Ref. 4179: Charming manor for sale close to the sea.

Located in the west of France, just a stone's throw from the ocean and its beaches, the Guérande region is renowned for its natural, architectural and cultural heritage.
Just a few kilometers from the fortified city inherited from the Dukes of Brittany, we offer you a manor nestled in its calm, verdant countryside.
So close to the famous medieval city with its exceptional heritage and salt marshes, but also just ten kilometers from the renowned seaside resort of La Baule.

The manor house is accessed from the north via a rabine, a kilometre-long tree-lined driveway in wooded surroundings.
The manor house and its outbuildings are accessed through a beautiful wrought-iron gate, held in place by two granite pillars topped by sculpted antique lions.
The buildings, forming two parallel wings, are set in a courtyard surrounded by an enclosing wall, entered through a gate with a carriage and pedestrian door.
The dwelling has a regular rectangular plan. The three-storey, bay facade features a first floor, a square-plan upper floor and an overhanging attic. It is flanked by two wings rising to two levels, first floor and overhanging roof.
The courtyard façade of the main building features three bays covered with straight granite lintels. Built of granite rubble with ashlar chain, the dwelling is covered with a long-sloped slate roof. The truss and purlin roof structure could be a replacement for the original manor house.
On the other side of the courtyard is the outbuildings wing (approx. 350 sqm), parallel to the logis.
The dwelling has a surface area of over 500 sqm. It has been restored and largely converted. It is perfectly habitable in its current state. Most of the rooms are walk-through, with plenty of light.
On the ground floor, there's a lovely fitted kitchen. Very bright and white, with stone fireplace and beamed ceiling (36 sqm), it opens onto the courtyard and garden. The kitchen leads to a scullery. On the other side, a dining room (27 sqm), an entrance hall with a beautiful oak staircase with a superb wrought-iron railing, then a living room, where whiteness reigns supreme, with 18th-century woodwork, a marble fireplace, ceiling moldings and a travertine floor with underfloor heating (28 sqm). A romantic alcove provides seclusion and a view of the park. Finally, a cosy library with mahogany shelving invites you to read. A wooden fireplace, natural stone floor and beamed ceiling add to the room's charm.
The 1st floor features two large, light-filled bedrooms with marble fireplaces, oak parquet flooring and ceiling moldings, featuring a white finish (27 sqm), another bedroom that could be used as a child's bedroom (13 sqm) and two bathrooms.
The 2nd floor under the rafters is ready for conversion, the structural work having been completed. There are two rooms of 27 sqm and 50 sqm, and a room that can be used as a bathroom and toilet, with all utilities in place. The frame is superb, in the shape of an upside-down ship's hull, and needs to be enhanced.
The adjoining large two-storey pavilion, accessible from the dwelling, would be ideal for a gîte or guest house, with a surface area of approx. 180 sqm.
The first floor of the small pavilion (above the kitchen) could also be converted.

In addition to the large main building with a possible second floor, there is an old bread oven, two small kennels, an old henhouse, a ruined barn, two ruined sheds and the remains of an old chapel.

The surface area of the property is 3.7 hectares. It is entirely enclosed, either by old stone walls or wire fencing.
In front of the manor house, in the square courtyard to the south-west, are numerous rose bushes and shrubs.
To the north-east, the 5,000 sqm stone-walled garden at the rear of the manor house offers a relaxing country setting. Here you'll find numerous fruit trees, some very rare, bursting with fruit (pear, apple, plum, mirabelle and fig trees), hundred-year-old trees such as oak, chestnut and lime, and a lawn inviting you to sit back and enjoy the peace and quiet. A well provides watering.
The oak and deciduous woodlands are protected. An old bridle path can be seen through the woods, providing another means of access to the estate.
