Remarkably situated on its rocky promontory at the confluence of a stream and the canalised river Oust, on the edge of its 3 hectares of meadows and woods, this superb 1920s residence enabled the wealthy miller who had it built to keep a watchful eye on the lock quay and his neighbouring flour mill.
Today, the manor boasts magnificent views over the banks of the Nantes-Brest canal and its landscaped grounds, home to the superb peacocks and felines that roam freely.
Situated on the edge of footpaths and just an hour’s drive from the north and south-west coasts, it’s an ideal location for enjoying the Pontivy area, but also for exploring the many tourist attractions of Brittany.
The four-storey manor house has a raised ground floor comprising an entrance hall opening onto a corridor leading to the rooms on this level and three staircases, two leading up to the upper floors and one leading down to the lower level. A fitted kitchen opening on to a dining room with a fireplace, a lounge and a second dining room, also with a fireplace. A second kitchen, a study with a fireplace, a toilet and a shower room complete this level.
The first floor comprises a central hallway leading to two staircases, three bedrooms with en suite shower rooms, two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, another bedroom and a toilet.
The second and top floor, with sloping ceilings, comprises a hallway, a study, two bedrooms with shower rooms and a large 60 sqm room used for a variety of activities.
The basement, on the garden level, includes the technical areas: laundry room, boiler room with pellet boiler, pellet storage and distribution room, bicycle room and workshop, cellar.
The house reflects the art deco style of the period in which it was built: 1920s architecture, wood panelling, mouldings, balconies, bow windows and high ceilings all contribute to the overall charm of the setting, bordered by the peaceful, secret waters of the River Oust and lulled by the passing boats at the lock.
The adjoining land, where the river runs, is approx. 3,400 sqm and is ideal for landscaping. The property also includes more than 3 hectares of woodland and meadows.
Vannes station is 45 minutes away and Rennes airport is 1 hour away, providing quick and easy access to the property. The resource town is just a stone’s throw away, with all the essential shops and amenities.
