Private Mansion in the Historic Centre of Avignon

This property is on the market with Michael Zingraf Real Estate. Price is disclosed upon application with the listing agency.

The stunning property features the largest private garden in Avignon, the Gateway to Provence also known as the City of the Popes.

The historic property is in close proximity to the Palais des Papes, the largest medieval gothic palace in the world—the former papal residence was the seat of Western Christianity in the 14th century and is one of the most visited landmarks in France today.

The exceptional residence is an authentic “maison de maître”, which translates as “master’s house”, referencing the style of 18th and 19th century bourgeois mansion that would have historically been the home of a minor landowner or squire.

Beautifully presented and featuring a wealth of luxurious detailing, the 11 bedroom property spans nearly 10,000 square feet with several grand principal rooms, many of which open out onto the landscaped gardens with elegant French doors.

The private mansion has been updated for modern standards of luxury with multiple kitchens and a 1000+ square foot wellness centre with sauna and spa.

There is an abundance of natural light in the striking updated spaces, as well as several outdoor terraces and a swimming pool.

Without a doubt one of the most extraordinary properties on the market in Avignon.
