Outside

At the front of the house is a balcony with table and chairs and wide open views to the south. To the left is the famous Montagne Sainte-Victoire, which tells you that you are not far from the great city of Aix-en-Provence, with its arts scene, festivals, wonderful shops, markets and restaurants.

 

The balcony at the front looks south over the Provence landscape - pictured left is the view southeast and right is the view southwest.

Outside of the summer months Provence is still a very sunny place and in the cooler months this balcony is a lovely place to catch the warmth of the sun, and it is also protected from the wind.

To the back of the property, which is where you enter, there is a large terrace which is partly covered over with a beamed ceiling (pictured below). Here there is a bar, pool table and fountain. The dining table (above right) is out in the open next to this space and has views over the countryside.

The big terrace at the back has dining table and chairs as well as a shaded entertainment area with bar and fountain.
