Former hotel with independent apartments in Cap Bénat

The freedom to welcome family and friends while preserving everyone’s privacy gives this property its distinctive character. In a hilltop Provençal village, a former hotel reimagined by an architect combines the space of a family home with the tranquillity of a Mediterranean setting. Days here might unfold around the garden, panoramic views and gatherings that stretch into the evening, in a house where everyone can also find a space of their own.

Description

The tranquillity of a hilltop village, the spirit of a family home

In a hilltop Provençal village, this former hotel has found a new purpose without losing its historic character. Completely reimagined by an architect, it is now a private residence of over 500 m² (5,382 sq ft), its generous rooms and natural light lending themselves to this new chapter. Its Mediterranean surroundings and tranquillity give it the feel of a country property, while keeping it firmly rooted in the village.

The transformation has preserved what sets the former hotel apart while giving it the flexibility of a family home. Arranged as several independent apartments, it can bring generations together, welcome loved ones or lend itself to a hospitality venture, with privacy for all. The balance between the building’s history and its present-day use gives this property an identity worth discovering in person.
