Key Features: Historic triplex apartment inside Avignon’s old city walls, arranged across three levels around an interior patio, with exposed stonework, terracotta floors, stained glass, carved wood detailing, a glass-enclosed winter garden, an independent studio, a cellar, and nearby parking available to rent.

Set on one of Avignon’s oldest streets, a short walk from the Palais des Papes, this 300 m² / 3,229 sq ft apartment sits within the historic walled centre of one of Provence’s most significant cities. The property is listed with Emile Garcin Propriétés for €995,000.

Avignon is best known as the 14th-century seat of the Catholic papacy, when the city became one of the most important religious and political centres in Europe. The Palais des Papes, now one of the largest surviving Gothic palace complexes on the continent, remains the defining monument of that period.

The listing is positioned in Avignon Intra Muros, the city’s historic centre inside the old ramparts, where many of the streets around the Palais des Papes still follow the medieval urban plan with narrow cobblestone lanes, stone façades, and centuries-old buildings.

Listed as a triplex, the apartment is arranged across three internal levels, a European usage distinct from the North American term for a three-unit building. Located near Place de l’Amirande, the triplex apartment extends across three levels around an interior patio, giving it the scale and rhythm of a private townhouse within the old city walls. Period details include exposed stonework, terracotta floors, stained-glass windows, fireplaces, carved wood detailing, and a 23 m² / 248 sq ft leafy patio.

The ground floor includes a workshop room with woodwork, French shutters, and a fireplace, as well as a bright music room that opens onto a glass-enclosed winter garden. From there, the layout leads to a leafy 23 m² / 248 sq ft interior patio, creating a rare sense of outdoor privacy within the old city. An independent studio backs onto the patio and could serve as guest accommodation, a teenager’s bedroom, or a private workspace.

On the first floor, the main living areas include a spacious reception room with a fireplace, a dining room, a fully equipped kitchen with a La Cornue cooker, and a utility room. A separate section of this level contains a TV and reading lounge with stained-glass windows, a tea room, a marble shower room, and several bedrooms. Terracotta flooring adds a distinctly Provençal note to the interiors.

The top floor is dedicated to the primary suite, which includes separate dressing rooms and a bathroom with both a bathtub and shower, lit by floral stained-glass windows.

Additional amenities include a large cellar and a nearby parking space available to rent.

Its position inside Avignon’s historic walls, close to the Palais des Papes, places it within one of Provence’s most architecturally and culturally important urban settings.
