Property for sale in Gordes, Vaucluse, Provence-Alpes-Côte d`Azur, France

This bioclimatically designed house stands in almost 4000 sq m of land in quiet, peaceful surroundings in Gordes municipality.

The property comprises a main house with 200 sq m of liveable floorspace set on two levels with, on the ground floor, an entrance hall opening into a large living room, a superbly equipped solid oak Mouvement kitchen, a utility room, a delightful winter lounge with a Trombe wall to store the sun's heat and return it to the
inside of the house, and a shower room.

Also worthy of note are the decks and balconies on the east and south sides of the house.
On this same level there is a 50-plus sq m apartment to accommodate family or friends in complete privacy and total comfort. This contains a lounge/dining room with fitted kitchenette, a bedroom, a shower room
with toilet and as well as a private terrace with a view.

Upstairs, a vestibule leads to a study – library with an unobstructed view of the countryside, two bedrooms with walk-in wardrobes, and a big shower room with two washbasins. The house comes complete with several outbuildings: An equipment room, a basement with workshop and
wine cellar, and a carport for two or even three vehicles. Please note that a 1.25 metre high crawlspace runs under the whole house.

Outside, there is a 45 sq m covered terrace (sheltered from the mistral), a water garden with in-ground natural swimming pool, biofilter and waterfall, and an atrium to the west of the house.
Please note the wide roof overhangs and automatically closing louvred wooden shutters, which block the sun in summer and prevent the interior of the house from getting too hot.

The house is heated by solar panels (which also produce domestic hot water), supplemented by a pellet stove in the living room, or by electricity. A further advantage of the property is the double-flow mechanically controlled ventilation unit with earth-air heat exchanger, enabling the air in the house to be heated or cooled as required.

Another undeniable plus is that the famous village of Gordes (recently voted the most beautiful village in the world) can be reached easily, as can the other hilltop villages of the Luberon such as Goult, Bonnieux, Lacoste or Saint-Pantaléon.
