listed castle for sale Rennes, France

On the banks of the Rance, between Dinan and Dinard, a manor from the 16th and 18th centuries listed as a historical monument, its outbuildings, and its chapel. From a departmental road, a first gateway flanked by granite pillars accesses the estate, which extends over more than 30 hectares. A long avenue of oaks leads after more than 300 meters to a second gate, pierced in a stone wall enclosure, which protects the manor and the ancillary buildings, including a chapel. It is possible to reach a longhouse as well as part of the outbuildings independently, without passing through the lordly residence. Facing south, the latter overlooks the Rance. In Renaissance style, the facade indicates a construction from the mid-16th century. The building is notably distinguished by its cut-off staircase tower, topped by a square volume covered with a four-pitched slate roof supported by granite corbels. Terracotta finials and decorative mitrons adorn the two-pitched roof of the house. Reconfigurations and extensions date back to the 18th century, with the creation of two lower wings, surmounted by dormers with a hipped roof. Finally, a small, more recent building to the east houses a kitchen. The whole is built of sandstone and granite rubble, partially covered with a light render. The chains and the surrounds of the openings are made of cut granite stone. To the north, partially adjoining the building, the outbuildings border an enclosed area, a remnant of an old vegetable garden and a courtyard. Beyond, the longhouse was rebuilt in the 19th century to replace an old farmstead. The lands are surrounded by meadows and woods as well as by the river below, without neighbors or nuisances.This description has been automatically translated from French.

An 18th-century chateau listed as a historical monument with many outbuildings and 20 hectares of grounds, nestled in France’s Morbihan department. The landscape is gently undulating, with forests, meadows, farmland and hamlets. You drive down country lanes to reach the property, which then gradually comes into view. The chateau and its outbuildings, whose story can be traced back to the 13th century, stand on 20 hectares of grounds, beside wooded hills. An imposing gate marks the main entrance. Beyond it, a driveway leads to the edifice in a straight line. The chateau was built in the 18th century where a manor once stood. It faces east and west. In the following century, it was successively redesigned, with some inelegant vestiges next to it removed. It has a semi-basement, a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. The edifice has a central section framed between two pavilions. An adjoining section protrudes from the north end. Beside country roads, several other entrances lead to the different outbuildings on the north side. There is a farm building and a farmyard with stables, a hen house, a dovecote, a utility room, a pig shed, a barn and a kennel. Near the farmyard, on the west side, there is a former orchard with a small dwelling and a greenhouse. This vast plot is enclosed within walls. Beyond it, gardens and meadows make up the rest of the grounds.
