Beautifully restored 13th-century chapel in the historic old town of Avignon

This extraordinary property, with a total living area of approximately 700 m², dates back to the late 13th century and has undergone an exceptional renovation, equipping the historic residence with all the modern amenities while preserving the authenticity of its heritage. History and architecture lovers will be enchanted by the building, whose height surpasses that of the Palais des Papes, making it an exceptional place to visit. The building was founded in 1290 by the Antonite Order and served as a refuge for Benedict XIII, the last Pope of Avignon.

Desecrated during the French Revolution, the chapel was transformed into an American cultural center in 1970. Since 2012, the current owners have passionately and determinedly worked to transform the chapel into a magnificent, unique, and charming residence. By choosing high-quality materials and preserving the architectural features of the chapel, its volume and high ceilings, as well as its aesthetic and taste, this medieval residence has been brought back to life.

The complex includes a 190 m² theater with dressing rooms, a 200 m² cinema, and a 253 m² loft featuring a lovely 25 m² terrace. The loft comprises an entrance hall, a vast 120 m² living room, a master bedroom in the former apse of the church, and an alcove bedroom, along with a bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and toilet. The upper floor houses a kitchen that opens to a dining room overlooking the magnificent living room. A rooftop terrace with panoramic views of Avignon and the Palais des Papes completes this property.

The property is ideally located in the heart of the historic center of Avignon, close to theaters, restaurants, and bars. It is just 10 minutes from the high-speed train station in Avignon and 15 minutes from the A7 motorway.
