Village house with a garden and a swimming pool

Come and spend memorable moments with your loved ones in one of the finest buildings in Maussane-les-Alpilles. This tastefully renovated historic house effortlessly blends its heritage charm with modern comfort. The old chapel with high, vaulted ceilings and ancient engravings is a unique highlight of this exceptional holiday home.
The Notre-Dame-de-Piété chapel was built at the beginning of the 16th century and first entrusted to a chaplain in 1540. Although it was considerably enlarged in the 18th century, the chapel never achieved the status of a parish church, and one mass per week was celebrated in it. Nevertheless, La Chapelle remained a central place for social, political, and religious life in Maussane.
La Chapelle was serving as a community centre when, after 14 February 1790, the municipal government of Maussane-les-Baux decided to settle in Maussane. Subsequently, on 28 November 1791, the chapel of Notre-Dame-de-Piété was sold to Antoine Quenin, whose heirs in 1830 enlarged and built the house we know today.
Please note
Pool safety: The pool is not gated, therefore, young children should be supervised by adults at all times when nearby.
