The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Exemple unique de maison de la fin du 15e siècle, plus proche des maisons urbaines - par sa volumètrie et ses deux encorbellements - que des maisons rurales. Seul le premier niveau est en maçonnerie ; le pan-de-bois, malheureusement masqué par un crépi moderne, est bien visisble de l'intérieur. La maison conserve sa porte d'origine, à tympan décoré d'un écu, ainsi que l'escalier d'accès aux combles, en vis et construit en bois. Des cheminées de la fin du 17e siècle ou du début du 18e siècle témoignent d'un remaniement de l'aménagement intérieur à cette époque.

Unique example of a house from the late 15th century, closer to urban houses - by its volumetry and its two corbels - than to rural houses. Only the first level is in masonry; the timber framing, unfortunately hidden by modern render, is clearly visible from the interior. The house retains its original door, with a tympanum decorated with a shield, as well as the staircase leading to the roof space, in a spiral and constructed in wood. Fireplaces from the late 17th century or early 18th century testify to a rearrangement of the interior layout in this period.
