A 17th-century manor house, with farming and equestrian outbuildings, in 2 hectares of grounds, in the Forez Valley, near to the River Loire. The estate was built in the 17th century and includes a three-storey residence with a surface of around 540 m² in the centre of ornamental grounds filled with trees, including a remarkable oak dating from approximately 1640. There is also an orangery, set perpendicularly, that houses smaller vegetation more vulnerable to frost. The edifices are bordered by a branch of the Forez Canal, in which the water flows through the property, separating the built-up part from the surrounding farming meadows.
After the manor house and through a first arch, there is a courtyard surrounded by the estate’s outbuildings (a workshop, estate keeper’s house, stable worker’s garage, agricultural storage buildings with lofts and the owner’s carriage stables). These outbuildings have not been used for many years but provide spacious garage and storage space.
A second arch then leads to the farm itself as well as its livestock buildings and equipment storage facilities: agricultural storage buildings, barns, a workshop, box stalls, a cowshed and various storage space. It has belonged to the current owners since 1946. Following an agricultural past, it was then destined for breeding racehorses, as is traditional in a region where there are many racehorse stables.
