A 14th-century manor house with outbuildings and 2 5 hectares of grounds, five minutes from beaches in Brittany's Finistère department, near the city of Brest. The residence is situated in the countryside, not far from the sea. A small road leads past a hamlet of recently built houses to the property, which is closed off by an entrance gate framed by stone pillars. From there, a driveway lined with trees leads to the manor house. Surrounded by the manor's high walls and outbuildings, a gravel courtyard planted with trees and flowers is accessed through two wrought iron gates.
Hedges and trimmed shrubs line the facades. Near to the house, there is a well fed by a spring. The garden to the side and rear comprises a number of different areas, bordered by trimmed hedges.
There is a guest house located outside the perimeter of the courtyard and its various bordering buildings. An old bakehouse to the rear serves as an outbuilding. Finally, a dovecote stands in a meadow on the other side of the driveway.
Most of the buildings have slate gable roofs. Their facades are of local stone, gneiss rock and garnet mica schist. The majority of the windows and skylights are rectangular, half of the latter are topped by chimney stacks.
