20th c. architecture for sale cassis in france

Built of stone almost thirty years ago, the house is south-east facing. Backing onto the hillside and firmly embedded into the rock, it dominates the surrounding hillsides and a village with its 155 m2 of terrace. It features partly exposed stone walls.
Past a large wrought-iron gate, a shaded alleyway leads to the house. The path continues towards a converted outbuilding, a sheltered parking area and second access to the property.

The house

Vehicles park at the foot of the house, either outside or in a sheltered parking area. On this level, a large open space serves as a storage area. A few steps lead to another level, the main living area. A terrace with a fountain is just in front of the entrance and continues alongside the living room.

Ground floor
Access is via an old-style steel-framed glazed door into a small conservatory built against the rock. Past a heavy wooden arched door, one walks into a main room measuring 65 m2 with a monumental stone fireplace and a stained glass window. This room, with its very high ceiling opening on to a kitchen area features columns supporting numerous stone arches of different sizes. It comprises two large picture windows that open on to the large terrace from where there is a dominating view. The windows are protected by medieval-style railings. A cloakroom, a shower, and a laundry/boiler room built in the rock complete this level. There are terracotta floor tiles throughout.
Floor
From the sitting room, a flight of stone stairs leads to the upper floor. It continues into a gallery hall overlooking the main living quarters through the arches. Four bedrooms, all of which, have their own terrace and parquet floorings. The master bedroom, facing north-east, has a stone ribbed vaulting and cornerstone. It has a toilet, shower, washbasin and wardrobe. A door opens directly on to a terrace and a swimming pool. Another bedroom, to the west, has a bed on a stone pedestal and a few steps lead to a south-facing terrace that overhangs the main entrance. The east-facing bedroom has direct access to a stone toboggan sliding down in to the swimming pool. The last bedroom, south-east facing, is also close to the swimming pool. The bathroom has a vaulted ceiling and there is a separate toilet.
