Historique
Maison provinciale de la fin du 17e siècle, agrandie au 18e par un pavillon d'angle décoré d'un fronton. La porte d'entrée, située au centre du corps du logis du 17e siècle, donne à l'ensemble son caractère de noblesse rustique. Des mascarons décorés de figures ornent les fenêtres du pavillon d'angle. L'intérieur conserve encore quelques boiseries.

History
Provincial house of the end of the 17th century, enlarged in the 18th by a corner pavilion decorated with a pediment. The entrance door, situated at the centre of the 17th century main dwelling, gives to the whole its character of rustic nobility. Masks decorated with figures adorn the windows of the corner pavilion. The interior still preserves some wainscoting.
