Full Description


House for sale by our estate agency in Avignon.


Unique and rare property with roof-top terrace and annexes, for sale, in Avignon Intra-muros, in the Vaucluse.

With a total living area of around 700 m², this exceptional property dates back to the end of the 13th century and has undergone extraordinary renovation, providing this historic residence with all the comforts of modernity while preserving the authenticity of this ancestral heritage. Lovers of history and architecture will be enchanted by the building, whose elevation predates that of the Palais des Papes, making it an exceptional place to visit. This building, invested by the Antonine Order of Hospitallers in 1290, served as a refuge for Benedict Xiii, the last Pope of Avignon. Desecrated during the French Revolution, the chapel became an American cultural centre in 1970. Since 2012, the current owners have been working with passion and determination to transform the chapel into a magnificent, atypical and charming residence.

The choice of high-quality materials, the conservation of the chapel's architectural features, its volume and high ceilings, and its aesthetic appeal and taste have all brought this medieval residence back to life.

This property complex comprises a 190 sqm theatre with dressing rooms, a 200 sqm cinema and a large 253 sqm loft with a lovely 25 sqm terrace.

The loft comprises an entrance hall, a huge 120 sqm living room, a master bedroom in the former apse of the church and an alcove bedroom, a bathroom with walk-in shower and WC.

Above there is a kitchen opening onto a dining room overlooking the magnificent living room. A roof top with panoramic views over Avignon and the Palais des Papes completes this property.


Ideally located in the heart of Avignon's historic centre, close to amenities, theatres, restaurants and bars, the property is 10 minutes from Avignon high speed train station and 15 minutes from the A7 motorway.
