A 17th century chateau and its outbuildings, in 6 ha of parklands and gardens, facing Sisteron citadel. This property is on land that borders the Durance Valley, to the north of the town of Sisteron and to the north-east of Buëch bridge. Once a hunting lodge belonging to the Captain of the Cazette, it was then remodelled and given its current appearance. This 17th century building stands at the end of a driveway, lined with plane trees. It comprises a central, rectangular building which spans three levels and is extended by two wings set at right angles. The main facade is bordered with a terrace, the view from which was outlined in William-Turner’s travel sketchbooks in 1830. The painting resulting from this draft is now displayed in the Tate Gallery: Baume Rock with, on its hillside, the outskirts of the town, the confluence of the rivers Durance and Buëch and the citadel standing on a rocky spur. A flight of stone steps goes from the terrace to an Italian-style garden which runs alongside the bank. It gives access to the old stables, to a succession of cellars and to a greenhouse. Parklands, planted with trees hundreds of years old, surround the estate, ensuring its privacy. Near to the chateau, a dovecote stands next to a listed, ornamental pool. An old goat shed adjoins the stables and a farm shed, a barn borders the river bank. A lake is lost from sight in the estate’s woods. Six springs are scattered throughout the property.
