Full Description


Set within an area of outstanding natural beauty, this beautifully renovated semi-detached stone farmhouse, dating from the early 20th century and meticulously restored in 2025, enjoys a truly unique setting among meadows, rice fields and historic landscapes, with breathtaking views over the iconic Montmajour Abbey (Fontvieille).
The main residence impresses with its generous proportions and warm, welcoming atmosphere. At its heart is a magnificent, light-filled living room with soaring ceilings, complemented by an elegant mezzanine library. A dining room with fireplace, a more intimate second sitting room, a fully equipped kitchen, a shaded courtyard with outdoor dining area and barbecue, a guest suite, a study and a utility room complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the spacious yet inviting principal suite enjoys a dressing room, an en-suite bathroom and tranquil views across the surrounding rice fields. A second en-suite bedroom, together with two additional bedrooms sharing a bathroom with both bath and shower, complete the sleeping accommodation.
Outside, the beautiful stone swimming pool blends seamlessly into the landscape, framing spectacular views of Montmajour Abbey—a living masterpiece that changes with the seasons. The thoughtfully landscaped gardens also feature a pétanque court and a carport.
A separate guest house offers complete independence, comprising an entrance hall, a living room, a kitchen and, upstairs, two en-suite bedrooms, each enjoying lovely views over the surrounding countryside.
A further 150 sqm stone barn, still awaiting conversion, offers exceptional potential for a variety of projects, whether as a reception space, artist's studio, wellness area, gym, collector's garage or additional guest accommodation.
The interiors have been tastefully curated by the owner in an elegant Mid-Century Vintage style, blending carefully sourced antique pieces with authentic materials to create a sophisticated yet timeless atmosphere.
Located just minutes from Arles—renowned for its outstanding Roman heritage, vibrant restaurants, Provençal market and internationally acclaimed photography festival—and from Fontvieille, a charming village at the gateway to the Alpilles with its shops and local amenities, the property offers a rare balance between preserved nature, Provençal lifestyle and everyday convenience.
With seven bedrooms in total, this exceptional property is equally suited as an elegant family home or as a luxury seasonal rental investment, offering excellent income potential.
