10 minutes from Rennes, with its outbuildings and a 3-hectare park, a Louis XIII period chateau, listed as a Historic Monument (MH). Mentioned as early as 1419 and rebuilt in 1655, the chateau is in the Louis XIII style, typical of 17th-century architecture. Listed as MH since 1969, the residence occupies an area of about 646 m². It consists of a central body, extended by two slightly projecting pavilions. The main facade is plastered and divided by five regular bays over four levels of elevation. The building is topped with a high slate roof, pierced by dormer windows with arched pediments. Weathervanes in the shape of fleur-de-lis surmount the pavilions. The window frames are made of limestone, with fluted jambs. Each floor is delineated by a molded belt, also in limestone. The decorative elements are discreet: coats of arms and suns carved in bas-relief. On the east facade, the ends of the pavilions are flanked by two corner turrets with timber framing, each crowned with an imperial roof and topped with a small pyramid-shaped bell tower. The rest of the property includes outbuildings, consisting of a lodge, two dovecotes also listed as MH, and a bakery. The entire estate is surrounded by a French-style topiary garden and a wooded park of over 3 hectares, featuring a pond, vegetable garden, rose garden, and tennis court.This description has been automatically translated from French.

Superb castle located just 15 minutes from the center of Rennes, with the TGV station connecting to Paris in 1 hour and 28 minutes, and only fifteen minutes from the airport. Established since 1419, this exceptional property was rebuilt in 1655 in the purest Louis XIII style. Listed in the Inventory of Historic Monuments, the building benefits from official heritage recognition, as well as the favorable tax regime for protected buildings, which is a key advantage for its enhancement and transmission. The central section, flanked by two slightly protruding pavilions, rises harmoniously over four levels. Dormer windows with curved pediments, harp-shaped door frames, molded bands, and limestone surrounds create a refined and perfectly balanced architecture. Two turrets topped with imperial roofs and lanterns highlight the silhouette, while the high slate roof, accented with ridge finials, underscores the property's elegance. The castle offers over 663 sqm of living space, not including outbuildings. The interiors blend spaciousness and elegance, featuring a superb master suite of about 50 sqm, five additional bedrooms—most with en-suite bathrooms—as well as large reception rooms of nearly 80 sqm, ideal for entertaining or hosting private events. The renovated old stone stables now include two large garages, a workshop, a laundry room with a spacious laundry area, and an independent guest house with two bedrooms, a dining room, and a kitchen. Additional highlights include a dovecote, a pigeon house converted into a wine cellar of over 25 sqm, and a former bakery, all contributing to the estate’s historic character. The property is set within a landscaped park of about 3.4 hectares, featuring a water feature, a small woodland, a rose garden, and a remarkable ginkgo tree—a true signature of the garden. Outdoor amenities also include a tennis court discreetly sheltered by hedges, and a well.

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.

Set within more than 15 hectares of landscaped and flowered parkland, Château de la Giraudais stands gracefully at the end of its wooded driveway. Rebuilt in 1782 on the foundations of a former fortified manor, the property has been meticulously restored to preserve its soul and heritage while embracing modern comfort and contemporary charm. The château's comprehensive renovation, begun in 2015, showcases fine materials and remarkable energy performance. Parquet floors in Versailles and ladder patterns, ornate steel radiators, and a majestic central staircase all contribute to an atmosphere that is both authentic and refined. Today, La Giraudais is more than a château — it is a welcoming and vibrant estate, designed for sharing and celebration. It offers spacious guest rooms, reception spaces for weddings, corporate events, and family gatherings, and accommodation for up to 45 guests across the château, guesthouse, and lodges. The estate still offers strong development potential, both in accommodation capacity and in weekday corporate hospitality. A 17th-century consecrated chapel allows for religious ceremonies, while outdoor weddings and receptions can be held among the estate's many enchanting settings — vineyards, flower gardens, a lakeside terrace, gazebo, and the château's front lawns. Inside, the château spans over 600 m² of living space, blending wood, stone, and light to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Shared areas — including a billiard room, bar lounge, and reading corner — foster conviviality and relaxation. Each suite has been elegantly appointed with noble materials and contemporary comfort. The reception facilities have been designed with professionals in mind: two spacious event halls (150 m² and 250 m²) with high-end sound systems and heating for winter use, two meeting rooms, a large equipped catering kitchen, storage areas, and modern sanitary blocks — all perfectly arranged for smooth and memorable events. Between heritage and modernity, Château de la Giraudais is a rare place — where timeless charm meets today's vitality. A place to live, to host, and to create unforgettable moments.

Overlooking the Rance Valley from a naturally defensive and perfectly preserved position, the estate enjoys an exceptional setting, entirely free from disturbance. The terraced parkland unfolds a spectacular plunging view, offering deep and ever-changing perspectives across the valley, between meadows, woodland and distant horizons, within a protected environment. The manor house, the historic heart of the property, embodies a restrained yet powerful architectural style, characteristic of late Renaissance Breton seigneurial residences. Built in local stone, it is distinguished by its balanced proportions, regular fenestration and steeply pitched slate roofs. In immediate proximity, an independent chapel of remarkable purity of line enhances the estate’s singular and heritage character. The outbuildings are harmoniously arranged around the manor, contributing to the overall coherence of the property: former stone dependencies, partly converted into living space, along with annexes and technical buildings, offer significant potential for reinterpretation. An independent caretaker’s house completes the ensemble. The landscaped grounds, structured in successive terraces, follow the natural topography and reveal a sequence of distinct settings. The relationship to the landscape is ever-present: each vantage point captures the valley in a commanding panoramic perspective, lending the property a truly contemplative yet sovereign dimension. At the crossroads of history, architecture and nature, this is a rare estate, destined for an ambitious vision — whether as a family residence, a reception domain, or a heritage asset to be revealed.
