A beautifully redesigned 18C Provencal farmhouse in an unspoilt setting.
Situated with breath-taking views over the valley and mountains of the Luberon, Mas du Faucon stands within 1½ hectares, incorporating a cherry orchard, and with landscaped garden designed by the renowned Nicole de Vesian. Only 10 minutes walk to the medieval village of Goult. Regional market days are offered in picturesque villages every day of the week including Velleron’s nightly market in the summer.
The Mas encloses a courtyard where shaded summer dining takes place. The interior has been completely modernised to achieve a balance between the charm of the past and the comfort and style of the 21st century. The spacious Salon complete with log burning stove has a reading and television viewing area. French windows open to the courtyard & others lead out to the West terrace where there is seating and outdoor dining. A well equipped kitchen with vaulted ceiling has a dining area with large extending circular table.
