Domaine du Mistral

Property Description

Set within the timeless beauty of Les Alpilles, just a few minutes from the lively center of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Domaine du Mistral is an elegant Provençal estate offering charm, space, privacy, and refined comfort. Dating back to the 18th and 19th centuries, the property has been beautifully renovated while preserving the authentic character of a traditional mas, with old stone, exposed beams, a graceful staircase, antique furnishings, and carefully selected objets d’art throughout.

The estate is surrounded by approximately five hectares of beautifully maintained grounds, creating a private and peaceful setting ideal for families and groups of friends. The gardens include an olive grove, pear, almond, and fig trees, fragrant Provençal plantings such as lavender and rosemary, a pretty kitchen garden, an ornamental pond, and three magnificent century-old plane trees that shade the main terrace. A chicken coop provides fresh daily eggs, adding to the authentic country-house experience.

The outdoor spaces are designed for relaxed Provençal living. A vast terrace of approximately 400 square meters, partly covered with white wisteria and shaded by mature plane trees, offers generous areas for dining and lounging. Guests can enjoy long lunches and evening meals outdoors, with seating for up to 18 people. Several additional garden seating areas provide quiet corners for reading, conversation, or simply enjoying the views across the grounds.

At the heart of the estate is a large heated swimming pool, measuring approximately 17 to 18 meters in length, set within elegant stone surrounds and secured by a gate, making it well suited for families with young children. A pool house with a fridge, counter, and comfortable bench seating adds convenience for summer days by the pool. For recreation, the estate also offers a boules court, table tennis, a trampoline, barbecue facilities, and ample space for children to play.

Inside, Domaine du Mistral combines traditional Provençal elegance with modern comfort. The main house features a large entrance hall with a principal staircase, a country-style equipped kitchen with a back kitchen, a dining area opening toward the garden and terrace, an intimate sitting room, and a spacious main living room with fireplace and library shelves filled with books. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and full of character.

Adjoining the main house is a self-contained guest wing or dependence, accessed separately and ideal for extended families, teenagers, guests, or staff. This wing includes its own fully equipped kitchen, dining room, living room, and guest facilities, offering additional independence while remaining connected to the main estate.

The property offers 10 air-conditioned bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 18 guests.
