Surrounded by its grounds of just over 19 hectares, it offers a haven of tranquility and a life of complete privacy within its landscaped park. It overlooks a coastal river that winds its way through 15 municipalities and is considered one of Brittany’s most beautiful river landscapes. For a long time, it played a key role in supplying towns from the sea.

The facades are accentuated by a projecting central section that serves as both a gable and a pavilion, creating a harmonious interplay of volumes.

It is very close to a village of over 3,000 inhabitants which offers all essential amenities.

The property is situated in a rural setting. A gate opens onto a small path leading to the château, set within wooded grounds. This residence is distinguished by its late 19th-century architecture, typical of those elegant, characterful houses inspired by the eclectic style, where classical rigour blends with decorative whimsy. The coat of arms of the former owners is visible on the triangular pediment of the façade. The perfectly proportioned façade is organised around a distinct central axis, emphasised by a slightly projecting bay. This is crowned by a richly ornamented pointed gable, a true architectural signature, incorporating brickwork patterns, geometric motifs and small arched openings, which enliven the composition. The whole structure rests on light-coloured rendered masonry, punctuated by a frame of exposed red bricks. This contrast, both understated and graphic, subtly highlights the openings, the corner ties and the horizontal bands, giving the façade a structured appearance, reinforced by the tall windows, arranged over two levels, which lend verticality and elegance.

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). It is rare to find such a comprehensive estate today, constituting a property that is exceptional in every respect.

Ref.4894 : 17th C.country chateau in the heart of Upper Brittany To the south of Rennes, between the Vilaine and Semnon valleys, the property is set in unspoilt Breton countryside — with valleys, meadows and wooded areas — just a few minutes’ drive from shops, schools and medical facilities, and in the immediate vicinity of a railway station providing high-speed rail links to Rennes and on to Paris. A sought-after area, on the border between historic Brittany and the Anjou region. A gravel-surfaced driveway winds through the grounds, flanked by tall cedars and conifers, gradually revealing the château’s façades as it winds past the lawns, offering a serene approach that sets the scene for exploring the property. Built in several phases during the 17th century, the château displays a fine architectural unity. The façades, constructed of schist and rubble stone, are accentuated by light-coloured cut-stone frames around the openings; in places, wisteria or Virginia creeper clings to them. The high, steeply pitched slate roofs are punctuated by dormer windows with arched pediments and tall chimney stacks, lending the whole building a noble and balanced silhouette — without ostentation, in keeping with the understated style of the stately homes of Upper Brittany. The 560 sqm of living space features a particularly clear layout, organised around generous reception areas and a spacious sleeping area. The ground floor: The entrance hall, with its floor of antique terracotta tiles and exposed beams, offers sweeping views towards the living rooms and the grounds; the wooden staircase leads to the first floor. The grand drawing room, the centrepiece of the house, retains its painted panelling from floor to ceiling, a marble fireplace surmounted by a trumeau, and its original parquet flooring; the tall windows open wide onto the grounds and the inner courtyard. The dining room, which opens onto the grounds, is also panelled, beneath two exposed main beams, and features its own wooden fireplace; it connects to the pantry and then the kitchen, with its exposed stone walls and dark beams, which retains all its rustic character whilst being able to open out onto a large family space. A second sitting room, overlooking the courtyard and also featuring a fireplace, is generously proportioned and could easily be converted into a ground-floor bedroom; a utility room, a bathroom and a pantry complete this level, enabling a truly ground-floor lifestyle. The first floor: The eight bedrooms, accessed via a spacious landing, are generously proportioned and enjoy plenty of natural light, with views over the grounds. Several have retained their original fireplaces — one of which features an imposing carved wooden mantelpiece — as well as their original wooden floors, which bear witness to the house’s history. Two bathrooms complete this level, which is well suited to both family living and hospitality. In the loft, accessible from the first floor via a staircase, there is a convertible attic space. The outbuildings, constructed of stone and rendered, are arranged around a gravel-surfaced service courtyard: garage, workshop, storage areas and annexes that can be adapted to suit specific projects. Some retain their rustic authenticity and offer real potential for restoration. Set apart in the grounds stands a well-preserved circular dovecote, a testament to the estate’s former seigneurial status; nearby lie the masonry remains of an old chapel. The grounds, enclosed by ancient walls and covering approximately 3.3 acres (1.35 hectares), consist of vast lawns dotted with mature trees — cedars, conifers, deciduous trees and fruit trees — which frame the views as the seasons change. The gardens serve as an extension of the reception rooms; further on, an old orchard evokes the traditional layout of country estates. A swimming pool in need of restoration is situated nearby, though not visible from here, in a more secluded part of the grounds.
