This vast property set in perfect peace and quiet, is the ideal getaway. The main house offers a large living room with monumental fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, dining room, three en-suite bedrooms including the master bedroom that leads out directly onto the vast terraces, partly covered to enjoy al fresco dining and offering lovely views over the distant mountains and the gardens.

Near the pool area is the other guest accommodation which includes a large living room, equipped kitchen, 2 bedrooms with en-suite facilities, all with direct access to the pool area.
The pool area consists of lovely terraces, sun decks surrounding the
15 x 5m swimming pool all overlooking the magnificent olive grove, the orchard and the mountains further afield. There are beautiful gardens with a large olive grove, a vegetable patch, a small vineyard, a pizza oven surrounded by terraces, a full-size petanque pitch and numerous fruit trees.
Further down beyond the fruit trees is a lovely old stone-built cabanon that serves momentarily to store garden equipment but could also be used as an overflow for further guests ( with some modification).
There is a proper petanque pitch, parking for several cars including carports for 3 cars, and 3 electric gates leading in/out of the property.
The property is perfectly maintained and could be moved into immediately. Should you wish to build further there are interesting development possibilities in the vast terrain.
A lovely property to suit a large family, or someone looking to gain income through B&B rentals, this property is well worth a look.

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.
