This dwelling was built around the middle of the 16th century (1553), in the form of a crenellated house with a leak. In 1562, nine machicolations were drilled above the entrance gate which once ended, at both ends, with two turrets, only one of which remains. The postern is framed by two pilasters and surmounted by a triangular pediment decorated with fire pots. With this house was built a terrace. The other farm buildings are of recent construction, as well as the chapel in front of the gate.
