[2] After his widowed mother purchased the Hôtel de Valbelle-Meyrargues on the Cours Mirabeau in 1695, he purchased the adjacent Hôtel de Séguiran and converted both hôtels particuliers into the Hôtel d'Arbaud-Jouques designed by the architect Jean-Baptiste Franque (1683-1758).

Moreover, his portrait was painted by Michel-François Dandré-Bardon (1700–1785).
