EXCLUSIVITY — Built in the second half of the 16th century, this seigneurial residence is one of the most beautiful examples of the architecture of ancient Bas-Poitou. Little modified throughout its history, spared by the Wars of Religion and then by the Wars of Vendée, it has preserved a remarkable architectural and landscape unity.

Organized around a vast courtyard bordered by outbuildings, the estate includes an elegant Renaissance house remodeled in the 17th century, a monumental gateway, ancient defensive towers, and a set of outbuildings recalling the significant agricultural activity that once animated the property. This evolution, from a stronghold to a country house, remains perfectly legible.

Inside, the reception rooms have preserved their original volumes. Monumental fireplaces, woodwork from the 17th and 18th centuries, French ceilings, Renaissance staircase, and numerous ancient elements testify to the quality of this preserved residence.

The gardens constitute one of the great attractions of the property. Inspired by the principles developed by Charles Estienne in L'Agriculture et la Maison rustique, they are organized in terraces according to a composition inherited from the Renaissance. Decorative garden, vegetable garden, nymphaeum, old pond, orchard, herb garden, woods, beech hedge, and orangery compose a remarkable landscape path where each space has its function and identity.

Having disappeared during the 20th century, these gardens have undergone exemplary restoration since the 1990s. Conducted with profound respect for the spirit of the place, it has allowed for the recovery of historical layouts, restoration of perspectives, and return of the estate to its full coherence. Today, the architecture and landscape dialogue with rare harmony.

More than just a historic residence, this property embodies the art of living of the grand country houses of the Renaissance, where architecture, gardens, and landscape form an authentic and coherent whole.
