Dating back to the late 18th century, this remarkable bastide began its life as a wool sheet factory before evolving into a perfumery, echoing the rich artisanal heritage of the region.
Meticulously and comprehensively renovated between 2018 and 2020, it has been exquisitely restored to the highest contemporary standards, seamlessly blending authentic architectural character with refined modern comfort.
Discreetly positioned within the village, the property offers a unique duality: complete privacy paired with immediate access to local life. From the gardens, one steps directly into the pristine landscapes of the Haut Var, with panoramic walking trails unfolding just beyond the doorstep.
Refined Interiors
Designed for both grand entertaining and intimate living, the residence offers 10 bedrooms and suites, thoughtfully arranged across three elegant and adaptable living spaces:
• The principal residence features five beautifully appointed en-suite bedrooms, a generous reception room, and a fully equipped kitchen designed for convivial gatherings.
• "Mahalia": a charming independent apartment with three bedrooms, a bathroom, and a fully equipped kitchen-ideal for guests or extended family.
• "Amalia": seamlessly connectable, offering an additional refined living area, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms.
A defining and truly exceptional feature of the estate lies beneath the main residence: a private cinema paired with a fully equipped professional post-production studio. Conceived as a discreet creative retreat, this space elevates the property into a rare category-equally suited to film professionals, artists, and discerning owners seeking an immersive, state-of-the-art environment for screening, editing, or composing.
This unique amenity transforms the bastide from a refined residence into a destination of creative expression.
Throughout the property, timeless Provencal elements such as a stone fireplace are complemented by carefully curated finishes and modern amenities, creating interiors that are both sophisticated and welcoming.

The estate's beautifully landscaped gardens provide an idyllic setting for relaxation and entertaining, offering:
• A sun-drenched swimming pool with elegant lounging areas

• Serene garden spaces perfectly suited for yoga, meditation, or quiet retreat
Ample parking, including covered spaces, ensures both convenience and discretion.
An Exceptional Location:

The surrounding region is a tapestry of vineyards, olive groves, forests, and historic chapels.

Buying a Property in France
1. Signing the Agreement (Compris)
On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner.
The next step, once you are in agreement, is to sign the preliminary contract (Compromis de Vente). This is a legal document and after ten days will be binding on both parties. Rules change frequently in France and it is best to consult with your notary about when this period starts. Generally the compris will be signed in France with the Agent.
Variants can be included in the compris, for example an Acte (clause) can be added if the name or names to go on the title deed have not been finalised. If a mortgage will be required to purchase the property, the details for this, including the name of the mortgage company, must be on the compris.
2. Paying the Deposit
Generally the deposit will be 10% of the agreed purchase price. This will normally be paid to the notaire. There are exceptions to this, if the agent holds a carte professionelle, is bonded and fully registered then you may pay them, but do not hand over the deposit to anyone else. If for some reason the purchase does not go through, for example, if you write to the notaire and the agent that you do not wish to go continue with the purchase before the contract is binding (within seven days of signing the compris), then your deposit would be repaid. This would also apply if a condition had not been met, or the mayor or S.A.F.E.R. (a government agency that has the right of first purchase on most rural property that comes onto the market in France) could oblige the purchaser to give way. If you decide after the seven days 'cooling off' period that you do not wish to complete the purchase and pull out of the sale you would lose your deposit. If however the vendor pulls out of the sale then you will receive your deposit back plus the same amount from the vendor.
3. On Completion
Generally it will take around two or three months to complete the purchase.
During this time the balance of the purchase money must be paid into the account of the notaire, this must be done well ahead of the completion date. The notaire will prepare the documents, check that the deed of sale (Acte de Vente) is in order and have the legal title ready to be signed over. It is possible to have someone sign on your behalf if you give them power of attorney. An interpreter may be of use at this point if your French is not very good and many Notaires will suggest (or insist) that an interpreter is with you.
