  The hamlet of Pontèsis reached by a small road winding across the fields, only a few minutes away from the charming village of Puyricard, well known for its archaeological site (Oppidum) and its fine chocolate making.
  There, on the edge of the Hameau, stands an old converted barn that has become a lovely home.

  The house, is set in a corner of the hamlet. Well protected from view by hedges and walls, it is accessible through wooden double doors painted white, opening under a wrought iron archway covered with vines and flowers and leading to a gravelled terrace with a well and an acacia tree. Outside there is a private covered parking area.

  What a picture as you walk in! your eye immediately goes to the fuchsia pink mass of oleanders next to the BBQ. then the mound of flowers next to the blocked up well and the stone table, altar shaped, under the tree. Then you will take in the outdoor dining room sheltered under a roofed area with a BBQ at the end, hidden behind the oleanders.
  There are wrought iron tables for meals, canvas garden chairs and potted flowers colourfully scattered around the terrace.

  This almond green shuttered house is built in length rather than height with rooms leading from one to the other. You start from a very well appointed kitchen in traditional Provençal style, a lovely dining room followed by an entrance hall with guest toilets , a large lounge with a bow window looking onto a field and a television room with satellite TV which has a door opening directly out into a field between lavender borders.
  The whole area is mainly south facing with numerous French windows opening onto the terrace and further out the garden with its flowers and plants.
  On the left, beyond a hedge, there is the swimming pool surrounded by a large white paved area with a fountain.

  Two staircases lead to the bedrooms on the first floor, one from the bottom end of the kitchen and the other from the entrance, next to the guest toilets.
  The master bedroom (with a 1.60m bed) and the en-suite bathroom (separate bath and shower, W.C.) are situated slightly apart from the rest of the house, at the top. Windows look out over the terrace, the garden and the fields. This bedroom is peaceful and relaxing. There is a large dressing room.
