The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
L'édifice présente un corps de logis accompagné d'une tour hexagonale. Un bandeau de pierre court le long des murs, séparant le rez-de-chaussée du premier étage, encadrant de larges fenêtres à meneaux. Au premier étage, deux grandes chambres possèdent des cheminées monumentales. De chaque côté montent des pilastres et chapiteaux ornés d'une guirlande. De l'extérieur, le manoir semble inachevé, comme le laisse penser l'amorce d'un mur en attente.

History
The edifice presents a main body of dwelling accompanied by a hexagonal tower. A stone band runs along the walls, separating the ground floor from the first floor, framing large windows with mullions. On the first floor, two large rooms possess monumental fireplaces. On each side rise pilasters and capitals ornate with a garland. From outside, the manor appears incomplete, as is suggested by the beginning of a wall left in suspension.
