The property is nestled a few hundred metres from the local village in a bucolic backdrop. A solid grey gate of wrought iron leads into the grounds. It is framed between two granite pillars, one of which has an outdoor lamp fixed to it. On either side, a low wall and tall hedges give the property absolute privacy. The manor and its outhouses form a U shape. On the grounds, which cover almost one hectare, several spaces can be distinguished: there is an ornamental, tree-dotted garden embellished with flowers on the west side, a south-facing courtyard, and a car park on the east side. An annexe houses a covered swimming pool that looks out at the ornamental garden. And an events venue with a wooden floor adjoins an outhouse to form a large reception space. You enter the manor from a short driveway that leads from the wrought-iron gate. The edifice dates back to the 15th century, as a door surround upstairs and a spiral staircase indicate. The building has been redesigned several times over its long history. The year ‘1701’ is inscribed in the entrance door’s lintel. The dwelling is long and rectangular in shape. It has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. A gable slate roof crowns the house. The facade is made of pink rubble granite. Ashlar forms the window and door surrounds. There are many small-paned windows. The entrance door stands in a recess, beneath a rectangular window. A dormer with a triangular pediment gives character to the edifice’s west end. There is a secondary door beside a schist sundial that dates back to 1740. A cavity in the facade once formed an alcove for a dog. Opposite, there is a dome-covered well crowned with a granite cross. Pale gravel covers the courtyard. Wisteria grows up the facade.

The manor

The ground floor
The main entrance door leads into a hallway with contrasting white, gold, red and black tones. This hall has a high ceiling. On one side, there is a kitchen with an adjoining dining room. On the other side, there is a lounge. Exposed beams run across the ceilings. They are painted in accordance with the rooms’ ambiences. White dominates in the kitchen and reception room. Green dominates in the lounge, where there is a monumental granite fireplace. The floors are tiled. Exposed stonework forms most of the walls. The windows are single-glazed and fitted with traditional indoor wooden shutters. A two-floor apartment has been created on this level. The house’s secondary entrance leads into this apartment. The apartment could be a self-contained dwelling. It has a lounge with an open-plan kitchen, a lavatory and a shower room on the ground floor. Exposed stonework with lime pointing forms the walls. Natural light floods in through the dormer window.

The first floor
You reach the first floor via a staircase in the main entrance hall. Beyond a landing, there is a spacious Renaissance-style bedroom. Materials and colours blend together harmoniously and contrast with high-quality wooden flooring. Old features, including exposed beams, doors and indoor shutters, are showcased. A shower room with a lavatory adjoins the bedroom. A storage space is hidden behind a door near a window. On the other side of the central staircase, a few steps take you to a long corridor that connects to the main suite and to a bedroom with a shower room and lavatory, as well as a spacious hallway where a flight of stairs leads up to the top floor in the roof space. The main suite is made up of a bedroom with a bathroom, a separate lavatory, and a room that could serve as an office or a children’s bedroom. The decoration is elegant and the space is bathed in natural light from many windows. Oak-coloured flooring brings out this brightness even more. The rooms are spacious. In the self-contained section where the two-floor apartment lies, stairs leading up from the hallway take you to a mezzanine, which serves as a lounge. The latter looks down at the living room below. This elegant space has kept its walls of exposed stone and thick beams. All the windows in this part of the manor are double-glazed. The renovation dates back to 2015.

The second floor
At both ends, the top floor has spacious bedrooms, each with a shower room and lavatory. These two bedrooms are extensive, bright and well designed. The floors are wooden and the walls have warm tones. Between the two bedrooms, there is a loft space that needs to be converted.
