Home description
From the outside this is an imposing building with a rich history of accommodating officers of French law, but as you step into the beautiful reception area, be prepared for a surprise!
Of the 7 apartments in total, 5 have 2 bedrooms, one has 1 bedroom and the other has 3 bedrooms. Each is very spacious with King and Queen size beds, well-equipped kitchens and large bathrooms. Outside there's a large private terraces and shared used of the pool garden and gym.
No expense has been spared and as you'll see from the photos, the result is extremely successful. The style throughout the building is comfortable, modern and uncluttered. There is incredible attention to detail and where possible, the original features of the building have been retained and incorporated in the new design.
One of the biggest surprises is to find such a large pool, garden and private gym, hidden from view of the village. Again take a look at the photos to get an idea of the great views and privacy of this area.
Le Gendarmerie is the perfect location if you want to be in the heart of the Luberon and able to explore all the picture-postcard hilltop villages, great restaurant and surrounding spectacular scenery. It has the advantage of a village centre location, but the luxury and tranquillity often only found when you stay at a remote, expensive villa.
