Accessible from the main road, a path crosses the meadows dotted with a few horse stalls and leads to the hamlet, which is bordered to the north by the millstream. The house, to the north, overlooks a first island linked by a footbridge to a second bordering the millstream, followed by the weir separating it from the third island with its meadow, linked by a footbridge over 30 metres long. The three dwellings form an open U-shape to the east, organised around a courtyard with a fountain in the centre. Below on the right, behind an olive tree topiary, there is a rectangular swimming pool measuring 5 m x 15 m, with railing around it and a summer kitchen with a roof over it. The meadows bordered by the river to the north, the mill run and the three islands are mainly lined with large trees such as poplars, willows and alders.

The main house to the north

The 19th century building, built of exposed stone with white limestone ashlar window and door surrounds, is topped by a gable roof with canal tiles. In the early 20th century, it housed a turbine factory that produced electricity for the region. It is arranged in an L-shape, facing the millstream on one level and facing the courtyard and its fountain on two levels. The large paddle wheel occupies the corner, with its generator providing some of the electricity needed for the property. The water also flows eastwards, running under two arches in the single-storey wing. A balcony frames the inside of the L, from the north end to the wheel. A covered terrace under a roof links the house to the swimming pool, which is framed by a white stone railing.

The ground floor
The entrance hall opens onto a large open-plan space, with a dining room to the left, a lounge with a quarter-turn wooden staircase to the right and a kitchen with exposed beams in front, after two steps. After the steps, on the right, there is a bar area with an agate counter. From the dining room, a window looks out over the millstream, which is almost 100 m long. Between the two rooms and the kitchen there is a toilet with a sink and Spanish tiles on the floor. From the kitchen, on the left there is a room used as a storeroom, and another used as a laundry room on the millstream side. The kitchen, located above the millstream, has a central island with storage units in a Porto blue that matches the worktop and the Lacanche stove set in the fireplace with stone jambs and a wooden cornice. The floors are terracotta tiles, except for the living room, which is stone. The ceilings in the dining room and living room are light, with white joists. From the living room, a door opens into a bedroom with blue walls. At the back, two doors lead to a marble bathroom on one side and a connecting storage area on the other. Another provides access to the covered terrace leading to the swimming pool.
The upstairs
A landing with oak parquet flooring leads to a bedroom, a study, a shower room, a bathroom and a storage area. The west-facing bedroom has large mirrored wardrobes. To the south, a room has been converted into storage space. In the south-east corner, a room that could be used as a bedroom has been converted into a study. In the north-east corner, a shower room has light-coloured features contrasting with darker tiles.

The old house to the west

Built on two floors, it is the oldest house in the hamlet, as evidenced by the presence of 15th century features such as beams, fireplace jambs and window seats. Built of exposed stone with white ashlar window surrounds, it has a canal tile roof.

The ground floor
The entrance faces the straight stone staircase leading to the bedrooms. The floor is made of stone and the walls are in exposed stone. The kitchen is on the right with a fireplace and a typical Charentais “potager”, where dishes were cooked over the embers from the fireplace. A stone sink is set into the archway of a wall. The ceiling is supported by a beam. A door opens onto a toilet under the staircase. To the left there is a lounge with a Charentaise fireplace and a ceiling with natural wood beams and joists.
The upstairs
The landing leads to four bedrooms with oak floors. The first bedroom is accessed directly and has a fireplace with 15th century jambs. It is complemented by a very light bathroom that contrasts with the darker tiled floor. A corridor with one wall in exposed stone and plaster and the other in white panelling, leads to the other three bedrooms on the courtyard side. The first combines two exposed stone walls, a white wall and a pastel purple wall that matches the ceiling beams. The second bedroom combines exposed stone and panelling, stone jambs and an old fireplace. It is adjoined by a shower room decorated in very light tones. The last bedroom, with its south-facing window, also combines exposed stone walls and light colours, in harmony with the shower room.

The house to the south

Built in the 19th century with two stories with exposed stone facades and Charente limestone ashlar window surrounds, it has a gable roof with canal tiles and is linked to the older house to the west by two garages with lower roofs. The ensemble forms an L shape.

The ground floor
It is made up of a vast open-plan space with lounges, a kitchen area, dining areas and a toilet.
The upstairs
It has three bedrooms and a shower room with a toilet. The decoration is in keeping with that of the other houses, combining modernity and authentic features with exposed stone walls.
