Renaissance-Style Manor House With 4 Hectares Of Parklands

About the Property

A listed Renaissance-style manor house, the “Mas de la Brune” was constructed in 1572 and is set within 4 hectares of parklands at the foot of the Alpilles mountains in Eygalières, France. This remarkable property features three interconnected constructions, including the prominent manor house, which stands as a unique architectural gem amidst the wooded landscape. The manor house, known for its striking watch-turret and biblical paraphrases sculpted on its façade, is believed to have been built by master mason Gaston-Flayelle, who also designed the “Hôtel de Manville” in Les-Baux-de-Provence. The estate includes a more recent 18th-century building that once served as staff accommodation, nestled in the shade of a three-hundred-year-old lime tree. Additionally, a rehabilitated farmhouse is located to the east, separated from the manor by a row of cypress trees, and opens onto a vast courtyard that connects to the formal French garden. The property is enriched by the soothing sounds of water flowing from the Alpilles Mountains, accessible via the canal of the same name. A spacious tiled swimming pool, discreetly concealed within a copse of laurel bushes, provides a private retreat, while a car park, capable of accommodating ten vehicles, is situated in the shade of mulberry plane trees.
