Michel Veyrier, the cult of a quality lifestyle
About to celebrate the 30th anniversary of his network, the founder of the Demeures du Grand Sud and Vinea Transaction agencies looks back over a colourful career in Provence.
Born in Saint-Didier, a charming Provençal commune in the Vaucluse between the Comtat Venaissin and the Luberon, Michel Veyrier describes this place blessed by the gods, that he has explored so many times by bike since his childhood. Authentic villages basking in sunlight, stones given a sheen by passing time, charming buildings, silent testimonials to the Romanesque art and, more generally, the history of mankind. “Here, properties are experienced, felt deep inside, before becoming the subject of theoretical debate,” says this professional with 30 years of experience to his credit. Thanks to his training in agronomy and experiences in wine trading, he became sensitive to the nature of the earth and soon took an interest in large agricultural properties before broadening his expertise to cover residences of character. This expert on fine estates and vineyards in the South now directs three agencies in Montpellier, Lorgues and Châteauneuf-du-Pape while also encompassing the Languedoc, Var, Drôme Provençale, the Luberon and Comtat Venaissin. A team of ten professionals run these branches on an everyday basis. The approach here is real estate with an atypical focus on the equilibrium between urbanization and rurality, the environment and ecology. In this region, two concerns have long been at stake : preservation of water resources and respect for magnificent landscapes.
