In the picturesque village of Maussane-les-Alpilles, La Courbe unveils a rare and captivating Provençal abode with its own private swimming pool. Steeped in centuries of history yet exquisitely renovated for contemporary comfort, this remarkable 4-bedroom home centres around a lovingly restored 16th-century chapel, now a striking living space complete with vaulted ceilings and original stone engravings.

Indeed, part of La Courbe dates back to the early 1500s when it was the village chapel, then expanded again in the 18th and 19th centuries. Throughout the years, the building was an important part of the village community until it was sold in the late 1700s. How wonderful that it has now been transformed into a unique and historic holiday home.  

Nowadays, character meets modern charm inside La Courbe. The main house unfolds across two levels, with the ground floor offering a stylish open-plan kitchen flowing onto a patio with shaded terrace and barbecue. Meanwhile, the chapel-turned-lounge invites convivial moments and evening billiards beneath the centuries-old arches.

The four main bedrooms are so pretty with individual features such as exposed stone walls, wood beamed ceilings or handsome furnishings contrasting contemporary comforts including air-conditioning and private or en suite bath/shower rooms.

Comfortably sleeping up to 8 guests, there is one bedroom on the ground floor, another two upstairs (alongside a connecting single bedroom on request) whilst the fourth bedroom is in an annexe with its own entrance.

It feels like such a privilege to be able to enjoy your walled garden where Provençal life moves at a gentler pace. A heated swimming pool promises relaxation on warm afternoons while the pool house with lounge seating creates a pretty spot for aperitifs, surrounded by mature trees and the scent of rosemary. Wander across to the patio to fire up the barbecue and dine al-fresco beneath shade.

La Courbe’s location is as charming and convenient as the house itself. You're within easy reach of boulangeries, restaurants and café terraces on the main village square. Even closer, the Thursday morning market bursting with Provençal flavours is just a few steps away. Meanwhile, Les Alpilles’ dramatic landscapes are yours to explore from tranquil olive groves and idyllic hilltop villages to artistic towns and nearby golf courses.

For those in search of authenticity, character and Provençal heritage, La Courbe invites you to experience village life through a uniquely historic lens in the heart of Les Alpilles.
