Close the gates on 25 acres of rolling olive plantations and lavender, cypress trees, mature oaks and fruit orchards and relax in your own personal haven of peace. Away from the tourists and hustle and bustle of the rushed Cote d'Azur, the olive estate of Notre Dame exists in the peace, tranquility and richness that is Aix-en-Provence and the Luberon.
Notre Dame du Val is the rarest of experiences. Plenty of light and space, charming interior design rich in art and sculpture, you can be assured of great comfort and relaxation during your time in Provence. With extensive views over the rich French countryside to the mountains of the Massif de l'Etoile in the far south, Notre Dame du Val is a wonderful mix of tradition and modernity on the doorstep of Aix-en-Provence, possibly one of the most vibrant, entertaining and exquisite towns in France.
For the Golf enthusiasts, we are perfectly situated - literally across the road from a brand-new 18-hole professional golf course with spectacular views.
The property, which is surrounded by parkland trees, consists of a traditional Bastide (Aixoise Maison de Maitre), and a range of other buildings. These include a beautifully restored 19th century stone farm house, an Orangery, a Pigeonier (pigeon house), a large Pool house and a Garage.
In the gardens you will find, for your entertainment, an excellent new tennis court, with a dynamic world class artificial grass surface, a 17-metre pool with spectacular views, a trampoline fitted with safety enclosure and a professional ping-pong table, all near the house for easy access!
The Orangery contains a gym equipped with a LifeFitness running machine, LifeFitness bike, a Powerplate unit, a Gravitron upper body system, free weights etc.
Around 1000 olive trees, young and old, surround the property with their unique beauty and gravitas.
