45 Minutes From Saint Malo And Mont Saint Michel, An 18th Century Estate With 25 Ha Of Grounds

45 minutes from Saint-Malo and Mont-Saint-Michel, an 18th-century estate with 25 ha of grounds and lakes. The estate brings together a chateau, three converted outbuildings, a reception hall, an outdoor pool and a chapel. It now operates as a setting for weddings, family stays and private events, with sixteen bedrooms across a total floor area of 960 m². The buildings stand within 25 hectares of grounds, where streamside paths cross a varied landscape of small valleys, woodland and lakes. Chateaubriand mentions in his writings the painter François-Agathon Pinot-du-Petit-Bois, then resident here; his canvases, recovered from the attic by the current occupants and carefully restored, now hang in the chateau’s sitting rooms and bedrooms.

Running north to south, the principal dwelling — around 450 m², dating from the 19th century — backs onto an earlier manor whose known origins reach to 1429. To the north, the main house flanked by two pavilions rises beneath gabled slate roofs. Six regular bays articulate a slender, yellow-rendered facade across three levels, the window surrounds and quoins picked out in russet granite. A prominent scrolled-wing dormer crowned by a carved pediment marks the centre of the roofline, while a corner turret rises at the northwest. To the south, facing the great parterre, the older dwelling stands in dressed sandstone and granite — rectangular in plan, seven regular bays across three levels, beneath a slate roof.
