A Listed Manor Dating Back To The 16th Century With Outhouses And A Chapel, Beside The River

A listed manor dating back to the 16th century with outhouses and a chapel, beside the River Rance, between the towns of Dinan and Dinard in Brittany. From a country road, a gate framed between granite pillars leads into the estate, which covers more than 30 hectares. A long drive lined with oaks runs over more than 300 metres to a second entrance gate in a stone wall that encloses the manor and the outhouses, which include a chapel. You can also reach a long dwelling and some of the outhouses separately, without having to go via the manor. The manor faces south and looks down at the River Rance. Its Renaissance-style facade suggests the edifice was built in the mid-16th century. The building stands out for its staircase tower with bevelled edges, capped with a square section that is crowned with a hipped slate roof, which flares out at the bottom and is supported by small granite corbels. Glazed terracotta finials and chimney stack terminals with motifs adorn the manor’s gabled roof. The edifice includes extensions that date back to the 18th century, including two low wings with dormers. Lastly, a small, more recent section lies at the east end. It houses a kitchen. The whole manor is built of sandstone and granite rubble, partly coated with pale rendering. The quoins and window surrounds are made of exposed dressed granite. On the north side, there are outhouses that partly adjoin the edifice. They lie beside a walled plot – the remains of a former kitchen garden and farmyard. Beyond, there is a long house that was rebuilt in the 19th century to replace a former farmhouse. The grounds are surrounded by meadows and woods, as well as the river lower down. The estate enjoys absolute privacy and calm, with no neighbours or unwanted noise.
