La Garduelle

In the middle of the Var (Provence), in the idyllic village of Bargemon, lies this beautiful and recently renovated special house.

Bargemon is located between the Cote d'Azur (40 min drive) and the Gorges du Verdon (approx. 60 min drive), near the picturesque towns of Fayence, Callas and Seillans. The village itself is set in mountainous terrain, is rustic and exudes timelessness. The central square is lined by old lime trees and the old alleyways with fountains make it an authentic Provencal village.
The village's facilities include a bakery (2), butcher, several restaurants and cafés, a local supermarket and several shops.

The area also lends itself perfectly to shorter or longer stays focused on hiking/hiking, cycling/cycling, golf (there are beautiful golf courses nearby) and canoeing/rafting (Gorges du Verdon). And with the Mediterranean Sea within reach, the possibilities are endless.

The house itself is located at the top of the village, about 5 minutes' walk from the centre. It is located at the forest edge in an elevated suburb of the village and offers privacy and tranquillity. There is space for 3 cars on the on-site parking.

The grounds (approx. 1500 m2) are gently sloping, in the garden there are old olive trees and cypresses. The terrace faces south, providing sun from early morning to late evening (with more than enough shade). There are clear views over the mountains, the valley and an olive grove. From the terrace you have a view of the spacious pool below. Under the foliage is good shade on hot days.

When entering the house, you immediately notice the spacious and characteristic conservatory. This provides natural coolness in the house. In addition, it is a nice place to sit in case it is chilly outside, or just look out over the garden and enjoy the view. The studio is accessible from the conservatory (with its own entrance). You can also access the rest of the house from the conservatory.

The studio has its own bathroom (shower) and separate WC, as well as French doors to the terrace. At the moment there is still a temporary bed (photo), from the end of April this will be a 160*200 four-poster bed. If desired, an extra bed can be placed in this spacious room for a third person on request. The bathroom is good; it will be renovated in line with the other two bathrooms at the end of 2024.

The kitchen is equipped with all the desired conveniences. A large cooker with large oven, dishwasher, microwave. The kitchen will be completely renovated in early 2024. All imaginable electrical appliances are present including Nespresso, filter coffee machine, gravy press, blender, puree maker, microwave. The kitchen is also fully equipped including new kitchen knives, glasses, plates and cutlery. The separate utility room has two refrigerators (one with freezer compartment), washing machine, hoover. There is also ample storage space.

The living/dining room has a fireplace. The TV is equipped with Chromecast so you can stream all the programmes and films you want from your phone or tablet. There are several games available that can be used freely.

The bedroom/bathroom area on the ground floor can be accessed from the living room. The bathroom (new) has a bathtub with shower and two separate sinks. There is also a separate toilet in the hallway. There are two bedrooms on the ground floor of the main house. One with a 140*200 bed and one with two 90*200 beds. Both have patio doors on the garden/terrace side and have separate shutters (like all bedrooms). An extra bed can be added in one of the two bedrooms if required. Incidentally, all beds have new slatted frames and new mattresses.

The Vide floor can also be accessed from the living room. Here you will find the 3rd bathroom (new) with very large walk-in shower, washbasin and toilet. There is also a small bedroom with a single bed (not pictured) and a larger bedroom with another double bed of 160*200. This room has a window on the garden side and also has shutters that can be closed in the evening.

Next to the house is the garage, where you will find a large electric BBQ/outdoor kitchen, table tennis table, Jeu de Boules, all kinds of pool equipment and tools.

Behind the house is the opportunity to dry laundry on permanent drying lines.
