Etablie sur l'ancien mur d'enceinte, la maison de plan barlong est construite en pierres plates et en cailloux roulés. Elle conserve quelques éléments intéressants : souches de cheminées, pignons, consoles d'anciens mâchicoulis couverts, fenêtres à meneaux, détails de moulurations des encadrements de fenêtres. La construction se prolonge par une galerie qui conduisait à l'ancien pigeonnier.

Established on the former enclosure wall, the house of oblong plan is built of flat stones and rolled pebbles. It preserves some interesting elements: chimney stacks, gables, corbels of covered former machicolations, windows with mullions, details of mouldings of window surrounds. The construction extends into a gallery which led to the former pigeon loft.
