Steeped in history and officially listed as a Historic Monument, this extraordinary residence offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of France’s architectural legacy. Dating back to the 12th century, the property seamlessly blends medieval character, Renaissance refinement, and timeless elegance.

Renaissance enhancements — including mullioned windows, interior shutters, and an ornate Italian-inspired entrance — enrich the façade and interior volumes, creating a home that is both historically significant and visually stunning. The private courtyard garden offers tranquility and access to outbuildings, forming an intimate sanctuary within a vibrant, year-round village setting. Roof inspected and refurbished in 2025. Shops, medical facilities, and the weekly market are all just steps away. A rare and irreplaceable French legacy property — ideal as a private residence, heritage retreat, or generational investment.
