General Description

Located in the hamlet of Maubec between Cavaillon and Coustellet, this quintessential village house has expansive interiors and grounds, a certain rustic elegance prevails both in design and atmosphere and consists of main house and guest house accommodating 10 guests with its 5 air-conditioned bedrooms. It also has a Provencal garden and heated swimming pool, all in the heart of a small village at the foot of the Luberon hills. The village of Maubec has many small shops (grocery, baker, restaurant) and just up the road there are supermarkets in Coustellet (4km) and Cavaillon (10km). This property makes the perfect base for a truly memorable luxury holiday in France.

Combining the main house and guesthouse, there are 250 sqm of living area. On the ground floor, there is a large living room, with stone floor, with a comfy sitting, two armchairs and a large sofa, a large screen satellite TV, DVD and CD players. The open-plan fully equipped kitchen has American freezer / fridge, oven, dishwasher, toaster, including a dining corner sitting 8 with Provencal crockery. At the back of the kitchen, there is a laundry room with washing machine and dryer. On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms with wooden flooring and en-suite bathrooms. The guesthouse is across the courtyard and on the ground floor it has an entrance hall / bar / living area with TV, armchairs, library, table, zinc bar and fridge. Still at the garden level, there is a first double bedroom with en-suite bathroom, which has direct access to the courtyard through its French doors. And there are two other double bedrooms on the first floor, both with en-suite bathrooms but one is with wooden floor and has separate WC, while the other has tile floor and has been thus decorated that it creates an Arabian atmosphere.

Outside the fully enclosed property there is a 200 sqm courtyard between the main house and guest house and a lovely garden of 400 sqm. The courtyard has a covered terrace offering an alfresco dining area with BBQ, and wrought iron dining table, shaded areas with sun chairs and a WC and shower. Going through an arch under the courtyard covered terrace there is access to the garden, planted with different varieties of roses and bamboo, and the heated swimming pool 5 m x 9 m, depth 1.30m with electric cover and soft filtration without chlorine and salt. By the pool, which is surrounded by sun chairs, there is a covered area with a bar and ping-pong table.
