Wonderfully located in authentic Provence, within walking distance of the pretty village of Viens, le Mas des Flaneries is a beautiful property boasting exceptional views of the Luberon and surrounding countryside. It is the perfect house for groups and families looking to share wonderful memories out of it all, yet within walking distance of the local village and its bakery, grocery shop and restaurant. The Mas is also within easy reach of Rustrel and its Colorado Provencal, and the famous market of Apt.
The property was entirely renovated in 2023, decorated to a very high standard, with high-end finishings. It consists of 5 bedrooms, with two on the ground floor and three upstairs. Each bedroom has been carefully finished, with simple, clean lines and lots of light. The fully-equipped kitchen with large pantry, is open to the spacious living and dining areas. Doors from the living room lead to an enormous terrace (~80sqm) with panoramic views of the valley and mountains. The back side of the living room leads to the pool area with large pool, covered pool house and a beautiful terraced garden.
There are several different comfortable areas outdoors to sunbathe, nap or read a book – places to gather and places to take a moment alone. For peace of mind, the pool area is gated and features a 13m x 5m infinity pool surrounded by lawn area… perfect for families. A large, equipped summer kitchen comes complete with an induction hob, a dishwasher, barbecue and pizza oven.
For a true taste of the Provençal countryside in the most enchanting décor, le Mas des Flaneries is the ideal choice.
Located near two beautiful authentic hilltop villages, near Apt in the Luberon Mountains. Sight seeing, hiking and cycling are the most popular activities.
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.
