In Indre, against the ruins of a listed Renaissance castle, there is a comfortable house and a reception hall. At the back of a vast honor courtyard, beyond deep dried moats, the imposing facade of the ruined castle unfolds. The whole is a remarkable witness to the architecture of the early French Renaissance. A guest room has been created in the remaining tower. On one side of the courtyard, former outbuildings have now been converted into a comfortable long house of nearly 220 m², facing full south. Finally, at the entrance of the property, a carefully restored barn has been transformed into a large reception hall rented for weddings. The property thus consists of three built ensembles around a landscaped area, complementing each other.This description has been automatically translated from French.

A manor with outbuildings and a 15th-century chapel, listed as a Historical Monument, with 10 hectares of land, between the Touraine and Berry regions. A wide gravel drive leads to the property’s entrance: an arched carriage door with a wooden gate flanked by the chapel’s gable end on one side and a defensive tower on the other. In dressed and exposed tuffeau stone, it is topped with a gabled flat-tile roof and opens onto a vast gravel courtyard and lawns decorated with flowerbeds, around which the different dwellings are located. An initial L-shaped building is flanked by the defensive tower and includes a reception space, a holiday cottage and bedrooms. Its gabled roofs are covered in flat tiles and punctuated by hayloft dormer windows with triangular pediments. A second building, with a gabled flat-tile roof, two gabled dormer windows and two hayloft dormer windows – all four with triangular pediments – abuts the chapel and is extended by the manor. The third building, a square-shaped former dovecote, has been converted into a holiday cottage, built over two levels under an attic space, with a hipped slate roof. Following on from there is an individual cottage, with a three-sided roof covered in flat tiles and adorned with a hayloft dormer window with a triangular pediment. Its stone masonry façades are cadenced by different size windows, which are then surrounded by dressed tuffeau stone. In addition, the property also contains two outbuildings: one is located along the edge of the grounds, while the other is surrounded by woodland. Landscaped grounds spread out all around the buildings, with a small pond behind the manor and an aboveground swimming pool on pylons facing the fields and woods.
