Mas Prométhée

Provençal authenticity

The happy owners of Mas Prométhée have taken great care to preserve its Provençal authenticity while adorning it with modern equipment.

The mas is the perfect family holiday home. It is located in a beautiful pine forest with direct access to hiking trails and only 3kms from Saint-Rémy-de-Provence.

This old farmhouse, completely restored in 2010, is nestled in the hollow of lush greenery planted with an olive grove, a wood and a lavender field.

Mas Promethée, which faces south, is arranged as follows:

2 spacious living rooms with fireplace, facing the large terrace with an incredible view of the Alpilles and the swimming pool. The large bay windows in the living room open completely and thus give an incredible feeling of open space to the outside.

A dining area that can be transformed into a billiard room, a high-end equipped independent kitchen offer a convivial and functional space with its central island and a dining table for 10 people.

The 1st floor is accessible by 3 staircases (including an external staircase) and has 6 elegant south-facing bedrooms, too. The view from the rooms is spectacular: the garden and the swimming pool are in the foreground, the Alpilles mountains in the background.

5 of the bedrooms are double bedrooms with king size and queen size beds. The 6th bedroom can accommodate children with 3 single beds. 5 bathrooms complete the sleeping area.
