Former summer home of one of the greatest English poets of the 20th century and his celebrated wife, a gathering place for the literary figures of their time, now for sale in an idyllic setting in the Alpilles between Eygalières and Maussane-les-Alpilles. The four-bedroom stone house, whose original walls date to the 18th century, is set on a magnificent eight-hectare (almost 20-acre) terrain of fields, wild gardens, rocky crags, garrigue, olive groves and woods. Rooms include a lovely salon opening onto a stone terrace with panoramic views of the Alpilles, separate dining room, four bedrooms, two baths, kitchen and laundry. Perfect calm, tranquility and privacy. The house, tastefully updated to preserve its original features, has been well maintained and is ready for immediate occupancy without major renovations. Few properties of such character and setting still exist in the Alpilles.
