Large, rolling plains, surrounded by wooded hillsides are criss-crossed by meadows grazed by Nivernais Charolais cattle, easily recognisable with their light red and white coats. They contribute to the remarkable views near the property, which is reached by a small road bordered by a forest. A round track gives you a view of the entire estate and means you can park close to the manor house. The house stands imposingly at the centre of the estate, facing a large lawn and an oak forest dotted with tree houses that blend into the landscape. Remodelled by Jean-Louis-César Deschamps de Bisseret, a count and dragoon officer under Napoleon I who appreciated symmetry, it has many architectural features that suggest the manor was built in the 17th century, although the date 1808 is inscribed on the facade. The manor house does not appear to have undergone any significant changes since then. Three storeys high, it has two main facades that differ slightly from one another: topped with a flat-tiled gable roof with dormer windows, the manor house has straight, regular windows arranged in rows of three to the north and five to the south. They are enhanced by ashlar quoins and window surrounds. On either side of the main building, two lower extensions feature wooden-framed doors with window panes and flat Burgundy tile roofs. A second entrance at the rear of the house is framed by two old stone pillars on either side of a metal gate. A pond as nearby, almost hidden from view.
