Between access D2007 north and south and access D2009; state forest and river nearby. Between the forest (ZNIEFF) and the bank of the wild Allier river (National Nature Reserve of Val d’Allier, Bird Reserve, ZNIEFF, Natura 2000, conservancy, biotope to be preserved), the "castle", the last property at the end of a place name, opens directly onto many walking paths. The panorama extends south-east as far as the eye can see. Site of the Allier Natural Spaces Conservatory. This old site, present on the Cassini map, was invested in the 19th century by a renowned horse breeder to implant his racehorses, competitors at the racetrack of the capital of the Duchy of Bourbon; the racetrack founded by Baron de Veauce, a friend of the Duke de Morny, who also raced his horses there. "Castle" typically of 19th-century Bourbon architecture, renovated with respect for period elements (2012 to 2017), turned into a family home (two levels of 200 m² on the ground): Built of rubble dressed with sandstone from Coulandon (brown and pink), the building, part on vaulted cellars, has on the garden level a succession of bright reception rooms (8 rooms of different sizes + 2 toilets-sinks and a shower) as well as at the upper level bedrooms (5) and sanitary facilities (bathroom and toilets); rooms wisely exposed to the south-east overlooking the walled park and the unobstructed view. Northwest corridors lead to these 13 rooms. Plans available upon request.
