Rarely has a property combined architectural elegance, cultural richness, and landscape beauty with such harmony.
Built between the 17th and 20th centuries, this exceptional estate of over 14 hectares forms a true timeless private hamlet. Former residence of a famous Parisian art dealer, this inspiring place hosted some of the greatest artistic figures of the 20th century, including Francis Bacon, Alberto Giacometti, and Sam Szafran. Prestigious concerts were also held here, featuring internationally renowned musicians such as Sviatoslav Richter and Jean Guillou.

One of the estate’s highlights is undoubtedly a remarkable barn of nearly 900 m², designed for concerts and large gatherings. This spectacular space notably contains an 18th-century organ, a rare testament to the estate’s musical heritage.

An independent caretaker’s house of 140 m², including three bedrooms and a large 140 m² terrace, completes the property, along with an additional hectare of land.
