A grand house with a garden court, outbuilding and floor area of around 340m², nestled in Meung-sur-Loire, a quaint town by the River Loire, between Orléans and Blois. This grand house is crowned with a slate roof. The fine edifice was built at the end of the 18th century. Its interior was developed at the start of the 19th century. It has a ground floor and a first floor, each offering a floor area of around 120m², and a loft that could be converted. Its elevations display the characteristic symmetry of classical architecture. Its facade has five bays of large windows with a central axis formed by the entrance door and the first floor’s central window. The windows have large panes and are fitted with louvred shutters on the first floor and partly louvred shutters on the ground floor. The quoins and door and window surrounds are made of exposed local dressed stone. Wrought-iron balustrades bring out the rendered elevations, which mostly face west and south. A garden court links the grand house to an outbuilding with two levels. This annexe offers a total floor area of around 100m². It could be converted. The whole property is walled. Only a large gate with stone pillars forms an opening in its enclosing walls. The plot covers around 480m².
