Property Description
This is a rare opportunity, a beautiful restoration of an 18th century Mas with roots far older. Care has been taken with design and quality, ensuring this is a comfortable, bright and spacious 4/5 bedroom home. Set with unsurpassed views of the lovely Cevennes and the spectacular Mt Bouquet, it is within 2km from a lovely village with all amenities, 15 min of the major towns of Ales and St Ambroix. Historic Nimes and charming Mediaeval Uzes are within easy reach, as are the beaches and wildlife of the Camargue. There are international Airports within 2 hours, and the fast train to Paris is easily accessible. This "mas" is in an idyllic location, quiet but convenient and with some of the best views possible. Set on about 9000 m2 of fenced grounds; but a larger adjacent plot is also available.

* Location
Rousson, a semi-rural town, has a rich historical heritage. It was a fiefdom of the Rochemore d'Aigremont and then the Agulhac de Beaumefort. This heritage is now highlighted with the 12th century church, stained glass windows, 16th century castle in which floats a scent of a legend (Louis XIII and Richelieu, who came to sign the Peace of Ales, perhaps slept there in 1629...), Florentine square where the water of the fountain blends harmoniously with the vision of a sundial to better experience the passing of time...
But Rousson is a town focused on the present, with an intense community life marked by a commitment to sports, social life, popularity and quality of lifestyle.
