The estate extends over more than 4 hectares in a single lot, surrounded by fields and hedgerows. At the end of a local lane that also serves the hamlet, the 19th-century chateau comes into view amidst unspoilt countryside. The entrance to the edifice is preceded by a driveway bordered by horse chestnut trees which leads to a forecourt. Then two symmetrical wrought iron gates and a low wall topped with a Versailles-style grille demarcate the rectangular front courtyard, which is bordered on either side by the former outbuildings. The roughly 600 m² of stone buildings with tiled roofs include coach houses, a cattle shed, a wine storehouse and a wine press, testifying to the activities of the former castellany.
Dating back to 1870 and enlarged in 1890, the chateau boasts a distinctive eclecticism, having retained the best of the various architectural styles emblematic of the 19th century.
The residence is rectangular in plan with four bays; the entrance courtyard side faces south-west and the wooded parklands side north-east. The facades feature brick and tuffeau or Sireuil stone dressings and are topped by a slate roof. Metal ridges run along the top of the roof. The levels are separated by wide stringcourses and the windows are protected by stone balustrades.
To the rear, the chateau conceals a vast terrace, covered by a 40 m² bioclimatic pergola, next to a 10 x 4 m swimming pool. The grounds are enclosed by walls or railings. The parklands are dotted with tall trees,
