Rare village property 400 meters from the famous Place Gentil Pantaly and its fountain in front of Gordes castle. It comprises an old farmhouse adjoining a more modern house, an authentic windmill, a swimming pool, a garden shed and a borie, for a total usable surface area of approx. 350 m² on a large plot of over 3600 m².
From the route de Murs, a small cul-de-sac leads to the rear of the property, where there is a parking area. From this area, you can enter the garden through a gate on the east side, into the garage or directly into the western part of the house.
Inside this 150 m² single-storey western section, the living area is spectacular: a large 55 m² living room with 3 windows facing east, south and west, like the bow of a boat on the land. At the rear, a 2-part kitchen (presentation/bar and preparation) revolves around the old well cut into the rock, lit and covered in glass.
At the far end is a hall leading to bedroom I with its shower room, dressing room, separate toilet and study. On the other side of the hall are the laundry room and a large checkroom.
This recent extension adjoins an old, 85 m², 2-storey farmhouse to the east, comprising a living room, small kitchen, 2 bedrooms Ii and Iii sharing a shower room, separate wc, then a bedroom Iv with its own shower room, separate wc with washbasin, private panoramic solarium terrace.
In front, a charming south-facing terrace is shaded by a century-old lime tree. To the side are 2 small sheds. To the rear, a large 50 m² garage/workshop completes the main building.
Comfort: underfloor heating/cooling (new part) and central heating by heat pump (old part), double-glazed aluminum or wood joinery, sandstone floors, Trilatte roof panels (120 mm).
To the west, the large living room faces an attractive terrace that houses the pool area, with its 5 x 10-meter concrete basin. Lined with polyester resin, the pool is treated with chlorine.
In front is an authentic stone windmill (22.5 m²), followed by an orangery-style garden shed (23 m²) with cellar, and finally, slightly below, a superb borie (11.50 m²).
The land is essentially flat, walled and easy to farm. In addition to lime trees, it is planted with holm and white oaks, cypresses, olive and fruit trees, and includes a vegetable garden and a small chicken coop. It's a quiet, residential spot, away from passing tourists to discover this village, voted the most beautiful in the world in 2023 by Travel and Leisure magazine.
