Exceptional Property for Sale in Tourrettes Sur Loup

Property Description

Ref. Welcome to 'La Ferrage,' affectionately known as the chateau by the locals, a truly unique and authentic property exuding charm, traditional Provencal architecture, and breathtaking panoramic views. Once a place where donkeys were shoed, 'La Ferrage' captures the essence of its origins in its name.

Nestled within 3 hectares of natural beauty, with stunning stone walls and graced by 265 olive trees and majestic cypress trees, 'La Ferrage' captivates with its rustic stone façade that harmoniously blends with the natural surroundings.

Crafted between 1963 and 1965 by renowned architect André Svetchine, the property comprises two magnificent stone houses. Rustic ceiling beams, light stone walls, and generous French doors with shutters that open onto inviting terraces characterize these houses, welcoming abundant natural light and gentle breezes. The smaller guest house of 140m² sits gracefully by the entrance, offering three separate apartments with a total of four bedrooms and three bathrooms, today used as guest rooms. The larger main house of approx. 300M², elevated on the property, serves as the heart of the home. Today, it houses a well-known culinary school and features five bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, accommodating a total of nine bedrooms.

Notably, the main house boasts a spectacular kitchen installed in 2000, featuring countertops crafted from local stone, solid wood cabinets handcrafted by local artisans, and a fantastic stove with ample capacity. The kitchen can comfortably seat up to 16 people and offers direct access through large doorways to a terrace with a covered barbecue area, Roger Moore’s favorite spot during his visits. It was here that the legendary actor would often enjoy a meal while taking in the stunning views.

While the property offers immense potential, it also presents an opportunity for a discerning buyer to rejuvenate and customize it to their taste, making it truly their own haven. Additionally, the property boasts a summer kitchen, a wooden chalet, parking for six cars, and a swimming pool.

'La Ferrage' invites you to immerse yourself in the tranquility of its surroundings, savor the flavors of Provence, and revel in the spectacular views that embrace this exceptional estate.
