This 15th century building, situated on one of the highest points in the Aigre region, offers a glimpse into the history of the Charentais seigneury.
In the past, the logis, built on a barrel-vaulted cellar, was surrounded by a dry moat and the large gateway opened onto a drawbridge.
The estate belonged to a succession of noble families until 1830, when it was transformed into a farm.
Many of the original 15th and 16th century features have been preserved.
The main building is a massive two-storey quadrilateral structure, one of which has an overhang, pierced by small bull's-eyes, with 400m2 of living space plus a 130m2 attic.
Part of the building (left wing) has been renovated by its current owners, offering an open-plan kitchen, utility room, study, lounge, dining room, shower room, 3 bedrooms and 2 WCs.
The rest of the dwelling is in need of renovation, around the many original features that are still present (fireplaces, vegetable gardens, floors, beams....).
The outbuildings comprise a large 515m2 metal-framed barn, an adjoining 66m2 barn (ideal for creating a gite with independent access), a 80m2 wine storehouse and a 140m2 hangar, including the technical part of the 11x5m in-ground swimming pool (liner to be provided).
