La Maison En Provence | La Ramade Vielle 84400 Villars France
This impressive 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath home has unique interior architectural features that have been built by skilled artists with a profound respect for tradition. The use of ancient materials combined with modern technologies give the unique warmth and character of French old-world craftsmanship while providing easy maintenance and comfort of a modern home.
The main living level was designed to create comfortable living and entertaining space which flow together harmoniously, each having spectacular views with access to the outdoor verandas. It encompasses an entrance hall featuring a burgundy stone-carved staircase to the second level, a grand salon with stone fireplace and balcony, a large center isle kitchen boasting custom antique walnut cabinetry, stone countertops and counter seating for six, a dining room with original old stone walls and a library with hidden access to the old tower, transformed into a charming powder room.
The spectacular oversized second floor master suite with soaring ceilings is a magical, luxurious retreat. The numerous windows with outstanding views to the Colorado Provencal along with a Juliette balcony are just a few of the key features of this impressive space. There is also a 238 square foot dressing room, and six by eight foot shower, private water closet, and seven and a half foot double vanities. Not to be overlooked is the romantic six foot double soaking tub nestled into a grand French window designed for the delight of a candle-lit evening on the full rising moon capturing the warm sweet Provencal breeze.
No expense was spared when designing this home. Last but not least, a brand new 9-hole golf course just opened only half a mile away from the property.
