topped by a mezzanine (which can be removed).
This very convivial room leads upstairs to a large attic bedroom with walk in wardrobe and bathroom with a view of Gordes. On the same level, and also accessible via the courtyard, the 32 m2 studio has an open-plan layout, with a small kitchen, dining area and sleeping area, shower and separate WC.
On the second floor of the central farmhouse, accessible via the courtyard, a 60m2 gite offers a well-equipped living room full of charm, with its exposed beams, small windows and oculus. The contemporary bedroom is atypical, bright and highly original. A shower room and WC adjoin this room.
On the same landing, leading to the courtyard, a second gite of 44m2 features a kitchen-dining room, a large bedroom with a small TV living room, and an open-plan bathroom.
The last gite is the largest. With a surface area of 77m2, the kitchen is accessed directly from the courtyard. A living room and laundry complete the first floor. Upstairs are two large, bright bedrooms overlooking the courtyard and round-tiled roofs, a bathroom and toilet.
The tourist rental business has already been developed for several years by the owners, who have built up a loyal clientele thanks to their professionalism. This property can therefore continue to operate with this activity from the moment of acquisition.
This property offers numerous opportunities to extend and/or rethink certain areas.

Buying a Property in France
1. Signing the Agreement (Compris)
On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner.
The next step, once you are in agreement, is to sign the preliminary contract (Compromis de Vente). This is a legal document and after ten days will be binding on both parties. Rules change frequently in France and it is best to consult with your notary about when this period starts. Generally the compris will be signed in France with the Agent.
Variants can be included in the compris, for example an Acte (clause) can be added if the name or names to go on the title deed have not been finalised. If a mortgage will be required to purchase the property, the details for this, including the name of the mortgage company, must be on the compris.
2. Paying the Deposit
Generally the deposit will be 10% of the agreed purchase price. This will normally be paid to the notaire. There are exceptions to this, if the agent holds a carte professionelle, is bonded and fully registered then you may pay them, but do not hand over the deposit to anyone else. If for some reason the purchase does not go through, for example, if you write to the notaire and the agent that you do not wish to go continue with the purchase before the contract is binding (within seven days of signing the compris), then your deposit would be repaid. This would also apply if a condition had not been met, or the mayor or S.A.F.E.R. (a government agency that has the right of first purchase on most rural property that comes onto the market in France) could oblige the purchaser to give way. If you decide after the seven days 'cooling off' period that you do not wish to complete the purchase and pull out of the sale you would lose your deposit. If however the vendor pulls out of the sale then you will receive your deposit back plus the same amount from the vendor.
3. On Completion
Generally it will take around two or three months to complete the purchase.
During this time the balance of the purchase money must be paid into the account of the notaire, this must be done well ahead of the completion date. The notaire will prepare the documents, check that the deed of sale (Acte de Vente) is in order and have the legal title ready to be signed over. It is possible to have someone sign on your behalf if you give them power of attorney. An interpreter may be of use at this point if your French is not very good and many Notaires will suggest (or insist) that an interpreter is with you.
