About this property
The old stable in Provence(Verte) Entrecasteaux,Var. Coast 50ms,Airport 60ms
Entrecasteaux is an old original historical chateau village, set inside a gorgeous river ravine, high in the mountains but without the steep climb to get there!
The area is rich in vineyards, greenery, rivers, lakes and activities.
An enchanting, stimulating village location, yet with everything you need!
With the Mediterranean 50mins away, Marseilles and Nice airports around an 1 & 1/4 hour driving time. There is a fully tuned Piano at the property as well which is available for any pianists that stay.
Daily markets in various towns and villages around make your stay perfect, the main local market in Lorgues on Tuesdays is a must!
Entrecasteaux has a good selection of bars and restaurants complete
With its own bakery and butchers just minutes walk away from the property.
Parking is ample and free.
The village is the friendliest around and get ready to be greeted by everyone you pass in the street!
A rare chance to experience peace and tranquility in a truly unspoilt village, yet with all the amenities and facilities that have become essential in our lives, albeit Provence-style!
For an exquisite escape into the depths of Provence, this medieval setting will enchant you and enable you to experience the original unspoilt true feeling of Provence at its absolute best!

My main residence is in London, UK.
I discovered the Var region and Provence over 25 years ago, and have been back and forth ever since.
I fell in love with Entrecasteux and Rue Sous Barry in particular and was lucky enough to find a unique property there.

Why they chose this property
Exquisite, unique, charming Provence-style property, with wider and spacious living accommodation than most typical older properties.
The location is a short walk from both the village center, and the river.
Also, non-restrictive parking is nearby, with also the convenience of being able to drive to the property itself to unload and load.

What makes this property unique
Combining the 'antique' charm of a 1700's property with modern conveniences,
an updated state of the art kitchen, a large bathroom plus an ensuite attached to one of the bedrooms.
