A Former Shepherd’s House, Three Dwellings, 9 Hectares of Nature

At the end of a charming country road, nestled in an unspoiled natural setting, lies this beautifully restored former shepherd’s house offering 403 m2 of living space on 9 hectares of land.

Set at an altitude of 796 metres, surrounded by lavender fields and woodland, the property enjoys complete peace and privacy. This is a place where you truly feel away from it all.

The house has been carefully restored while preserving its original character, featuring natural stone, original doors, authentic flooring, and generous living spaces.

Today, the property is arranged as three separate dwellings, two of which can easily be combined into a single residence. This flexible layout is ideal for a large family, entertaining guests, or maintaining independent living spaces.

Outside, a heated 7 × 5 metre tiled swimming pool, complete with a summer kitchen, enjoys uninterrupted views over the surrounding countryside.

One of the property’s most remarkable features is its 42 m2 vaulted wine cellar, fully fitted with custom wine racks and a large dining table for entertaining. It is a truly exceptional space and undoubtedly one of the home’s most unique highlights.

The property also benefits from a 90 m2 garage with electric doors and a stable capable of accommodating up to four horses.

In terms of amenities, the property is connected to mains water while also benefiting from a natural spring, as well as a 15,000-litre rainwater harvesting system.

For year-round comfort, the original thick stone walls have been preserved, with parts of the house insulated internally. The roof is insulated, and the windows are double glazed. Heating is provided by electric radiators, complemented by a pellet stove and a wood-burning fireplace with an insert.

An additional 30 m2 of photovoltaic solar panels further enhances the property’s energy efficiency.

The land also includes truffle oak trees.

A particularly unusual feature is that the property benefits from an occasional ultralight aircraft (ULM) landing authorisation.

Fibre-optic internet is currently available approximately 400 metres from the property.

“Nine hectares of land, lavender fields, woodland, no immediate neighbours, and silence broken only by birdsong. Those who know the area also speak quietly of mushroom and truffle foraging…”

A truly exceptional property waiting to be discovered.
