Le Bastidon - Elegant 18th Century Bastide
Nestled in the charming village of Ventabren, this authentic 18th-century property offers approximately 180 m² of fully renovated living space combining period character with contemporary comfort—an idyllic Provençal retreat for travelers seeking tranquility, charm, and modern amenities.
Upon entering, you’ll be struck by the generous, light-filled volumes, the choice of high-quality materials, and the meticulous attention to detail. The ground floor comprises a bright, through-living room with a cozy fireplace; an open-plan, fully equipped kitchen featuring a central island; and a welcoming dining area perfect for family gatherings or meals with friends. Also on this level is a small bedroom with a single bed—ideal for a child or occasional guest—complete with its own shower room (shower and basin) in an independent, functional space. This room opens directly onto a private terrace, perfect for enjoying a moment of quiet or stepping out into the garden.
All bedrooms are air-conditioned to ensure your comfort in every season. Upstairs, three peaceful bedrooms await:
A master suite with a 160 × 200 cm bed and a private shower room.
Two additional bedrooms, each appointed with a 160 × 200 cm bed, which share a well-appointed shower room.
Outside, set within a landscaped 2 500 m² garden, is an independent pool-side suite accessible only from the exterior. This secluded room, with its own 160 × 200 cm bed and private shower room, is perfect for a couple seeking extra privacy or guests desiring a serene hideaway.
The lush garden—an oasis of Mediterranean plantings—features a beautiful wood-decked swimming pool, a furnished pool house, and several shaded lounge areas designed for ultimate relaxation. Every outdoor space has been crafted to immerse you in nature, refinement, and the effortless Provençal “joie de vivre.”
Additional amenities include high-speed Wi-Fi, premium bed and bath linens, and several private parking spaces on the property.
Ventabren’s authenticity and strategic location allow easy exploration of Provence’s highlights: the markets of Aix-en-Provence, the hilltop villages of the Luberon, renowned vineyards, or the Mediterranean coast—all within an hour’s drive.
A single tenant lives on the premises in a little cottage tucked away at the back of the garden; you will never come across him, but his presence ensures absolute tranquility.
The property is for sale, and it is possible that we will contact you during your stay so that the real estate agency in charge of the sale can arrange a visit with potential buyers. The owner will be present during this visit.
Whether for a summer getaway, an extended weekend, or a rejuvenating Provençal escape, this Mas is the perfect place to unpack your bags. Upon confirmation of your stay, bespoke services—airport transfers, private chef, or any other tailored request—can be arranged to make your visit truly unforgettable. Our team remains at your full disposal.
