Description
At an altitude of 1,100 metres, not far from Apt, this former stone washerwoman's farm extends over more than 50 hectares and dominates the unspoilt landscape of Lagarde-d'Apt, in the heart of the wild and luminous Luberon. With no neighbours or nuisances, it offers a rare setting conducive to peace and quiet and a life in the heart of nature. Woods, meadows, lavender and low stone walls unfold in total silence. The main building, built of dry stone and old tiles, offers almost 500 m2 of living space around a courtyard in the style of a large Provencal farmhouse. Soberly restored, it retains its period soul - French ceilings, old floors, monumental fireplace - while incorporating comfort and modernity. The south-facing rooms, divided between two wings, open wide onto the countryside. The main house features several living rooms bathed in light thanks to large windows, six large bedrooms upstairs, including a master suite of more than 40 m2, as well as two suites with independent access. An outbuilding of approx. 125 m2 could be used to accommodate guests, caretakers or to develop a hospitality or agricultural project. More than 400 m2 (4,305 sq ft) of outbuildings complete this property, including two sheds of 125 and 135 m2 (1,615 and 1,615 sq ft), a garage in the former distillery, an authentic wine cellar and workshops. Two rainwater recovery tanks provide a reserve of around 100 m3 for outside watering, while the house is supplied with mains water. The drainage system meets current standards and central heating is provided by a wood pellet boiler. Fire hydrant. Accessible via a carriage road, just a few minutes from Auribeau and close to Apt, this rare property, sold fully furnished with all maintenance equipment, combines freedom, nature and authenticity. A place to recharge your batteries for those seeking a sober, poetic way of life, or to develop a tourism and/or farming project. Contact us today to find out more.

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.
The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.
This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £97,218 more.
