A historic manor house dating from the 15th to the 19th century, meticulously restored Perched atop a hill, surrounded by its ponds, woods and pastures, this manor house overlooks an unspoilt landscape, bathed in silence. The last property at the end of a hamlet, the estate is entirely walled, guaranteeing absolute privacy and a rare sense of controlled seclusion. Origins and history Built between the 15th and 19th centuries, the manor bears witness to several centuries of architecture and successive developments. Each era has left its mark, resulting in a residence of authentic character, typical of the large rural estates of Berry and Brenne, regions rich in ancient manorial heritage. Formerly the residence of a local dignitary or landowner, the manor is part of local history as a place of living, working and entertaining, organised around its outbuildings, farm buildings and land. A restoration that respects the heritage From 2018 onwards, the current owners undertook a complete restoration, carried out with exceptional attention to detail and a deep respect for the existing structure. The building’s layout, original materials and character have been carefully preserved, whilst incorporating modern technical systems that meet today’s standards of comfort and performance. Cut stone, exposed beams, a tower, external staircases, dormer windows and antique terracotta tiles now complement travertine floors, pellet-fired central heating, reversible air conditioning, enhanced thermal and sound insulation, fibre-optic broadband and modern bathrooms.
