Le Viguier

Property Description

Tucked away in the timeless beauty of Provence, this elegant six-bedroom villa once served as a residence for church cardinals, offering a rare blend of historic grandeur and contemporary comfort. Surrounded by the tranquil charm of southern France, the estate exudes a sense of serenity and refined living. Within its private garden, a shimmering swimming pool invites moments of leisure beneath the Provencal sun, while guests also enjoy access to a fifteen-acre park and a nearby shared tennis court. The villa’s exterior, with its aged stone walls and terracotta-tiled roof, reflects centuries of heritage, while the surrounding landscape offers a haven of peace and natural beauty. Inside, the villa retains its authentic Provençal character, with vaulted ceilings, traditional cotto floors, and graceful archways that complement the modern amenities throughout. A wine cellar, satellite television, and Wi-Fi ensure contemporary comfort amid the rustic charm. The living spaces are inviting and spacious, featuring two elegant sitting areas within an L-shaped great room—ideal for gathering and relaxation. A formal dining room beneath soaring vaulted ceilings provides the perfect setting for leisurely dinners, while the modern kitchen, complete with a breakfast table, encourages casual morning meals infused with sunlight and local flavor. The villa offers five bedrooms with king-size beds and one with a queen, each beautifully appointed with an ensuite bathroom, some featuring luxurious Italian showers. Together, these serene spaces can accommodate up to twelve guests in total comfort. From this peaceful retreat, it is only a ten-minute stroll to the picturesque village of Villeneuve-lès-Avignon, and a short drive to the historic city of Avignon—a UNESCO World Heritage Site celebrated for its medieval architecture, vibrant markets, and artistic heritage.
