A small Chateau on a human scale - A small 17th century château on a human scale, rebuilt on medieval walls. It overlooks a charming, very picturesque Périgord village. It faces south and the gardens also face the sun. This small castle is probably one of the few where all the living space is at ground level. The layout of the various buildings is such that they form a beautiful courtyard bordered to the north by a rock wall. The builders of this exceptional property have used common sense. The courtyard is accessed via a porch surmounted by a dovecote. A 15th-century round tower separates the main house from the caretaker's quarters. The living area is 212 m2 for the main house and 68 m2 for the caretaker's accommodation. The large cellars and the barn total around 160 m2. Most of the 33680 m2 of adjoining land is wooded and requires no maintenance.

SUPERB CHATEAU IN ITS OWN BUT RESTORED INCLUDING LIVING ROOM WITH FIREPLACE A NAPOLEON III-INSPIRED MUSIC ROOM 7 BEDROOMS 3 BATHROOMS VAULTED CELLAR A HUGE OUTBUILDING ON LAND OF 21 HA In the Middle Ages, the chateau was just a simple massive tower , square, rising on three levels. During the Renaissance and more recently, many windows were pierced. This device allows at the time to monitor the passage of the Cole over nearly 20 kilometers. In the 17th century, the ironmaster wanted to make his residence more habitable and added an elongated wing to it, with a Mansard roof. In the 18th century, improvements were continued, as evidenced by the date of 1729 appearing in the center of a porch giving access to a vaulted cellar. The facade, facing south, is bordered by a terrace overlooking a pond. It is accessed by a double flight staircase.
