From the village’s main road, a tall wrought-iron gate and two wooden pedestrian gates lead to a driveway that stretches over roughly 50 metres. This drive is lined with linden trees. It leads up to the chateau’s main entrance. The chateau has a rectangular main section that was built at the end of the 18th century. It has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. An extension on the east side of this original main section was built in the 19th century. It has a ground floor and a first floor. A former dovecote, two garages and a swimming pool complete the estate. The prior of the village’s former abbey, founded in the 6th century, lived in this chateau. Behind the edifice, there is a tree-dotted garden that covers almost two hectares and is enclosed with a stone wall.

The chateau

The chateau is made of ashlar. It offers a total floor area of 412m² and has 11 main rooms, including seven bedrooms. The north elevation, which you can see from the drive, has five bays. The windows on the ground floor and first floor have small panes. The ground-floor windows have bars too. The south elevation, which faces the grounds, also has five bays. It has small-paned windows on the ground floor and large-paned windows on the first floor. The edifice is crowned with a hipped roof of interlocking tiles with four hipped dormers and two bull’s-eye windows, all looking out at the grounds, except for one of them. Four skylights dot the roof’s east and west slopes. The main entrance door is made of wood. Above it, there is a glazed fanlight and a wall stone sculpted with foliage motifs. The extension, which was built in the 19th century, has a ground floor and a first floor. Its ground-floor windows are similar to those in the original main section. On the extension’s first floor, the windows are smaller, except for an arched window that looks out at the eastern part of the grounds.

The ground floor
At the top of a front flight of stone steps, the chateau’s main entrance door leads into a hallway with a checked floor pattern of pink and beige stone. Wooden panelling painted white adorns the walls, adding an extra touch of elegance. A double door leads into the first of four reception rooms that connect to each other and all face south, looking out at the grounds. This room leads out onto the gravelled terrace with a stone balustrade and stone steps. To the right of this room, there is a second reception room. It is filled with natural light from two large windows. It has a fireplace and is used as an office and as a music room. To the left, there is a third reception room. It is also bathed in natural light from two large windows. This room is adorned with wooden panelling, wooden bas-relief sculptures and a fireplace. It is used as a dining room. Beyond this dining room, there is the fourth and last reception room. It lies in the 19th-century extension and is filled with natural light from a south-facing window and from east-facing French windows that lead out to the terrace’s eastern section. On either side of the lounge’s fireplace, there are two curved, symmetrical wooden doors. Above each one, there are two wall paintings. Wood strip flooring extends across the four reception rooms. From the entrance hall, a door on the left leads to a kitchen with a floor of cement tiles, an imposing stone fireplace and a wood-burning stove. Two windows with bars face north, looking out at the driveway. To the right of the fireplace, a door leads straight to the dining room. Beside the kitchen there is a scullery. This scullery leads to the lounge via the two curved doors and out to the grounds via a double wooden door. On the other side of the hallway, there is a cloakroom, a lavatory and a pantry with a washbasin. They lie beside a door that leads to the basement.

The first floor
An elegant stone staircase with a wrought-iron balustrade leads up to the first floor. A landing with wood strip flooring connects to an anteroom with French windows that lead out onto a balcony facing the grounds. From this room, you reach a first bedroom with wood strip flooring, flowery wallpaper and a fireplace. A door hidden in the decor leads to a private en-suite bathroom. Another hidden door leads straight to the landing. On the other side of the anteroom, there is a second bedroom with a fireplace and wood strip flooring. A door leads to a private en-suite bathroom in the extension. It has a bathtub and offers a view of the grounds. From the landing, a door leads to a corridor that takes you to the second bedroom, as well as a third bedroom, which faces east in the extension. This third bedroom also has a private en-suite bathroom. The last door on the landing connects to a north-facing room that is currently used as a utility room and storeroom.

The second floor
A wooden staircase leads up to a landing with wood strip flooring that takes you to two connecting bedrooms. There is a third and fourth bedroom up here too. They also connect to each other. There are exposed beams in each of the four bedrooms. A bathroom and a loft space complete this top floor. At the back of the bathroom, a door leads up to the attic.
