Nestled just five-hundred metres from the heart of the picturesque Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Le Charme is a restored Provençal farmhouse offering an authentic retreat. Tucked within a tranquil garden, this semi-detached property invites you to unwind amidst olive trees, lavender, and cypress, where nature’s beauty meets thoughtful landscaping. As you approach, the farmhouse’s traditional façade and verdant pergola hint at the warm welcome within.
Step inside, and you’ll find a home steeped in heritage yet effortlessly inviting. The ground floor begins with a welcoming Provencal kitchen, its rustic charm accented by exposed beams and weathered stone tiles. The adjacent dining room and cosy living space, complete with a stone fireplace, evoke a sense of timeless simplicity. Upstairs, the farmhouse offers three bedrooms, each uniquely configured. The primary bedroom features a plush double bed and private bathroom, with direct access to a sunlit terrace. The second bedroom, ideal for families, leads into the third, where twin beds await. Throughout, limewashed walls, antique doors, and natural materials create a serene, understated atmosphere.
The outdoor spaces of Le Charme are an extension of the farmhouse’s character, designed for relaxation and conviviality. The south-facing terrace, shaded by interlacing jasmine and vines, hosts a long wooden dining table perfect for al fresco meals. Nearby, rattan armchairs invite quiet moments with a book or glass of wine. The sparkling swimming pool is bordered by sun-drenched loungers and a shaded corner under Virginia creeper.
Beyond the immediate comforts, Saint-Rémy beckons with its charm. Wander its narrow streets, discover artisan boutiques, or explore historical treasures like the Glanum ruins and Van Gogh’s inspirations. For the adventurous, the Alpilles provide cycling and hiking trails, while gourmet markets and Provençal dining promise a feast for the senses.
Whether basking in the garden’s tranquillity, exploring local delights, or gathering with loved ones under the vine-laden pergola, Le Charme offers a holiday steeped in the art of simple pleasures.
