Charming property in the heart of Bibémus, following in the footsteps of Cézanne

Nestled amidst lush natural surroundings on the Bibémus hill, so beloved by the renowned painter Cézanne, this house is a hidden gem whose history dates back to the 19th century. The original bastide was entirely rebuilt, and the current house was erected seamlessly within its structure, in perfect harmony with it.

Ideally situated in absolute tranquility, yet just minutes from the center of Aix-en-Provence, this charming and characterful property offers approximately 240 square meters of living space on a 5,000-square-meter terraced plot where Mediterranean flora and leafy undergrowth intertwine.

The house is currently divided into four distinct living areas, offering great flexibility to suit individual needs: a large family residence, a hospitality project, or something else entirely. The original bastide and its charming surrounding terraces comprise a living room with an open-plan kitchen, and upstairs, a bedroom with a dressing room, a large bathroom, and a separate toilet.
The main house, built as an extension of the bastide, benefits from a large terrace bathed in sunshine throughout the day. The spacious, light-filled living room, thanks to its triple exposure and large windows, captivates with the authentic charm of its exposed beams, terracotta floor tiles, and large fireplace. It opens onto a fully equipped kitchen. An office space built into the rock face creates a dialogue between the house and the surrounding natural elements. This architectural subtlety is echoed in the magnificent bathroom adjoining the bedroom on this level. Two further bedrooms share a shower room upstairs. On the garden level, a studio apartment requiring renovation and a self-contained apartment comprising a living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom complete the property. Intimate terraces have been created to fully enjoy the tranquility and the surrounding nature.

At the entrance to the property, an outdoor area provides parking for several cars, and a large garden shed offers ample storage.
It is conveniently located near a request bus stop and close to the amenities of the town center and schools.
