The property lies at the edge of the village. It is hidden behind a tall stone wall and includes two burrstone houses. One of them, a caretaker’s house, stands by the entrance to the property near the road. The other one, the main house, stands lower down and you reach it via a sloping driveway that runs around the dwelling. Several vehicles can be parked on this drive. A vast garden with a tennis court extends between the main edifice and the bank of the River Seine. The main house has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor. A basement extends beneath the whole building, which has been structured into three self-contained dwellings: one on the ground floor, one of the first floor and one on the second floor. The edifice’s burrstone elevations are punctuated with tall windows with wrought-iron guardrails. A roof of flat tiles crowns the building. There are two majestic entrance doors, which are glazed and stand beneath arched fanlights, in the facade and the rear elevation. The main door is set back within a covered entrance area decorated with a frieze of sculpted antique motifs. The other door, which is beneath a balcony, is hidden among a luxuriant Virginia creeper that grows vigorously up the garden-side elevation. Inside, there is a total liveable floor area of around 500m², spread over 17 rooms, including 10 bedrooms. This second floor has a terrace with a 70m² floor area. On each floor, old decorative features have been preserved: mouldings, wooden panelling, fireplaces, parquet and stairs have kept their historical charm. In the kitchen, there is beautiful Delftware. And in the bedrooms, there are fireplaces, doors and cupboards made of old woodwork. The caretaker’s house has a ground floor, a first floor and a converted loft, as well as a basement, which is a garden-level floor at the back. The garden covers around 3,500m².

The main house

The ground floor
The ground floor has a floor area of around 200m². It is made up of a reception space with a dual-aspect central hallway, a lounge, a dining room, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and a pantry. At the end of the hallway there is a terrace that is level with the ground floor and that looks out at the garden. The view stretches down to the River Seine. In the first half of the hallway, there is a staircase that spirals upwards in quarter turns with an intermediate landing. The stairwell is open up to the top floor: you can look up at a coffered ceiling. The second half of the hallway leads to a lounge on one side and to a dining room on the other. The ceiling is 3.7 metres above the floor. The two rooms have several French windows with arched fanlights. These French windows and fanlights bathe the interior in natural light and lead out to a terrace with a sweeping view of the vast garden and the River Seine. In the lounge, an imposing fireplace framed between windows stands in the middle of a round alcove with marquetry parquet. In the dining room, an imposing fireplace framed between windows stands against a straight wall.

The first floor
The first floor offers a 160m² floor area with four bedrooms. It has been turned into a self-contained apartment and was previously occupied by a member of the family. There are two entrances leading into it: one via the indoor staircase and another via an outdoor flight of steps. This apartment includes a lounge with a fireplace, an open-plan kitchen, four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a storeroom. This level has a ceiling height of 3.5 metres and wood-strip flooring.

The second floor
The second floor has also been turned into a self-contained apartment. Today, you can only reach it via the outdoor flight of steps because access via the indoor staircase has been closed off. This level has sloping attic ceilings and offers a floor area of around 110m². It includes a reception space and three bedrooms, two of which share a bathroom, and a third bedroom, which a second bathroom adjoins. The reception space and bedrooms lead out onto a vast terrace with a 70m² floor area. This terrace offers a clear view of the River Seine and the surrounding countryside.

The basement
The basement extends beneath the entire edifice and has a floor area of around 200m². It is divided into several rooms, including a boiler room with a recently installed condensing boiler, a wine cellar, a games and music room, and several storerooms.
