Between the Plains and the Vaucluse Mountains: The Elegance of a Mas with a View, just minutes from Pernes-Les-Fontaines

Located between the village of Pernes-les-Fontaines and the hilltop gem of La Roque-sur-Pernes, this 1880 farmhouse (Mas) embodies the perfect balance between Provençal authenticity and contemporary comfort. Built in the heart of a preserved countryside setting, this property is tucked away at the end of a private lane, offering absolute tranquility and an unobstructed view that stretches across the Avignon plain to the hills of the Gard. The residence, entirely redesigned for fluid and functional living, opens onto a light-filled ground floor. The entrance, complete with guest facilities, leads to the reception rooms: a fully equipped kitchen connecting to a convivial dining room. A warm living room, the true heart of the home, is enhanced by an insert fireplace and a pellet stove for cozy winter evenings. All living areas open broadly onto a south-west facing terrace, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living. Upstairs, the sleeping area consists of a first bedroom with an en-suite shower room, a master bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe, a full bathroom, a study (or additional bedroom), and a third attic bedroom. The renovation has preserved the soul of the building: Provençal-style ceilings, original beams, and exposed stone walls harmonize with travertine floors and refined parquet flooring upstairs. Custom-made forged iron joinery with burglar-resistant double glazing highlights the noble character of the house. The property extends over nearly 7 hectares, of which 5,000 m² is enclosed by walls and fencing, perfect for keeping animals safely. The garden, a true living painting, features an array of white oaks, pines, olive trees, and Mediterranean flora. A vegetable garden and a chicken coop complete this idyllic setting. For relaxation, a 10m x 5m swimming pool (reinforced PVC) with an automatic cover and a fountain sits facing the panorama, surrounded by a wood-effect tiled deck that invites contemplation. Features and Outbuildings: Outbuildings: Large independent garage with electric gate, carport, and adjoining workshop. Technical comfort: The owners have connected the house to mains water, a private borehole (70m), reversible air conditioning, an alarm and video surveillance system, automatic irrigation, and an automated gate. Structure: New roof and compliant sanitation system. Whether as a primary residence or a second home, this Mas is a rare opportunity. Its elevated position, the quality of its restoration, and its wooded environment make it a privileged place to live—timeless, yet close to everything. Ideally located, the property is just 5 minutes from Pernes-Les-Fontaines and Saint-Didier, 20 minutes from Carpentras and its train station, 45 minutes from the Avignon TGV station, and 1 hour 15 minutes from Marseille airport.
