DESCRIPTION

ARGENCE ARGENCE presents this sublime early 19th century estate with 600 m² of living space! Set in lush greenery and surrounded by vineyards, on the outskirts of Montpellier, this charming property was originally built by a surveyor who wanted to find refuge in this very special place after his many travels.

The setting was perfect for this, and this Montpellier 'countryside' is naturally inspired by a global vision of the world, with a strong Mediterranean accent in the atmosphere and thanks to the species that make up the park, referring to Provence and Tuscany.

The desired architecture tended to emphasise a certain nobility, to set it apart from the farmhouses that were more common in the region and had a more agricultural vocation, even though it was extended in the 20th century for wine-growing purposes.

The estate as a whole reflects several eras, with elements that can be found in a true Provençal Bastide, an Orangerie, a Maison Bourgeoise or a more modest Campagne.

What is certain is that the current property bears witness to a desire to find a home here that offers the luxury of simplicity and authenticity.

The main house, with 600 m² of living space, is spread over 3 levels.

The whole of the ground floor is given over to living spaces that open wide to the outdoors, another luxury for an old house.

The high ceilings are noble, with vaulted ceilings.

A large fireplace adorns the lounge area, bringing the house's occupants together in style.

The kitchen is modern in design, as it is open and communicates with the living areas, while respecting the soul of the old building.

There is plenty of space, and light floods into every corner of the house in the best possible way at every time of year.

The first floor features a sleeping area.

There are two bedroom suites.

Each suite has its own private lounge, just like a fine hotel, with a spirit of old-fashioned "Haussmann-inspired" adjoining rooms.

A large 68 m² suite opens onto a 50 m² solarium terrace with breathtaking views.

There is a small lounge, bedroom, alcove dressing room and private bathroom with authentic clawfoot bath and Italian-style shower.

Opposite the landing is another 70 m² flat suite, in a similar style, but this time without a terrace.

The second floor offers three suites.

Two are 45 m², each with a private lounge, and one is 60 m², again with a lounge and private bathroom.

Finally, on one wing of the building, there is a studio with mezzanine bedroom, which can be totally independent or joined together.

A large utility room, or if required, another suite, is possible thanks to a free space of inspiration, and the scullery could become a professional kitchen, for the functional side of the property.

The estate also boasts a caretaker's cottage in a rear courtyard, currently divided into two 2-bedroom flats, as well as a huge coach house with a floor surface area of 200 m² and a 13-metre high ceiling, which would be ideal for an artist, seminars or any other extravagance you might like to undertake.

The place is simply magical, with nothing missing in terms of either spirit or materials: ornate cast-iron radiators, vaulted ceilings, parquet flooring, steel stone...

It all comes together wonderfully, and despite the idea of a huge place on paper, the dimensions remain on a human scale and the place is warm, simple, authentic and friendly.

The exterior will reflect everything we've said.

The pool area is a perfect blend of old and new, with a superb summer kitchen, garden walks in the French style, paved courtyards planted with trees for large-scale receptions....

Once again, nothing is missing.

Mauguio airport is just a few minutes away, as are the A9 motorway and the TGV high-speed train stations at Nîmes and Montpellier, making this property an exceptional, fast-access location from which to take full advantage of its 19th-century creator's vision of an ideal 'retreat' in which to revel in magical moments.

SUBLIME ESTATE BETWEEN NIMES AND MONTPELLIER!
