Manoir stands in Commeaux (Orne), in the Normandie region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: second quarter of the 16th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
Built in the second quarter of the 16th century by the banks of the Houay stream, this manor house in the Orne countryside stands out for its L-shaped plan and the two round towers marking its northern corners. A smaller stair turret occupies the inner angle of the building, a sign that the upper floor was never fully completed. The fireplaces in the main rooms and the vaulted ceilings of the turrets remain among the best-preserved features of this listed property.
