LA CAVE /LEJASMIN

575,000 Euros

Previously a working wine cave and barn with the viticulteur's house.
Stone built in the typical style of this region. Lovingly restored over
the last 11 years to create a magnificent and unique property which enjoys
fabulous views of the garrigue and vineyards. Not overlooked , a little
corner of paradise. It was even chosen by two well known british artists
as their base in 2003, when several paintings were done of the actual
property, such was their attraction to it.
