Description
Picture yourself sipping a glass of Côtes du Rhône on your private terrace as the late afternoon sun bathes the Provençal countryside in golden light. The air carries the scent of lavender and wild thyme from nearby fields, while the sound of cicadas provides the authentic soundtrack to your summer evenings in this 163-square-meter stone house. Located in Sainte-Cécile-les-Vignes, a quintessential wine village in the heart of Vaucluse, this property offers the perfect balance between peaceful countryside living and village convenience, just steps from local shops, restaurants, and weekly markets that define the rhythm of Provençal life.
This substantial stone residence spans three floors, offering versatile living spaces that adapt to your vacation needs throughout the seasons. The ground floor welcomes you with a bright, spacious living room where exposed stone walls and period features tell the story of generations past. The kitchen opens directly onto the terrace, creating that seamless indoor-outdoor flow essential to Mediterranean living. Imagine preparing breakfast with fresh croissants from the village boulangerie, then carrying your coffee outside to plan the day ahead while overlooking your private garden and 6-meter by 3.5-meter swimming pool.
The first floor houses two generous bedrooms, a modern shower room, and separate toilet, providing comfortable accommodation for family or guests. Ascend to the second floor and discover three additional bedrooms tucked beneath the eaves, each with the character that only authentic stone construction can provide. A second shower room on this level ensures everyone has space and privacy. With five bedrooms and four bathrooms total, this house comfortably accommodates extended family gatherings, multiple couples traveling together, or generates excellent rental income during peak Provence tourism seasons.
Sainte-Cécile-les-Vignes sits at the crossroads of some of southern France's most coveted destinations. Drive 15 minutes north to Vaison-la-Romaine, where Roman ruins rival those in Italy and the medieval hilltop village provides endless exploration. Orange, with its UNESCO-listed Roman theatre, lies 20 minutes south. The legendary villages of the Luberon, including Gordes and Roussillon, are within an hour's reach for day trips. Mount Ventoux, the giant of Provence beloved by cyclists worldwide, dominates the eastern horizon, offering hiking in summer and skiing in winter at its summit station.
The surrounding Vaucluse countryside defines what international buyers seek in a Provence vacation home. This is serious wine country, where the Côtes du Rhône Villages appellation produces robust reds from old-vine Grenache and Syrah. Dozens of family-owned domaines within cycling distance welcome visitors for tastings, and the annual grape harvest in September transforms the entire region into a celebration of viticulture. Local markets overflow with seasonal produce: white asparagus in spring, cherries and apricots in early summer, melons and tomatoes at peak season, then truffles and wild mushrooms as autumn arrives.
Year-round, this location delivers the authentic Provençal lifestyle. Summer means lazy pool days punctuated by visits to nearby villages, evening aperitifs on the terrace, and dinner at family-run restaurants where menus change with the harvest. The Avignon Theatre Festival in July brings world-class performances just 40 minutes away. Autumn offers truffle markets, wine harvest celebrations, and perfect weather for exploring hilltop villages without summer crowds. Winter sees Mont Ventoux's slopes open for skiing while the village maintains its unhurried pace. Spring explodes with color as lavender fields begin their show and weekly markets resume their full outdoor glory.
The property's edge-of-village setting provides the best of both worlds. Walk to the village center in minutes for fresh bread, newspapers, and morning coffee at the café where locals gather. Yet your private garden and pool area offer complete tranquility, with no through traffic and mature plantings ensuring privacy. The 34-square-meter boiler room provides ample storage for bicycles, outdoor furniture, and all the equipment vacation living requires. The shared access arrangement within the small 11-unit co-ownership means minimal fees while maintaining well-kept common areas.
For international buyers, accessibility proves exceptional. Avignon TGV station connects to Paris in 2 hours 40 minutes and to London via the Eurostar-TGV combination. Marseille-Provence Airport, serving numerous European cities, sits 90 minutes south. Lyon-Saint-Exupéry Airport offers intercontinental connections within 2 hours north. The A7 and A9 autoroutes provide easy driving access to the Mediterranean coast, the Alps, and Spain.
The move-in ready condition means you can begin enjoying your Provence lifestyle immediately. Recent updates ensure modern comfort while preserving period character. The private pool, increasingly rare in village properties at this price point, adds significant rental appeal. Properties in Sainte-Cécile-les-Vignes consistently achieve strong summer rental rates, with many owners covering annual expenses through 8-10 weeks of letting. The local market remains stable, with international demand for authentic Provence villages showing continued growth.
At 330,000 euros, this property represents compelling value in the current Provence market, where comparable five-bedroom houses with pools in tourist villages often exceed 400,000 euros. The generous square meterage, authentic stone construction, and versatile layout provide excellent potential for personalization.
