Breton Heritage Haven

Noble 1786 Residence with Gardens

Dating back to 1786, this elegant home brings together centuries of Breton heritage and generous living space. Found just 30 minutes from Rennes and 20 minutes from the medieval town of Vitré, it offers daily services, schools, and shops nearby, with the Vitré TGV making Paris reachable in only two hours.

The stone façade, adorned with carved laurel details and dormer windows, reflects a distinguished past. Inside, 217 m² unfolds across three levels, featuring parquet floors, chestnut beams, and fireplaces—an ideal canvas for thoughtful renovation.

Highlights:

  • 217 m² of living space over three levels
  • Library lounge with wood paneling
  • Dining room with stone fireplace
  • Kitchen with terrace and garden access
  • Three spacious bedrooms plus attic rooms
  • 41 m² stone outbuilding for garage/storage
  • 260 m² walled garden with mature plantings

The ground floor offers a library lounge, dining room, and kitchen opening onto the terrace. Upstairs are two large bedrooms and a bathroom. The attic includes another bedroom, bathroom, and storage.

A private garden planted with birches, hydrangeas, and hollyhocks adds charm, while the outbuilding provides flexible space for parking or a workshop.

A distinguished property full of character, ready to be restored to its former glory.
