Description

The property is situated on a wooded plot whose natural relief has been broadly preserved. From the road, a driveway passes through the vegetation leading to a parking area in the middle of the plot. From there, several paths lead to the various buildings. The two-storey main house was built in the 1980s and is located slightly above the rest of the plot. Its situation takes advantage of the site’s topography and boasts several outside areas on different levels. The rendered facades are topped by a gabled roof made of barrel tiles. Several patios surround the living areas and a self-contained edifice completes the property. The main houseThe upper part of the house is occupied by the reception rooms. The living room combines a lounge section and dining area beneath an exposed roof frame. In the centre of the room, there is a wood-burning stove, while wide openings lead out onto a patio overlooking the garden. Next to the living room, a kitchen leads to a second patio where there is a summer kitchen with a barbecue. The flooring in the living spaces is mainly made up of terracotta tiles. An indoor staircase leads down to the lower level. The landing at the bottom leads to a bathroom, two bedrooms and a spare bedroom, followed by a hallway leading to a shower room as well as a bedroom.

Thanks to its independence, it could fulfil a variety of purposes, for example, to welcome family and friends, serve as an independent workspace or be used for seasonal rental accommodation.The groundsThey are one of the property’s main assets and are laid out on relief that is unusual on the island, combining undergrowth, clearings, stone walls and rocky outcrops. The paths wind through the maritime pines and evergreen oaks, hugging the natural incline of the land without altering its character. Carpets of moss, pine needles and coastal vegetation contribute to an unexpected forest atmosphere only several minutes from the ocean. In spite of the presence of other houses in the neighbourhood, the density of the vegetation provides a sense of privacy. From the patios as well as the various levels of the plot, the view mainly takes in the trees and the light filtering through their canopy.
