A manor with 15th-century origins, with outbuildings and almost 13 hectares of meadows, on the Fringes of Rennes, in the middle of wooded countryside. The property can be reached from a small country road, along a no-through lane. The manor is a former rural and manorial complex whose origins date back to the 15th century. It is listed as part of France’s general cultural heritage and is set around a courtyard opening out onto a landscape of meadows and hedgerows. The property includes a main residence altered in the 18th century, a longhouse with a large reception room, as well as several outbuildings. The stone buildings, which are made of shale rubble stone and mainly topped with slate roofs, boast several features typical of Brittany’s architecture, such as a square staircase tower topped by a pavilion roof, ashlar surrounds on the openings and still visible rural volumes. Next to the manor, there are two wells, one of which is fitted with a submersible pump. The land is mainly made up of meadows, some of which are bordered by pastureland fences. A stream crosses through the centre of the property and runs below the patio of the longhouse, which dominates the surrounding countryside. An 8,200-m² area situated in the immediate vicinity of the main buildings is listed as a tourist attraction related natural zone, which allows the creation of tourist accommodation as well as the development of leisure activities and event hosting. The longhouse is declared as a holiday cottage and has reception capacity for 80 people and accommodation capacity for 15 people. The property is authorised to welcome members of the public and has a good rating for its accessibility for people with reduced mobility.

Ref. 4878 : Breton hamlet with a manor house, holiday cottages and a wooded garden between Rennes and Dinan Located 35 km north-west of Rennes, this group of houses enjoys a beautiful rural setting. The N12, just 10 km from the hamlet, provides easy access to the Breton capital, its hospital, its TGV station (connecting to Paris in 1 hour 30 minutes) and its airport. Schools, colleges and sixth-form colleges, shops and supermarkets, and doctors’ surgeries are a 10-minute drive away. The station in this small town provides a 20-minute journey to Rennes, ensuring convenience for those who work there. Nearby, tourist attractions offer a rich and varied cultural programme throughout the year: the medieval town of Dinan; Bécherel, the ‘City of Books’, a medieval village with 15 bookshops and its famous book fair; Combourg Castle, owned by Châteaubriant in the 19th century; Saint-Malo, the pirate city; and, of course, Rennes, with its Parliament of Brittany and its Opera House. Finally, the beaches of the Emerald Coast, notably Saint-Malo and Dinard, are less than 45 minutes away, offering easy access to a delightful and sought-after seaside setting. Originally, there was a farmhouse and two outbuildings, which were undoubtedly used for agricultural purposes at the time. Restored and extended in the 1960s, then in the 2000s and 2020s, they are clad in slate, with walls alternating between exposed stone and rendered surfaces. Visitors come upon them at the end of a cul-de-sac lined with cultivated fields. Like a small hamlet, the complex consists of a main house, currently occupied by the owners, and a second building featuring a tower, known as ‘the Manor’, divided into several dwellings currently let as holiday cottages. The various buildings, covering a total area of 400 sqm, are spread out across the grounds, ensuring each has its own private space. THE MANOR HOUSE: On arrival, the first building you come to is ‘the Manor House’. The doors on either side of its tower provide access to two properties, guest rooms and a flat: The first gîte is on one level: living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, a shower room. The second gîte is spread over the ground floor and first floor: living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, a shower room. The staircase in the tower leads to the guest rooms on the first floor. There are two of them, each with its own shower room. This spiral staircase then leads to a flat in the attic: living room with kitchen, two bedrooms, and a shower room. THE MAIN HOUSE: Set back from this first building, past the small porch topped with an ermine carved into the stone, lies the main house, which is itself divided into two sections: The owners’ current living quarters are arranged around an entrance hall, a large living room with a kitchen area, a bedroom, a shower room and a utility room on the ground floor. A wooden staircase leads to the first-floor landing, which leads to: - On one side of this landing, two bedrooms and a bathroom. - On the other, a bedroom, a shower room and a small kitchen. These latter rooms form a small flat that can be separated from the rest of the property via an external staircase. In the attic, a loft has been converted for storage. A further gîte, adjoining this property yet with its own separate entrance, comprises a living room with kitchen, a shower room on the ground floor and two adjoining bedrooms on the first floor. With its optimised accommodation capacity, this group of houses is ideal for operating as holiday cottages for tourists wishing to enjoy the region’s cultural riches, or for work teams on assignment in Rennes or one of the surrounding business parks. This hamlet could also be designed to accommodate a large family, with a main residence suitable for year-round living and fully self-contained annexes, ready to be opened and heated depending on whether they are occupied permanently or temporarily. OUTBUILDINGS : A two-storey building with a slate roof is accessible from the garden. It is likely a former smithy, with a stone base and rammed-earth walls. Its 50 sqm currently provide a spacious storage area, with the advantage of being on one level across both storeys. A large cellar and a small terrace, adjoining this building, complete the property. A large carport, situated at the entrance to the property, can easily accommodate three cars. LAND : Each of the ground-floor homes features a courtyard or terrace. All are paved, allowing for easy movement between each unit. Their south-east and south-west exposures make it easy to enjoy them. The entire 3,772 sqm garden is landscaped, filled with flowers and trees, and surrounded by fields; this particularly peaceful setting encourages residents to live in tune with the seasons, with a view of the surrounding harvests. The arrangement of the trees, particularly the fruit trees, offers a glimpse of various idyllic and harmonious worlds for those who love gardening.
