Historique
Au rez-de-chaussée une porte cochère s'ouvre dans l'axe. L'arc supérieur, brisé, est garni d'une imposte en ferronnerie. Deux modillons formant consoles et un cartouche sculpté soutiennent un balcon galbé avec appui en ferronnerie. Cette porte était flanquée de part et d'autre de deux grandes ouvertures également en arc brisé avec imposte en ferronnerie. Dans la cour intérieure, un grand arc en anse de panier ouvre l'accès au grand escalier. L'étage y prend jour par dix fenêtres à balconnet en ferronnerie. A l'intérieur, l'étage noble a conservé la distribution initiale et la plupart des boiseries d'époque, ainsi que des cheminées du 18e siècle.

History
On the ground floor a carriage gate opens in the axis. The upper arch, pointed, is furnished with an imposte in ironwork. Two modillions forming consoles and a sculpted cartouche support a curved balcony with ironwork support. This gate was flanked on either side by two large openings also with pointed arch and imposte in ironwork. In the interior courtyard, a large basket-handle arch opens access to the grand staircase. The floor takes light from it through ten windows with ironwork balustrettes. Inside, the noble floor has preserved the original layout and most of the period wood panelling, as well as 18th-century fireplaces.
