About this property
Set among cypress trees with the soft silhouettes of the Alpilles in the distance, Villa Laurent unfolds as a picture-perfect Provençal retreat close to Saint-Remy. The garden is a sensory delight, filled with fragrant roses, herbs and olive trees, inviting long afternoons beneath the sun. As evening falls, the gentle glow of lighting sets the scene for pétanque matches and lingering al fresco dinners beneath the arbour, where conversation carries easily into the warm night air.
Recently renovated to an exceptional standard, this soulful, air-conditioned home balances authenticity with refined comfort. Natural materials, calming feng shui influences and elegant furnishings create interiors that feel both elevated and restful. Light pours into the open living spaces, where a fully equipped kitchen flows seamlessly into a dining and living area designed for sociable gatherings. Bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged, with four pretty doubles, three of which open onto the terrace with romantic views, and a triple bunk-bed room ideal for kids/teens, making it perfectly suited to families or groups of friends.
Days here are shaped by both relaxation and activity. Stretch out beside the swimming pool on loungers beside the olive trees, enjoy a gentle workout in the fitness room or challenge loved ones to ping-pong before retreating to the poolside bar. The expansive grounds offer space for games and quiet corners alike, while a private concierge can arrange everything from vineyard visits to in-villa massages.
