The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Maison dont l'état actuel résulte de travaux ayant eu lieu au cours de la seconde moitié du 15e siècle. La distribution est entièrement recomposée avec la création d'un escalier en vis desservant la demeure depuis le rez-de-chaussée jusqu'au toit. Ce réaménagement s'accompagne d'un décor qui se concentre surtout sur les modératures des baies, portes de l'escalier, portes intérieures du vestibule et fenêtres. La grande salle était couverte d'un plafond à caisson ayant disparu.

History
House whose present state resulted from works carried out in the second half of the 15th century. The distribution was entirely recomposed with the creation of a spiral staircase serving the dwelling from the ground floor to the roof. This rearrangement was accompanied by decoration which concentrates mainly on the mouldings of the openings, doors of the staircase, interior doors of the vestibule and windows. The great hall was covered with a coffered ceiling which has since disappeared.
