and friends' bedrooms at second floor. The main building is extended with two lateral parts, one “orangerie”
used as dining room during summer, the other as a greenhouse where a swimming pool takes place.
The main acces to the mansion passes by a courtyard located at the end of principal axis of the garden.
This courtyard is surrounded by service and security buildings, like an «antichamber» before descovering
