This house is an example of civil architecture from the end of the Middle Ages. The house is flanked by a tower to which a portal was added in 1626. On the ground floor of the circular tower, two doors: one is chamfered, the other with a moulded frame of a cyma. Above the latter, the tower presents a slight corbelling. The upper part of the tower houses a dovecote. The south façade comprises, on its part adjoining the tower, a storey with timber framing in corbelling.
