Full Description
Nestled in the northeast of Luberon Regional Park and facing the majestic mountain of Lure, this former mill, charming in its surroundings, stands at the confluence of two peaceful streams. Its lush grounds, adorned with trees and flowers, are surrounded by verdant forests, fields, and meadows extending as far as the eye can see. To enhance this bucolic setting, a heated swimming pool and a pond invite relaxation.
Rehabilitated in the 1980s, the property underwent a meticulous renovation by a London-based architect who intended to turn it into luxury tourist rentals. The current owners, who are also architects, have enhanced the place, blending elegance and comfort to create a warm family home.
The main building offers several bright reception spaces, centered around a modern, fully equipped kitchen with contemporary lines, crafted with high-end materials. The sleeping area consists of spacious suites, ensuring privacy and comfort.
A separate wing houses an independent apartment, including a living room, a kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom, adorned with a traditional bread oven that adds an authentic touch to the ensemble.
On the ground floor, the restored mill, with its vaulted rooms, leads to a relaxation area equipped with a spa. A summer kitchen, designed as an orangery, harmoniously complements this authentic part of the property.
Workspaces, whether independent or interior, as well as storage spaces, cellars, a workshop, a laundry room, and other service rooms, add to the numerous assets of this residence. A courtyard and ideally exposed terrace offer pleasant outdoor living spaces.
While preserving its traditional charm, this property perfectly meets modern expectations of comfort. Sheltered from any disturbances, it provides an ideal living environment for nature lovers seeking serenity.
