History
The house was built in 1925 by architects Georges Vachon and Adrien Grave, commissioned by Suzanne De La Noue. Entrepreneur Lucien Rosengart funded this grand coastal residence.

Inside, rooms are decorated in different styles including Chinese, Louis XVI, and Breton themes, showing what wealthy owners liked in the early 1900s. Walking through these spaces reveals how people of that time mixed influences from different places and periods.
