Accessed via a picturesque plane tree-lined driveway, the château is approached through a double châtelet, leading to a courtyard of honor adorned with a wide stone staircase.

The second floor of the renovated section includes a library entrance, two en-suite bedrooms, and a dressing room. A grand gallery leads to a spacious living room with a fireplace, situated in the south-facing dungeon that overlooks the surrounding countryside, as well as two additional en-suite bedrooms.
