In Auvergne, in one of the "most beautiful villages in France", a Renaissance-style residence with its tower and inner courtyard. The property, built in an L-shape, reveals itself at the end of a village street, beyond its walled courtyard. It stands three levels high under a hipped roof and serves as a testament to the traditional architecture of Usson, characterized by buildings constructed from prismatic blocks derived from the basalt columns overlooking the town. The frames of the openings are made from arkose, a light sandstone type, quarried locally, or crafted in bricks. The harmony of materials is accentuated by the vermilion red of the cornices resting on corbels. At the back of the property, a terrace garden unfolds.This description has been automatically translated from French.
