In a mineral and vegetable landscape...

Named after the type of olive growing at the property, this Mas  is an exceptional villa set against imposing rocks to one side and beautiful olive groves to the other, in the provençal landscape of the Alpilles in southeast France, within a short drive of the small village of Mouriès and also from the only golf course in the area. The interior of the property is of high quality and generates a lovely atmosphere, with a wonderful balance of old and new features which create great character, charm, and warmth.

Exterior

This beautifully understated house was built by a Belgian architect in 2001 to integrate with its spectacular setting in the Vallée des Baux at the foot of the Alpilles mountains, in six hectares of grounds including extensive olive groves. The location is a haven of peace, and there are panoramic views from the terraces and pool area. A large covered terrace provides a pleasant dining area and extends onto a smaller uncovered decked terrace overlooking the garden. To the side of the house is a shady lawned garden with a stone fountain, ideal for relaxing on hot summer afternoons. The large swimming pool has an electric cover and is set in a large terrace with loungers and a covered seating area.
