A Beautifully Restored Character Home Between Countryside and Coast
A Beautifully Restored Character Residence Between Countryside and Coast, Just 20 Minutes from Vannes
Nestled within a peaceful cul-de-sac hamlet, this remarkable traditional Breton longhouse beautifully combines the timeless charm of a period property with the comfort and refinement of an exceptional contemporary renovation. Set within approximately 1.6 hectares (4 acres) of landscaped gardens, orchard and meadow, it enjoys a privileged rural setting where peace and tranquillity prevail, while remaining far from isolated, with just two neighbouring homes completing this intimate hamlet.
Offering approximately 277 sq m of living accommodation, the property has been thoughtfully designed for comfortable family living. From the moment you step inside, the generous proportions and abundance of natural light immediately reflect the quality of the restoration. The elegant 35 sq m sitting room provides a welcoming space for relaxation, while the impressive 38 sq m dining room, complemented by a cosy fireplace lounge, opens seamlessly onto the terrace and gardens. The fully fitted and equipped kitchen, open to the dining area, is complemented by an adjoining utility and boiler room. A spacious study and a ground-floor bedroom with an en-suite shower room provide the convenience of true single-level living.
Upstairs, a comfortable family lounge or TV room creates an additional space for relaxation and leads to four bedrooms, one of which benefits from its own en-suite shower room. A family bathroom with both bath and separate shower serves the remaining three bedrooms, while a loft provides valuable additional storage.
Extending from the main house, the former stone cowshed has been converted into a generous garage and storage area with direct internal access. At one end of the longhouse, an independent studio of approximately 40 sq m, currently being completed, offers further potential as guest accommodation, a home office, or self-contained living space.
The quality of the technical specification perfectly matches the elegance of the renovation. The property benefits from an air-source heat pump providing central heating, underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, radiators on the first floor, a new individual drainage system and an outstanding EPC A rating—an exceptionally rare achievement for a character property of this period.
A former agricultural barn of approximately 240 sq m, together with a traditional well, further enhances the versatility of the estate. Ideally located just 6 km from the shops and schools of Surzur, 12 km from the sandy beaches of Damgan and 24 km from Vannes TGV railway station, this exceptional property brings together authentic Breton character, abundant natural light and an outstanding quality of life in one of Southern Brittany's most desirable rural settings.
