castle for sale Saint-Quay-Portrieux, France

Réf. 4830: Listed castle, set within a 568 acres estate in the Côtes-d'Armor. This remarkable château, a true gem of Breton heritage, is situated in the Côtes d’Armor department, in the hinterland of Saint-Brieuc, at the heart of a 568 acres natural estate, largely wooded, which constitutes a rare example of the large landed estates of the 19th century. Although situated in an isolated and unspoilt rural setting, it is nonetheless accessible, a short distance from a charming medium-sized town with all amenities. The nearest beaches are 30 minutes away, and Paris is a 2-hour 20-minute journey by TGV. Built on the site of a former manor house dating from the 15th century, which was extended and remodelled in the 19th century in the Neo-Gothic style, this exceptional château embodies a perfect blend of fascinating, cohesive, historic architecture and the demands of modern living. Restored at great expense with remarkable attention to detail, it offers high-quality amenities in an authentic setting. At the end of a long, 1.4-kilometre avenue winding through the woods and passing close to the pond, the château, with its L-shaped layout, reveals its full grandeur. It immediately commands attention at first glance. Its façade is punctuated by mullioned windows and tall dormer windows with pointed gables; its polygonal tower is flanked by a turret on a lamp base, and the truncated tower in the inner corner forms the entrance staircase, these two towers reinforcing its exceptional character. Behind its elegant facades of dressed granite stone lie vast, light-filled reception rooms offering beautiful views of the surroundings. These rooms are enhanced by carefully preserved period features: a moulded entrance door with pinnacles and fleurons, monumental fireplaces, wood panelling, a grand staircase with balusters, and a spiral staircase. With 1,250 sqm of living space, comprising approximately 420 sqm per floor, the château features a large central entrance hall with a grand staircase leading to two adjoining living rooms, a dining room, a fitted kitchen, a study, a billiard room, a gym and two toilets. The ceiling height is 4.8 m (except for the mezzanine rooms). Two further staircases (one a granite spiral staircase, the other a straight service staircase) lead to the two upper floors, which feature 12 spacious bedrooms designed to offer a high standard of comfort, each with en-suite bathrooms and/or shower rooms, as well as a cinema and games room. On the first floor, the ceiling height is 3.9 m and on the second floor 3.2 m. All these rooms are cleverly laid out, spacious, and offer beautiful views of the park and woodland. The basement extends beneath the entire château and contains currently unused rooms, the boiler room, and the former kitchen with its fireplace. The laundry room is on the mezzanine level. Outbuilding : Designed in the 19th century on the model of large agricultural estates (model farms), the property was self-sufficient. This vast complex, covering approximately 2,500 sqm, comprises: - A remarkable U-shaped stable building (440 sqm), constructed from pink granite from Perros-Guirec, with the central section of the U covered in the Baltard style – a covered area used for harnessing the horses, topped by a clock tower. This building includes the carriage houses, the large and small stables, the stalls, the haylofts and the former grooms’ quarters. These buildings were ahead of their time, as they were equipped with ingenious and innovative systems: a medicine cabinet, a battery-powered telephone linked to the château, an oat dispenser, etc. - A model 19th-century farmstead forming a courtyard around which are situated a residential house (220 sqm), a dovecote, a shed for agricultural equipment, a cider press, a turret serving as a water tank, a henhouse and kennels. - A caretaker’s house located near the vegetable garden, in poor condition. - A forest lodge (95 sqm) in working order, currently let on a temporary basis as a hunting lodge for hunters. - A greenhouse situated in the large vegetable garden. - A farm comprising a residential building (99 sqm) and farm buildings, some of stone construction, others of the shed type. The property comprises grounds surrounding the château, the site of which is listed as a historic monument (see below) due to its high degree of historical integrity, representing the 19th century. The property is undulating, with a stream running through the centre that feeds into and flows through approx. 4.8 ares pond . The deciduous and coniferous woodland is covered by a Simple Management Plan covering an area of approx. 388 acres. In addition to the plan’s value as a tool for managing the forest, it allows for an IFI tax exemption amounting to three-quarters of its value. The farm buildings are leased under a rural tenancy agreement, comprising approx. 35 acres of land and meadows. A few approx. 126 acres of freehold land, mainly situated around the château, still allow for keeping one’s own livestock. The entire estate covers a total area of 568 acres, forming a beautiful, cohesive whole, although there are a few isolated plots of modest size. The following parts are listed on the Inventory of Historic Monuments : Château, outbuildings and grounds : listed by order of 1990 This property is a historic monument (allowing fiscal tax cuts if you pay taxes in France).
