Did we enjoy our honeymoon? I guess so! We bought the house!
Located in the rural village of St.Roman de Malegarde, our charming stone walled French maison is the quintessential Provencal experience. This thoughtfully restored 18th century home provides a comfortable base from which to explore the spectacular Cotes du Rhone countryside. Enjoy daily markets and dozens of local wineries, as you meander between picturesque villages and vine-covered hillsides. Close by, you can explore the ancient town of Vaison la Romaine, its many Roman ruins, or visit some famous wine villages such as: Chateauneuf du Papes, Gigondas, Seguret, Cairanne or Rasteau.
Upon arriving in our village, as you make your way up the Grand Rue, please notice the spring fed communal fountain on your right and the town lavoir on your left. White shutters on natural river-rock walls and fragrant blooming lavender will greet you. The rustic open-beamed ceiling and traditional tile floor will make you feel at home. The second story and terrace offer pleasant views. A fully equipped kitchen, dining room, and living room comprise the downstairs. Two bedrooms and the bath make up the second level.
Imagine coming home from the local markets, your shopping basket overflowing with fresh produce, meats, seafood, cheese, olives, and just-baked baguettes. Dine in our large dining room (seats eight) or al fresco outside, on the terrace, or put your groceries away and visit one of many local restaurants. After dinner, the rounded fireplace invites you to relax.

Why the Owner Chose St. Roman de Malegarde
We decided to buy this home because of its romantic charm. We spent our honeymoon in the house, fell in love with it, and purchased it when it became available. The villagers have given us a warm reception.
The Unique Benefits of this Single Family, Detached House
You will enjoy quiet morning and evening walks around the village. You may ride our bicycles to the local market and fruit stands. The stillness and rural setting is incredible.
