The Ministère de la Culture's notice

"Manoir élevé en 1660, construit sur plan rectangulaire avec escalier à cage carrée placée en demi hors-oeuvre en façade arrière. La cheminée d'une des chambres de l'étage conserve un décor peint sur son manteau, représentant, dans un médaillon, la " Fuite en Egypte ", cantonnée par deux anges. Les jambages et les piédroits reproduisent une chute végétale en grisaille sur fond rouge. Cette cheminée devait être l'élément principal d'un décor mural disparu."

Manor raised in 1660, constructed on a rectangular plan with a staircase in a square cage placed half-projecting on the rear façade. The fireplace in one of the rooms on the upper storey retains painted decoration on its mantelpiece, representing, in a medallion, the Flight into Egypt, flanked by two angels. The jambs and reveals reproduce a vegetal garland in grisaille on a red ground. This fireplace must have been the principal element of a now-lost mural decoration.
