Sometimes it takes a village. For Johnny Depp, make that an entire village.

The actor has put his “estate” in Plan de la Tour, France, on the market at close to $26 million.

About 17 miles from Saint Tropez, the 37-acre property includes a complete Provencal village of stone-built houses dating back more than 200 years.

Since buying the property in 2001, Depp has restored and decorated the homes one by one, spending more than $10 million on improvements.

He converted a church to a guesthouse and installed a wine-tasting cave that looks like a set from “The Pirates of the Caribbean” film series. The star has used the retreat as his family getaway
