House in Manosque , Alpes-de-Hautes-Provence , Provence Cote d Azur

This very large property (512 m2) dates from 1984, but was completely renovated in 2000 and consists of a large main house (approx. 425 m2) and a smaller apartment in the same house (approx. 85 m2). The approx. 120 m2 living area is the heart of the main house. Here you will find a large entrance area with an elegant staircase, a cosy fireplace corner, a large dining area, right next to the 29 m2 fully equipped kitchen, and another corner for reading, dreaming or relaxing at the small bar. The relaxation corner is right next to the indoor pool (10 x 4.50 m) and the spa with Jacuzzi. So it fits perfectly! Through full glazing, you can easily see the pool from the living room. That is something very special!

On the ground floor, 1 bedroom/study, a shower and a toilet complete the space. There is underfloor heating throughout the ground floor.

You can reach the upper floor either by lift or via an elegant staircase. There you will first find yourself in the billiard room, from which 3 bedrooms and the sun-flooded studio lead off. The master suite with bathroom and separate toilet is 42 m2 and completely surrounded by a magnificent terrace with views of Manosque, the Plateau de Valensole and the Southern Alps in the distance. The other two bedrooms (each approx. 15 m2) share a toilet and bathroom. One of these two rooms has an inner double door leading to the studio.

The sunlit studio is an artist's dream. Here you can indulge in your hobby and forget about time. The entrance to the studio is also equipped with a wheelchair accessible lift.

An external staircase and a sun terrace lead to the granny flat, which currently consists of two bedrooms and a living room. A small kitchen, a bathroom and a toilet make this area completely independent. However, the flat can easily be connected to the main flat as there is a connecting door between the billiard room and the flat, which is currently closed. In its current state, the flat is ideal for renting out, but when the connecting door is reopened, it will be ideal for family visits.

The property is situated on a plot of approximately 13,168 m2, is fully fenced and has a fully automatic entrance gate. On the property on the southern slope there are about 100 olive trees (80-100 litres of olive oil per season), 20 fruit trees and some truffle oaks which guarantee about 6-8 truffles per year. Provided you can find them! All plants on the estate are connected to an automatic irrigation system and are therefore well supplied (approx. 1,000 M3 of tap water; approx. 500 EUR per year).

The property is situated between Pierrevert and Manosque and has a magnificent view of Manosque, the Plateau de Valensole and, in the far distance, the partly snow-covered peaks of the Southern Alps. And being on a south-facing slope, you are well protected from the cold north wind.

There are many parking spaces for cars, but only one small garage for a rather small car. However, it is possible to build, as there is still an area that is considered buildable.

The property tax is currently about EUR 5,600 per year. There is, however, one very good piece of news: the property has three independently switched combinations of solar panels. Two of them are for self-consumption and the energy from one solar panel combination is sold on to EDF. The owner receives a cheque for about EUR 2,800 every year. And the average electricity bill for the entire property is only about 50 EUR per month. That's incredible for such a big home !

The heating system is centralised and runs on fuel. There is underfloor heating everywhere on the ground floor.
