Arles – Eco-Renovated 18th-Century Farmhouse with Contemporary Extensions
In the heart of the Crau countryside near Arles, this exceptional 18th-century Provençal mas has been transformed into a stunning blend of heritage and sustainability. Fully renovated and expanded with architect-designed eco-conscious extensions, it offers the perfect harmony between traditional charm and modern comfort.
The original farmhouse, built in rammed earth and pebbles typical of local architecture, has been enhanced by two timber-framed wings designed by architect Frédéric Nicolas. These new volumes feature green roofs, bio-sourced insulation, and a geothermal heating system with heat pump—an approach that respects both the environment and the soul of the place.
Set on over 3,000 m² of landscaped grounds with no direct neighbours, the property boasts more than 200 m² of bright and beautifully arranged living space across two levels.
On the ground floor:
A spacious double living room
An open-plan kitchen and dining area
A cosy lounge in one wing
A master suite with en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe in the other
Large sliding corner doors, sheltered by elegant cantilevered roofs, open wide to create seamless indoor-outdoor living and frame panoramic countryside views.
Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom provide ample space for family and guests.
A separate 19 m² workshop and technical room completes the property.
Outdoors, the landscaped garden features endemic plant species and a 11 x 4 m swimming pool, surrounded by open fields and enhanced with contemporary sculptures installed by the current owners, both art collectors.
Highlights we love:
– The flawless integration of old and new
– The peaceful, private setting
– The environmentally responsible design
– The proximity to Arles and major transport links
Location: 10 minutes from Saint-Martin-de-Crau, 20 minutes from Arles, 50 minutes from Marseille Airport and the TGV station.
