This castle, representative of medieval architecture, was rebuilt after 1812 on the site of a 15th-century stronghold house, of which it has retained some vestiges. With successive owners, lords and notables, several centuries have been recorded, with a dovecote dating from the 17th and 18th centuries and outbuildings from the 19th century. The property comprises a château with over 600m2 of living space, yet on a human scale, several outbuildings providing accommodation or gites (with a total of 14 bedrooms), a chapel, equestrian facilities (around a dozen boxes, over 10 paddocks, some with huts and drinking troughs, tack room, showers, walker, hayloft, shed...).

A neo-Gothic church converted into a comfortable home in a commanding position, 40 minutes east of Clermont-Ferrand. The 19th-century church is crowned with a slate roof. The edifice was built with local stone: arkose for the walls and Volvic volcanic stone for the window and door surrounds. The form of the church follows a basic basilican plan: it has a narthex, three bays without side aisles, a transept and a square chancel at the end. The church’s square bell tower, the bells of which have been removed, rises up above the bucolic backdrop and offers a panoramic view of the spectacular surroundings. The building lies in a calm spot by a hamlet. An 800m² lawn edges it. The place is scarcely overlooked. With its slender buttresses, its tall windows and the four levels of its bell tower, the edifice combines elegance with simplicity. Its architecture pleasantly blends pale arkose with dark volcanic stone.
