6 Bed Property for sale
Saint-Brieuc, Cotes-d'Armor, Brittany, France
Full Description
A renovated 15th-century Breton manor with vast grounds and a medieval garden, nestled between Lamballe and Dinan in northern Brittany. The property is tucked away in a hamlet not far from its local town. Country lanes that snake through woods and meadows lead up to the property. The manor comes into view beyond a bend in the road. The edifice towers above its natural surroundings. The estate covers around two hectares. A shrub-lined drive leads into it. This drive takes you to a court. The manor and two outhouses stand around this court: one outhouse is a former dwelling and the other is a former barn. The manor was mentioned as early as in the 15th century. It was redesigned in the 17th century. Over a period of several years, the edifice was renovated by its occupants, who were driven by their passion for built heritage and history and by a concern for authenticity, quality and sustainability. They aimed to turn the edifice into a comfortable, inviting family home. The loft is insulated with cellulose fibre. The rest of the interior is insulated with hemp and earth for thermal regulation.
