Description
Perched at an altitude of 500 metres and overlooking the majestic Verdon Gorge, this property represents a truly unique opportunity: 434 hectares of continuous land, free of any development, with no immediate neighbors, in surroundings of wild and unspoiled beauty. A former Templar preceptory, the estate bears witness to centuries of history. It comprises 190 hectares of farmland, over 200 hectares of oak and pine forests, and 30 hectares of heathland. It also includes nearly 2 kilometres of private riverbanks along the Verdon Gorge, where the crystal-clear water forms a spectacular natural corridor that provides sanctuary for local flora and fauna. There are four natural springs on the estate, ensuring water self-sufficiency and bringing a rare sense of pastoral charm. The biodiversity here is remarkable, including ancient truffle orchards, olive trees, beehives and abundant game: it is a vibrant, bountiful and unspoiled natural setting. At the heart of this pristine landscape, perched on a promontory, stands a Provençal country house dating back to 1634. Offering approximately 500 sq.m of living area, it features a 16 x 8m swimming pool and a pool house. Its outbuildings include an 80 sq.m caretaker's house, a guest house of approximately 150 sq.m and several farming buildings (a 700 sq.m sheepfold, barns of 650 sq.m and 300 sq.m and others totalling over 1000 sq.m). A collection of ancient Templar ruins covers nearly 2000 sq.m. Thanks to its size, its history and the beauty of its setting, this estate offers exceptional potential for future development. Possibilities include the creation of an exceptional high-altitude vineyard, an olive- or truffle-growing business, a high-end agri-tourism facility, accommodation, catering, discovery experiences, an equestrian centre, hiking, outdoor activities and more.
