Facing the Luberon : Contemporary wood-frame passive house with low energy consumption.

Elegant contemporary low-energy house with infinity pool in a dominant position, set on a hillside in a residential area near the villages of St-Saturnin-les-Apt and Villars.

On entering the property, you will discover this stunning residence, built in 2019 in the form of a modern timber-framed bastide with grey Douglas fir cladding, with a usable floor area of almost 180 m².

The entrance is from the rear, on the north side, and opens onto a large living room bathed in light thanks to its multiple picture windows opening onto the panoramic view. The wow effect is guaranteed!

Between the living room with its TV area and the dining room, a superb wrought-metal staircase leads up to a Canadian Bullerjan stove, a real work of art that heats the whole house.

At the far end is the simple, modern kitchen around a central island. It opens onto an adjoining awning, a veritable summer dining room offering a breathtaking panorama.

On the east side there is bedroom I with a large cupboard and en-suite shower room that opens onto the south-facing terrace, a separate wc with washbasin and a utility room.

On the first floor, there is a large study on the right, followed opposite by bedroom II en suite with dressing room, shower room and Japanese toilet. These two areas are glazed and mezzanine onto the living room to maintain privacy while benefiting from vertical and external views, and to let in as much natural light as possible. To the left, a corridor leads to bedroom III with its private panoramic terrace and shower room.

From the entrance hall, an armoured door gives access to a large garage/workshop and utility room at the rear. Parallel to this is a second, virtually identical room with space for 2 vehicles. These 2 garages with their stone facades (Espeil rock) are perfectly integrated and partly underground.

Comfort and convenience: overall quality features for a passive, ecological and very economical house, sandstone floors, Millet double-glazed sp10 aluminium joinery, electric blinds with adjustable shading devices, central heating by Bullerjan stove and reversible air-conditioning, double-flow ventilation connected to a Canadian well, water softener, thermodynamic water heater, septic tank, fibre-optic internet, solar panels powering 2 lithium batteries, alarm, cameras, home automation, vertical insulation using rice straw and hedgehog, encircled by reinforced concrete walls as a crawl space, self-supporting electric sliding gate.

In front of the house is a large wooden terrace that frames the 10 x 4 metre concrete infinity pool, which benefits from maximum sunlight. The whole space is very well designed, allowing you to enjoy the surroundings and the views without any nuisance.

The grounds of almost 2,500 m² are mostly garrigue, with holm oaks and a few olive trees. It sits in a dominant position on a hillside, with views over the villages of Saint-Saturnin-Les-Apt, Gordes, Roussillon and Goult, with the Luberon as a backdrop.
