In the heart of the Romanesque Saintonge and surrounded by over 18 hectares of green park, a long path drives to this attractive family property with a front neo-Gothic facade, and many outbuildings all around. In the East, the park, with its 4 entrances and splendid trees, is bordered by a stream with a wash-house.
This outstanding chateau in a pure blazing style, close to Rochefort, was raised on four levels and benefits from an elegant design of great unity : mullion windows and many other rich decorative features.
The entrance, of nearly 12 metres long, distributes all the reception rooms on ground floor, and is remarkable with its marble floor, its stone walls half covered with carved wooden panels and its carved stone door frames.
