Description

This prestigious maison de maître, dating from the 19th century, offers refined architecture, grand proportions and over 500 m² of restored living space, all nestled in the heart of the thriving market town of Lezay.

The property is featured on an early 20th-century postcard published by H. Canon, a local printer. The postcard confirms the enduring presence of key architectural elements — the stone façade, iron gates, and tree-lined perimeter — still intact today. The home’s Belle Époque elegance is preserved through features such as original stained glass (dated 1899–1900), encaustic floor tiles, marble fireplaces and a grand carved staircase. Carefully restored and updated, the property also includes a modern pool, energy-efficient systems and a private walled garden — offering historic prestige with contemporary livability.
