An 18th century manor house in Champagne awaiting renovation, its outbuildings and 1 ha of romantic parklands with a breathtaking view over the countryside. All the buildings on the estate are arranged around the manor house. The outbuildings form an entrance courtyard closed off by a perimeter wall with a stone and wrought iron gate. A panoramic terrace surrounds the manor house. Two vast vaulted cellars of roughly 80 m² underpin the entire ground floor area of the house. The two-storey manor house has three rendered facades covered with Virginia creeper topped by a jerkinhead roof clad with flat tiles.
The eastern gate opens into an entrance courtyard. The manor's outbuildings are in a good state of repair and include barns, a bakehouse, garages and workshops, as well as the gardener's cottage.
To the south, the property overlooks the old village cemetery where a remarkable medieval church once stood. Torn down in the 19th century, the site now provides a viewpoint overlooking the bucolic Vingeanne valley and the artificial Villegusien lake, which covers an area of around 200 hectares and features a leisure centre. Its 7.4 km of banks and two tributaries are a haven for a multitude of birds. To the west of the manor house, there is a terraced garden with parkland and an orchard below.
