Full Description: Right in the heart of Provence, St. Maximin spreads out at the foot of the St. Baume Mountains; it is at equal distance between the Alps and the sea. This traditional and old fashioned village is expanding with the development of a group of apartments and houses within the grounds of the old convent right in its very centre.
There are 51 apartments and houses ranging from studios all the way to 3 bedroom duplex villas. The development is modest in design and is made up of 5 buildings of 3 stories’ each. The apartments are spacious measuring between 28m2 for a studio up to 91m2 for a large house. They have been designed in a colonial style, reminiscent of the old houses favored by the gentry of the past. Local materials have been used to ensure authenticity, such as rounded terracotta tiles and rose and ochre coloured plasters.
The buildings are spread amongst gardens, paths and cypress trees and share a large outdoor swimming pool. The grounds were once a part of a large convent which still stands today and are only 200m from the town’s central market square.
The apartments benefit from:
Electric roller blinds
Digicode and interphone access
Triple lock security
Electronically gated underground parking
Outdoor parking
Satellite and cable connection
The development is also secure due to the fact that it is a private and electronically gated.
All the while being economically dynamic, St. Maximin has kept its traditions. This city is renowned for its historical and artistic endowment, which is apparent throughout the old city and the medieval Jewish quarter.
One mustn't miss the St. Madeleine Basilica (in fact Mary Magdalene came here after the death of Jesus, and then died in St. Baume), and in the old city, the royal convent, the Arcades and the Hotel Dieu.
