Property. Ref: NTN-DN744 Date Added: 06-March-2020 Map / Approx. Location

Situated 25 mns south of Rennes, the chateau dates back to the 16th et 17th centuries and is on the market with it part-liveable longère, stables block, falcon house and pigeon house, as well as its 11,25 acres of grounds with the decorative moat. The main wing of the castle dates back to the 16th century, is west facing and has a square tower to each side. In the 17th century the second wing was added. Now on the ground floor you have an entrance hall, two massive reception rooms, the old kitchens, a bedroom with en suite bathroom as well as a study. On the first floor there are six bedrooms, three of which have private bathrooms (and two of those are in the towers), a fourth bathroom. Above this, accessed by discreet staircases are the loft rooms and old servants? quarters that have remain pretty well untouched. The outbuildings include a part liveable longère with kitchen, bathroom and large dormitory bedroom, then the old stable block. These form two sides of the enclosed livery yard, along with the falcon house, the rest is enclosed by 5ft walls. The pigeon house completes the property with its 400 odd cots. The old moats have no defensive reason, more decorative so to speak, but will need some husbandry to gain their former glory. The present owner has already done some major work to the property; the roof was replaced in 2002, as well as masonry work, electric in part of the chateau and septic tanks, now it just need someone who is willing to give back its interior glory! dont 4.46 % honoraires TTC à la charge de l'acquéreur.
