45 kilometres southeast from Paris, a 12th-century manor, entirely restored, with its moats, outbuildings and 4 7-hectare grounds. Behind the wrought-iron fence, the property is revealed in all its splendour. To the left, the former watchtower, once defensive in nature, seems to welcome visitors today. Across from it, the manor stands facing a vast lawn. Behind it, a paved patio looks out on the former moats, partially encircled by stone ramparts. To the northwest, an apartment located in a semi-detached barn completes the whole. Two driveways provide access to the grounds.
The group of buildings harmoniously blend together thanks to their pointed exposed stone façades, pierced with rectangular or arched windows and embellished with wooden window frames and doors. The window surrounds are in ashlar stone, which match the colour of the plaster. The flat-tile gabled roofs are perforated with pedimented hayloft dormer windows. Corner and façade wall ties are in white or grey ashlar stone.
The first vestiges of the manor date back to the 12th century. Subsequently and through the unification of several fiefdoms and domains in 1787, the construction started to resemble “a fortified house consisting of a group of dwellings and large moats of water”. The manor still contains many elements that bear witness to its long history.
