Located in the center of l'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, this town house can't be beat. Centuries old, it occupies a tranquil location beside the Sorgue River next to a small park. From here, you can wander through narrow winding streets across pedestrian bridges and past moss-covered water wheels. And you're just steps away from the center of town with all services, shops, cafés and restaurants.

The three-story house has undergone complete renovation and combines traditional wood and plaster ceilings with quality appliances and ceramics as well as all conveniences including high-speed internet access. Wood antique pieces accent terra cotta tile floors, white-washed walls and casual, contemporary furniture.

Entry is into a comfortable sitting area with a daybed sofa, rattan armchairs, desk, wood café table with two chairs and an excellent library of Provence guidebooks. A staircase leads to the second floor with a spacious open-plan room where there are living and dining areas along with a full kitchen. The room feels open and airy thanks to white walls and large windows overlooking colorful houses, rooftops and a charming water wheel. In the living area are an upholstered sofa and easy chairs grouped around a glass-topped wrought iron coffee table. Between the easy chairs is a wood cabinet with television. Adjacent is the dining area with round wood table and chairs for 4 people. Behind is the well-designed and fully-equipped kitchen with white and gray-trimmed cabinets, mosaic tile counters and all appliances.

There are 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Both bedrooms are decorated with lovely bedcovers, curtains, wood side tables, chests and provide ample wardrobe space. The bathrooms are near the bedrooms and include lovely tilework, showers, vessel sinks, toilet facilities and heated towel bars. One of the bedrooms with a queen bed (convertible to twins) and its bathroom are located on the ground floor behind the sitting area. The second bedroom with queen bed and its bathroom are on the top (third floor).

Completing the town house is a roof-top terrace accessed from a landing on the third floor. It sports an arbored dining area with teak table, chairs and barbecue. With no neighbors adjoining the side and back of the house, all-day light and sunshine pour in from three sides. It's the perfect spot to admire picturesque Provençal roof tops while writing postcards, relaxing with a book, or enjoying leisurely al fresco meals.

An ideal home for experiencing life in a Provençal town and exploring all the best of the region.

Note: this is a very popular property. It is best to reserve it 6-12 months in advance.
