Map & Owner's Profile
Beautiful Stone Villa with Pool, 2 Mn from Center of Avignon
Year Purchased: 2000
Why the Owner Chose Avignon
The villa Bacchus was for sale in 2000 right next to our personal villa.It was old (100 years old)and a very small typical provençal house. The fact that my husband and I studied architecture probably helped us a lot to feel like we could do it again, but this time better than our own house! My husband and I (yes I did all the tiles,and painted) worked on it for 3 years non stop, with very little help, after our part time jobs.
The Unique Benefits at this House
After the villa was done we build a pool in the middle of the land, where the old separation wall use to be. We rent this villa all year around, and when we show it it to our new guest, we can help it to be so proud! It is more beautiful than our own villa, and the kids are asking to swich house all the time. The location is perfect and it is so peaceful.All the noble material we used to build the villa with are only getting better with time...it is truelly a timeless beautiful provencal villa!
Beautiful stone Provencal villa with a pool (to share with owner) Can sleep 6, with air conditioning, internet, and all the modern facility for your vacation. Very private and peaceful, but only minut
Owner's Map of Avignon
Bonjour! we are a French/American family, My husband Kelly is from Nevada and I am born and raise in Avignon. After living in many places around the world, we came back to Provence in 1997 and decided that it was definitly our favorite life style and place. So it was easy to buy a beautiful "fixer-upper" villa in the middle of the pine trees, and to start raising our family.We now have Thalia 5 years old, Kassidy 11, and Maeva 12.
