The manor is cited in a 1654 avowal. The buildings are arranged around a rectangular courtyard with access to the south-east and south-west. Main dwelling to the north, pavilion to the south with traces of a gateway, and outbuildings to the west. The pavilion is square in plan. A perpendicular body of building has been adjoined to it, projecting to the north and east. The external staircase is situated in the re-entrant angle of the two buildings. A single room occupies, at each level, each of the two buildings, with no communication between them. The echauguette is supported by a moulded corbel resting on an engaged column.
