the village and Surrounds
Saint Siffret
restaurant & bar | shops | epicerie | school | festivals | wineries | transport | walking tracks | cycling paradise
The charming village of St Siffret is located only 3 kms from the heart of Uzes. The home itself sits in the centre of the old village in a very unique location with no adjoining buildings on any of its boundaries. The home stands proudly at the end of a no through road limiting any passing traffic and ensuring a very calm environment. In the village you will find a bar/restaurant, ecole maternal, epicerie, a doctor and other medical professionals. The village also comes alive with numerous festivals and events throughout the year. It is home to many nationalities and its 1200 inhabitants are a lovely blend of those who live here all year round or call it their second home. You will also find a superb high end jeweler and organic hairdresser who manufactures their own products also in the village. A major shopping precinct and numerous weekly markets are located in the surrounding villages. Saint Siffret offers the best of both worlds, close to all amenities needed for families and couples, locals and foreigners but its location amongst the vines and the adjacent forest ensures a calmness denied most of the neighbouring villages.

We have had some great times here with family and friends, its such a perfect home. Plenty of cozy places to curl up with a book but also a fun space. The view never get old. I think we have taken over 1000 sunset photos
THE RENOVATION PROCESS
Photos below show the renovation project prior and during. A local designer and boutique builder were engaged to create a custom, modern home while ensuring the charm and original features were not only retained but brought front and centre.
We would love to stay, but family and work mean we have to move from the region. We know we will never find another home quite like it. The open plan, the layout and thought out renovation. It's so calm here, day and night, and we will miss the location and those sublime views. We are really sad to leave and know the next owners will love it as much as we do
