At the time of the survey in October 1986, the northeast elevation was undergoing alterations, with one window in each storey and one in the attic gable. The entrance is located in the left return.

Inside, there is a large bread oven with a barrel-vault roof and a wrought iron door featuring the original latch, which dates from the 18th century. The rear extension also displays jowled posts and a clasped purlin roof.
