Exceptional Property with Panoramic View over the Étang de Berre
Located in Istres, just 40 minutes from Aix‑en‑Provence, this authentic estate offers a rare living environment, between preserved nature and breathtaking views over the Étang de Berre.
Nestled off the beaten path without being isolated, the main house unfolds across nearly 6 hectares of land, in a peaceful and charming atmosphere.


The Main House
Built around 1900, the main building captivates with its character and generous volumes.
On the ground floor: a cozy living room with insert fireplace, an office, and a bright kitchen opening onto two terraces, inviting relaxation and conviviality.
Upstairs: six bedrooms and two shower rooms with WC form a functional sleeping area, with the possibility of two additional bedrooms on the top level.
The original carved wooden joinery bears witness to the period’s charm.
The garden‑level floor houses various complementary spaces, including a laundry room and several rooms to convert as you wish.
While the house may need some refreshing, it retains beautiful historic materials and remarkable potential.


Outbuildings / Dependencies
The estate also includes three annex houses as well as a renovated former dovecote, offering numerous hosting or family project possibilities:



First mas of about 200 m², fully renovated in dry stone, roof redone. It is currently laid out as four apartments, each with living room, open kitchen, two bedrooms, shower room and WC.
Second building, also restored in dry stone, offers a T3/4 dwelling with living room, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and two shower rooms with WC.
Third house, former caretaker’s house in generally good condition, comprises a living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room with WC.
Finally, a former stone dovecote, fully renovated, houses a charming T1 with shower room and WC.

Exteriors & Features
Outside, a superb saltwater infinity pool (12 × 5 m) offers a stunning panoramic view of the Étang de Berre.
A shaded pétanque court and a workshop complete this exceptional environment.
The commanding view over the surrounding landscape gives the property a unique atmosphere.

The village of Istres, vibrant year‑round, provides shops, schools and quick access to main roads.
Between the Alpilles and the Mediterranean, the region seduces with its incomparable natural and cultural heritage.
Marseille‑Provence Airport is reachable in 45 minutes, and the Aix‑en‑Provence TGV station in 50 minutes.
