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.

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.

Ref.4540 : Authentic 16th Century Manor House and its outbuildings in Mayenne department Set in the Haut-Anjou region, in undulating, wooded countryside, this charming property is located in Mayenne, not far from the river of the same name. A small town with basic amenities is just 5 km away. The ancient medieval city of Château-Gontier, 16 km away, is also crossed by the Mayenne and boasts a rich architectural heritage. These include the former Ursuline Convent (dating from the 17th century), which now houses a national theatre, the Romanesque church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste (dating from the 11th century) with its mural frescoes, and the timber-framed houses and concentration of private mansions that symbolise the wealth of this town. Laval, 19 km away, is a dynamic town with all the shops and services you need: supermarkets, campus, hospital, TGV high-speed train station with links to Paris in 1 hour 10 minutes, etc. The manor house, built in 1531, spans approx. 230 sqm. It was converted into a farm in the 19th century and was restored by the previous and current owners. Built on rock, in schist stone (there is an old quarry in the commune), additions in tufa stone, typical of the Anjou region, were made in particular to the cross and transom windows on the upper floor. The manor house has been extended by a building, probably dating from the 18th century, which could be converted (120 sqm, not included in the 230 sqm). It faces south and comprises Ground floor (terracotta tiled floor): a 43 sqm lounge with 3.5 m high ceilings and a monumental fireplace, two bedrooms of 19 and 11 sqm, a 20 sqm kitchen, a stairway leading to a bathroom and shower room and a separate toilet. Access from the kitchen to a large 60 sqm cellar for conversion. First floor (terracotta tiled floor): a landing leading to: two bedrooms, each with monumental fireplace, measuring 44 and 33 sqm, a shower room with toilet. Access to a 65 sqm attic for conversion, situated above the large ground floor storeroom. Above (parquet flooring, insulated attic): two bedrooms of 15 sqm each, a shower room and toilet. Outbuildings : A/ A large stone barn of approx. 100 sqm with an old fibre cement slate roof. A 25 sqm lean-to at the rear. B/ A former stone farm lodge spanning approx. 50 sqm with a slate roof (2000s). C/ A pigsty building (x6), attic upstairs, built of breezeblock, concrete roofing; door and window frames recently repainted the colour of oxblood; D/ A stone, slate-roofed lean-to building attached to the manor house, used as a boiler room (approx. 15 sqm). With a total surface area of 2,3 acres, it has an outbuilding courtyard, a pleasure garden, a vegetable garden, an orchard and a meadow, all bordered by hedgerows. Situated in a dominant position on the southern horizon, the manor house enjoys far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside.

A 17th century manor house and its 25 ha estate on the banks of the Mayenne . From a small road leading along the picturesque banks of the river to Château-Gontier, a gate provides access to the stately almost 400 m long driveway of the property, bordered by a double row of tulip trees. A courtyard and two formal rectangular gardens face the manor house to the south. To the east flows the river Mayenne. To the west, the wooded hillside gently slopes down. To the north, there are a technical building and a garage, farm buildings, a stream, woodlands and ponds. The property is unoverlooked.

Situated in Southern Brittany, near the market town of Redon with its direct TGV rail connection to Paris, and close to the navigable River Oust, this character manor house sits within approximately 1.7 hectares (4.2 acres) of grounds, much of which is enclosed by traditional stone walls. With its distinctive tower, carved gargoyles and attractive mix of stone, granite and decorative brickwork, this is a property that immediately catches the eye. While substantial renovation work is required, the manor retains many original features and offers the opportunity to restore an authentic French home full of character and history. One of the major advantages of the property is that part of the house is already habitable in a simple manner, making it possible to stay on site whilst renovation work progresses. The western wing currently provides a living room with fireplace, a kitchen with adjoining utility and storage area, and on the first floor five bedrooms, two bathrooms and two separate WCs. The central section comprises a large entrance hall, a reception room with an impressive granite fireplace, a staircase hall and a former kitchen featuring an unusual decorative mosaic fireplace. Above, a large attic offers further development potential. The eastern wing is centred around a large room divided into two sections with a marble corner fireplace. The upper floors remain to be renovated and still retain a number of interesting period features, including decorative cement floor tiles, a cast-iron bath, an original wash basin and several cast-iron radiators. Outside, an attached barn offers the possibility of increasing the usable space of the property, subject to any necessary permissions. Two further detached outbuildings are also present, although their condition is such that renovation would not be possible under current planning regulations. Although this is unquestionably a substantial renovation project, it benefits from several important advantages that are often difficult to find together in a property of this age: solid roofs, mains drainage, fibre-optic internet and a peaceful rural setting whilst remaining within easy reach of shops, services and transport links. For buyers seeking a genuine restoration project rather than a modernised property, this manor offers the chance to create a remarkable home whilst preserving many of the architectural features that give the building its identity.
