On one side, the Commander's Tower, on 5 levels, made up of three bedrooms, a living room with dining room, a kitchen, two bathrooms and convertible attics. Its elements of character such as an imposing Louis XIV fireplace, Guards room or an ancient prison, make this place a very original independent housing, ideally used for family, friends,or for seasonal reception (independent access to the exterior and the swimming pool). The main house, on the other side, which, although recent, fits perfectly into the existing medieval construction and has country and even monastic attributes such as stained-glass windows, bread oven, old troughs, wine press and covered patio looking like a small cloister. An office with an authentic cupboard-drawer opens onto a large reception room with a sizeable fireplace, a cathedral dining room and a “rustic-chic” kitchen with stone worktop and copper sink. The floor of these 3 living rooms is covered in pink marble. The large living room is bright with its numerous openings onto the patio, then the terrace. Upstairs, an old attic converted into three bedrooms with a bathroom. In the basement, a workshop with laundry room and bathroom, which can be converted into a completely independent studio, 50m², overlooking the garden.
