Home description
Very spacious newly built villa with high quality fittings and stylish interiors. The house is simply furnished with modern appliances. The gorgeous kitchen and dining area is bright with doors opening to the terraces.
Outdoors the spaciousness continues with wide patios and sun terrace. The green lawns are well maintained and surround the luxurious pool set in the view of the outdoor dining tables. Plenty of space for kids to run around and a pool slide to keep them amused for hours.
Lovely views over the surrounding fields, exposed to the blue sky of the Aixoise countryside.

The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Bouches-du-Rhone region
Bouches-du-Rhône is one of the original 83 departments created during the French Revolution on March 4, 1790. It was created from part of the former province of Provence. It lost part of its territory in 1793, when the Vaucluse department was created.
Its capital city Marseille is rich in many cultures with a strong mediterranean influence. The history of the area is closely linked to that of Provence. Marseille has been an important harbor since before Julius Caesar's conquest of Gaul. It is surrounded by the departments of Gard to the west, the higher plains and rocky hills of the Luberon Vaucluse to the north, and the rising green hills and mountains of the Var to the east, and by the Mediterranean Sea to the south.
The beaches stretching west of here on the 'Cote bleue' are mainly sandy interspaced with rocky inlets and stunning cliffs. East the famous 'Calanques' provide lagoon like havens some accessible only by boat and others by the most stunning clifftop walks. The pretty villages and towns that line the coast here offer the most pleasant promenades and seafronts and you will want to spend all day and evening in one of the many cafés, bars or restaurants that entice you with the sweet smelling bouillabaisse or the ice cold pastis served on the terraces.
Inland the villages are overflowing with roman and gaulish history with ruins, fountains, roman baths and monuments galore. The most famous of painters such as Paul Cezanne spent many years here, in love with the pinkish light that bathes everything with warmth, from the Mount Saint Victoire to the perched villages further north.
Aix En Provence area
Often called City of Art, City of Water, Aix en Provence attracts many tourists from all around the world. Aix boasts a fantastic climate, set in a valley between the Luberon Mountains to the north, the green valleys of the Var and Marseille and the Mediterranean beaches to the south. Loved and painted by Paul Cezanne, many a warm evening can be spent dining on one of the terraces or numerous restaurants lined up on the cobbled streets.
The closeby Mount Saint Victoire provides a naturally outstanding area of beauty, with many hikes, fields and plains to be discovered, natural sources and water holes tempt hot feet and laughing children.
