A 19th-century Protestant church to be restored in 5,500m² of wooded grounds, 40 minutes from Angoulême in France's Charente department. The edifice is rectangular. It was built of dressed white limestone in the 19th century and is capped with a slate gable roof. The axis of its rectangular form runs from north-east to south-west. A terrace extends at the foot of the church's tall facade. A bell tower with a pyramidal roof crowns this facade. The facade reaches up to the sky and is punctuated with windows from one level to the next. Its entrance doorway is flanked with two pilasters and capped with a fanlight beneath a pointed arch. Above this doorway, a large bull's-eye window fills the first floor with natural light. And above this bull's-eye window there is a sculpture of a Bible, opened at pages in Hebrew. Further up, the bell tower rise above the roofs. There is a pointed-arch opening on each face of the tower. On both sides of the main entrance, beyond each straight buttress stretching up to the base of the bell tower, there is a similar pointed-arch window. Along the church's side walls, there are two bays of arched windows and doorways spanning two levels. A semi-circular section completes the edifice at the back. An overgrown driveway needs to be cleared to open the way to the property. The surrounding woods are thick and have become wild.
