Business description

This country property comprises of a main house currently undergoing renovation, a large barn for conversion to a dwelling or a workshop and three sympathetically renovated character cottages located in a small hamlet in central Brittany.

The slate-roofed courtyard farm with 17th Century origins offers excellent income potential and is suitable for both short and long letting.

The original stone house was built in the early 20th Century, with red brick detail and chimneys. This property is partially renovated and has a designated lounge area with a winding oak staircase, a room that would become a good sized kitchen with double glazed patio doors that then leads on to a would be terrace with a private garden. On the first floor you will find two good sized bedrooms partially finished with room for a family bathroom whilst the attic space has been converted into a further bedroom / study. At the front of the house there is a private courtyard with a pergola and a renovated former “curing” house which would provide a beautiful BBQ and summer dining area.

In addition to the accommodation listed above, adjoining the one bedroom cottage is a 10 x 5.5m two storey barn with a slate roof, providing potential for further accommodation or a workshop / garage. The barn has a separate septic tank installed in 1999, ready for connection to the soak-away drainage system. Behind the barn there is a stone greenhouse
