Carried out by the architect Cotton, the construction was completed in 1903.Today, this remarkable home is private. Its owner, Marie Jaubert agreed to host a team from France 3 Poitou Charentes in summer 2018 to let people know a little more about this architectural treasure which has been listed as a Historic Monument since 2007.The building is made up of two contiguous rectangular blocks, against which two towers lean: a square tower facing the sea serving as a belvedere and housing the entrance porch; a round corbelled tower on the back serving as a stairwell.The France 3 Poitou Charentes report on the villa “La Jetée” will tell you a lot more about this jewel and its setting
