Architect-Designed House with Cévennes Views

Property Description

If you’re looking for a peaceful spot on the outskirts of Alès, just 30 minutes from Uzès, this 2005 architect-designed home is a must-see. It’s set in a quiet, leafy area but still keeps you close to local shops and life.


The house is mostly laid out on one level with about 136 m² of space, all sitting on a huge 4.000 m² landscaped plot. A great bonus is that part of the land is actually buildable or could be sold off separately.



The heart of the home is a really impressive living room with high cathedral ceilings, exposed beams, and a cozy fireplace for the winter.


On one side, the open-plan kitchen flows right into the living area, and on the other, you’ll find a comfortable master suite with its own shower room.


There is also a handy utility room and a separate WC on this floor. The elevated terrace is the real standout though, offering some of the best panoramic views you'll find of the Cévennes hills.



Down on the garden level, there is an extra 43 m² space with its own entrance, perfect if you want to create a rental apartment or a guest suite. It already has two large rooms and a shower room with a toilet, so converting one room into a kitchen-living area would be easy.


This is a rare find that perfectly balances a quiet lifestyle with plenty of extra potential.

Main House
This 2005 architect-designed villa in the village of Mons offers a fantastic mix of modern comfort and classic charm.

The main living space is centered around a stunning cathedral-style lounge with high ceilings, exposed beams, and a cozy fireplace. It’s a very practical home, featuring double glazing, air conditioning, and a water softener, along with plenty of built-in cupboards and a handy pantry and cellar for extra storage.

There is even a dedicated bike storage area and an intercom for added security. Energy efficiency is a big plus here too, thanks to the addition of solar panels.

The layout is mostly on one level, including a master suite with its own shower room, but the real magic happens when you step outside. You can choose between the sunny veranda, the balcony, or the elevated terrace to soak in the incredible, uninterrupted mountain views.

On the garden level, there’s a separate 43-square-meter space that is perfect for guests or a rental project. It has two large rooms and its own bathroom, so it could easily become a self-contained apartment.

Garage & Atelier
The property includes a one-car garage that currently serves as a workshop or atelier. Additionally, there is a carport with enough space to park two cars. This setup provides covered parking for three vehicles in total while offering dedicated room for DIY projects or storage.

The Garden
The property sits on nearly 4,000 square meters of landscaped gardens that aren't overlooked at all, giving you total privacy.

Because part of the land is actually buildable and can be separated, it’s a smart investment for anyone looking to expand or sell off a plot later.

Location
The house is tucked away in the quiet village of Mons, offering a peaceful, laid-back atmosphere on the outskirts of Alès and just 30 minutes from Uzès.

It’s a spot that really gives you the best of both worlds, sitting right on the edge of the countryside with incredible, wide-open views of the Cévennes hills. Since the property isn't overlooked, you get total privacy while still being part of a friendly village community.

What makes this location so practical is how close you are to everything you need. The village is on a local bus route, and you’re just a short trip away from a variety of shops, primary schools, and secondary schools. Even larger shopping centers and city amenities are within easy reach, so you can enjoy a calm, country lifestyle without giving up the convenience of being close to town and transport.
