Perched atop a hillside overlooking the picturesque Luberon valley, this unique property is set in over a hectare of beautiful countryside filled with flowers and numerous trees, offering an outstanding panoramic view and haven of peace to the sound of summer cicadas. Situated on the outskirts of the village of Joucas only 10 minutes drive away from famous Gordes, Mas Bonheur is a sublime place to relax.
Inside, living spaces are spacious and inviting, featuring a large living room, a warm dining area, and a bright kitchen, equipped with modern appliances, ideal for preparing delicious meals with family and friends. The massive historic walls and the elevation (400m above sea level) guarantee a comfortable indoor climate year-round: cool during summer and comfortably warm during the cooler months. The house boasts 4 air-conditioned ensuite bedrooms in a welcoming ambiance.
The swimming pool (10m x 4m) promises long hours of relaxation in front of a spectacular view on warm Provencal days. Every part of the outdoor spaces has been designed to maximize the tranquility and pleasure of holidaymakers. Ample seating options cater to various preferences, whether for sunbathing, leisurely reading, or simply soaking in the stunning surroundings. There is an extensive parking/boules/badminton area in front of the house and a ping-pong table is available too.
Murs is a lovely hilltop village standing 800 meters high on the Monts de Vaucluse. The village also has beautiful residences, including the birthplace of Herny IV's famous companion, Crillon the Brave, which you will have plenty of time to admire while you walk. Pay particular attention to wells, pumps and wash houses! It remains to see the triptych of Saint Gens painted by Paul Vaysson exhibited at the town Hall.
The easiest way to get to Inland Provence from the US is to fly to Marseille International Airport (MRS). If you would like to see Paris, fly to Charles de Gaulle Airport then connect directly to the TGV (high speed train) from CDG TGV2 to Avignon TGV (3 hours direct) and rent a car. You would plan to see Paris on the way back, taking the TGV from Avignon TGV to Paris Gare de Lyon, getting a cab to your hotel in the city.
