After turning off a departmental road, the property is accessed via a roughly 100-metre-long dirt track, in the middle of the vines. A low wooden gate at the rear of the house to the north opens onto a vast, flat area where several vehicles can be parked, and where a remarkable oak tree which is over 400 years old takes pride of place. Behind it, a wooded area slopes down to the stream that runs along the western edge of the property. More than 1 hectare of dense vegetation surrounds the property, which is entirely enclosed, giving it the utmost privacy. Mainly facing south, the original residence was built in the early 18th century and underwent several extensions during the 19th and 20th centuries. The two-storey building has a double-pitched, canal-tiled roof edged with a double row of spandrels. The façades are rendered in an ochre colour and have large-paned windows and white wooden shutters. A veranda with white wrought-iron frames and a wisteria canopy was added in the 20th century and extends the west side of the main façade. Several delicately landscaped outdoor areas stretch out in front of and on either side of the building. A gravelled terrace with a fountain, planted with ancient plane trees, mulberry trees and a Canadian maple, runs along the front of the building and leads down a few steps to the pool area further down on the west side. On the other side of the terrace to the east, there is a stone basin above vegetable patches bordered by low drystone walls. Further down, there is a grassy area planted with olive trees before the orchard where several varieties of fruit trees are planted.

The building

The main part of the building was built in 1712 with 60 cm thick walls and extended to the west during the 19th century. It now spans almost 500 m² and is two storeys high.

The garden-level floor
The main entrance is set in the most recent part of the building, in the middle of the south-facing façade. A wooden door with a glazed top half opens onto the entrance hall. The double-height staircase leads to the old section to the east, the newer section to the west, and then to the floor above via a painted wooden staircase that continues to a mezzanine. A bull's eye window and a window on the first floor bring light to the room. There are a guest toilet and cupboard opposite the entrance. The old part, set back slightly, is accessed via a few steps and leads to a dining room and a lounge and a second entrance. The walls are rendered in a sand colour and are lit by south-facing small-paned windows, as well as an east-facing window in the lounge. A stone fireplace is set against the east wall of the living room. The floors are paved with Burgundy stone, while the ceilings are crossed by white-painted exposed beams. Beyond the hallway, to the west, in the newer part of the house, there is a vast kitchen with a fireplace. It once had three small-paned windows. One of these has now been converted into a French window, providing direct access to the adjoining veranda. This opens onto the terrace on one side and the pool area on the other, through two arched French windows. It is also used as a greenhouse. At the far end of the kitchen, a flight of steps leads to a long room with built-in storage space, and then to a vast workshop measuring around 40 m2. Set against the west gable of the building, it has a high, pitched roof with exposed beams. With wrought iron surrounds like the veranda, it opens onto a terrace to the west, enclosed by a canopy to the north. Like in the old part, the floors are paved with Burgundy stone, and the old cast-iron radiators are painted grey-green.
The first floor
Accessible from the staircase in the entrance hall, the upper floor, like the lower floor, differentiates between the two wings of the house: one older, the other more recent. Set back on the east-facing mezzanine, a second hallway, bathed in light from a north-facing window, opens onto the old part of the building. A few steps lead up to a large bedroom and to a staircase leading up to a second floor. The bedroom is almost 70 m². It is adjoined by a dressing room and a light-filled bathroom. The mezzanine also leads to the first floor of the newer part of the house. A separate entrance at the rear of the building is accessed from the ground floor via a passageway with cupboards. Opposite the entrance hall, a corridor leads to a shower room and toilet on either side, before leading to a south-facing bedroom with two large windows. In keeping with the spirit of the house, the floors are paved with Burgundy stone, while the ceilings are in French style.
The second floor
From the hallway of the old house, a staircase leads to a landing that leads to three distinct spaces. To the east, a few steps lead up to a suite made up of a lounge/library and a study, both with parquet flooring and double-sloped ceilings with white-painted exposed beams. Opposite the staircase, there is a large bedroom under a sloping roof with whitewashed beams, illuminated from the south by two generous windows and paved with Burgundy stone. There is also a large north-facing shower room with a toilet. In the newer part of the house, an internal grey-painted wooden staircase, accessed via a separate entrance, leads to a two-room flat. A vast living room with an open-plan kitchen is bathed in light from two south-facing windows, with uninterrupted views over the pool and the hills in the distance. The spacious bedroom faces north and has a shower room with a toilet. Here again, the walls, parquet floors and beams under the eaves are all white, enhancing the brightness of the space.
