Villa Augusta faces south across a vast and spectacular private valley, planted with truffle oaks, two minutes from the village of Buoux in the Luberon National Park. Seemingly miles from anywhere with its wide-open spaces, tranquility and wildlife, this lovely old house is equidistant between the market town of Apt and the medieval and exquisite town of Lourmarin with its galleries and restaurants. The surrounding countryside is very well known for rock climbing and hiking and with a fabulous old Chateau and an extraordinary medieval fort nearby, the area is also a painter and photographers' delight.

Nestled on several hectares of land with lavender fields, truffle oaks and natural bush land, Villa Augusta is close what one imagines in the picture books of Provence. It is a delightful two story stone house with sage green shutters and picture windows and doors framing beautiful views and the pretty gardens. Inside the house are thick stone walls, tiled floors and exposed beams of traditional Provençal architecture. Because of its position, light floods the house from dawn to sunset. There is also a very nice pool set away from the main house and a charming summer house with a guest room. Both also have marvelous views.
