A group of Renaissance-era buildings, renovated into guest accommodations, with a swimming pool and one-hectare grounds bordered by a river, 1.5 hours from Paris. It is impossible to pass through the gate’s two brick pillars without noticing their sculpted lace-like stone pinnacles, vestiges of the property’s past splendour. Overlooking the countryside, an impressive circular tower, originally from the late 15th century and rebuilt in the 19th century in brick, is topped with stone machicolations and a slate pepperpot roof, while two additional towers can also be found on the property: a hexagonal one and a smaller circular one.
As for the former staff quarters, now converted into guest rooms and caretaker’s accommodations, they are accessible via the grounds’ many pathways and were once connected to the chateau itself, which no longer exists today, whereas the property’s chapel has been transformed into the main dwelling. Featuring homogenous architecture, typical of the late Gothic period and a precursor to the Renaissance, its brick walls are cadenced by stone window/door surrounds topped with ogee arches, small-paned doors and windows, some of which are mullioned, as well as quoins, which highlight the buildings’ edges and slate rooftops. Last, but not least, a covered swimming pool is located in front of the main dwelling and extends the view towards the grounds, enclosed by walls, fencing and a river on one side.
