BRITTANY COUNTRY HOME WITH POOL FOR SALE DIRECT BY OWNER
Looking for a real French style country home in the heart of Brittany?
Listed as 1831, but likely built much earlier, this traditional French home is a delight for those seeking the real deal. Sitting on a plot of almost an acre, many original features have been retained during the renovation, and the last decorative finishes are ongoing, as can be seen in the photos.
This 4 bed home, has extra as yet unconverted space available, and comes with 2 very large barns, ideal for conversion for many uses. Master bedroom features a balcony with ancient slate steps to ground floor. On the ground floor is a huge lounge/diner with 2 fireplaces, a very large kitchen also with a fireplace, double sink and dishwasher,built in table, Welsh dresser and a walk in larder, a bathroom with jacuzzi, vanity unit & WC and a utility room. All the hard renovation work has been done. Now fully insulated, this property has been rewired and re-plumbed. All windows have been replaced with double glazed units. The featured 1 metre thick walls help keep the house warm in the winter and cool in the summer. To the rear of this private and non-overlooked home, you will find a new 3.6 metre hexagonal shape, above ground plunge pool the children will love, and a delight for those hot days and sultry evenings, where Mum & Dad can relax with a glass of wine. The plot which surrounds the property is laid mainly to lawn with numerous trees, shrubs, plants and flowers that will keep any gardener happy. There is a well in the garden and has a private driveway leading up to the house, with parking for many vehicles. If you are looking for a home in a rural setting, and don’t mind a little light renovation to finish off, this could be the one you are looking for. Reduced from it’s valuation to reflect the work needed to complete, we think you’ll love it.
Local Area.
St. Gilles de Vieux Marche is a 4 star village fleuri bedecked each year with stunning floral displays. All the villagers are justly proud of their awards and their wonderful verdant surroundings.
Facilities in the village include tennis courts, a fishing lake, sixteenth century fountain and the Callac standing stone. There is a picturesque hotel and bar with an excellent restaurant which serves a lunchtime five course meal with wine for the grand sum of ten euro. The closest shops are in St. Mayeux (3.5 km. ) which has two supermarkets, post office and bar.
The Poulancre valley leads from the village to the town of Mur de Bretagne (4.5 km.) which has the full range of shops , supermarkets, bakeries, chemists, bank, post office and various restaurants and bars. This is a great place to spend a few hours and the local tourist office can be found beside the church in the centre.The very helpful staff will be glad to suggest various outings and events.
Pontivy (22 km. ) is a large town with a beautiful chateau and old town quarter. Formerly called Napoleonville after his design of the new town it has a beautiful setting on the Nantes-Brest canal and has everything you could possibly need for a day’s excursion including a swimming pool. Josellin with its fairytale castle and the city of St. Brieuc with its shopping centres are other places to while away a few hours. St. Gilles’s location is ideal for exploring the charms of central Brittany and enjoying its most welcoming people.Its traffic free roads and no rush attitude will remind you of an era that has long ago disappeared into our cultural heritage. Come and enjoy its charming villages,valleys,forests and lakes with miles of walks along the Blavet river and the Nantes to Brest canal. The eight mile long Lac de Guerledan is only five minutes away with various safe sandy beaches and lakeside restaurants. For the water enthusiast you can hire a motor boat, canoe, kayak, rowing boat or pedalo. You may take a trip on a pleasure cruiser to explore the tranquil waters and even enjoy a delightful meal on board. Beaches on all three coasts are within easy reach with the closest being Les Etables sur Mer beside St. Brieuc on the north coast only thirty miles distant. Carnac on the south coast and Benodet on the west coast are two of the most popular resorts in Brittany and are ideally suited for a day trip.If you should go to Carnac don’t miss visiting the standing stones which are awesome.
The 6 home hamlet is just outside this picturesque village.
