HOUSE for sale in MALLEMORT - 13370

Mallemort lies in a country setting between the Luberon and Durance. This town in Les Bouches-du-Rhône forms part of the Aix-Marseille-Provence metropolis, and had about 7,000 residents in 2015. From the old village it once was, it has kept narrow cobbled streets such as the charming passage of the Cours Marius Taché and Rue du Cosmonaute. The Saint-Michel Church dominates its historic centre. Behind it, the ruins of the castle and dungeon, fully preserved, recall the past of this village once occupied by the Bishops of Marseille. On the Durance, the dyke called La "Digue des Prises" offers superb panoramic views, while also protecting the urban area from any spates or flooding from this famous river. The town is lively all year long with its Provençal market, semi-nocturnal markets, plays and concerts.

A property market mainly made up of houses and permanent homes.

Most of the homes offered by Mallemort consist of houses. There are, in fact, 2.5 times more houses than apartments. They are year-round rather than holiday homes, the majority offering large surface areas (5 main rooms or more). Buyers are drawn by both the quiet environment enjoyed by Mallemort and its closeness to the Marseille airport, villages in the Luberon, the Camargue and Aix-en-Provence.
