A 15th Century Manor With Reception Rooms, 10 Minutes From Beaches On The Côte De Goëlo Coast

A 15th-century manor with reception rooms, 10 minutes from beaches on the Côte de Goëlo coast in northern Brittany. The property is nestled a few hundred metres from the local village in a bucolic backdrop. A solid grey gate of wrought iron leads into the grounds. It is framed between two granite pillars, one of which has an outdoor lamp fixed to it. On either side, a low wall and tall hedges give the property absolute privacy. The manor and its outhouses form a U shape. On the grounds, which cover almost one hectare, several spaces can be distinguished: there is an ornamental, tree-dotted garden embellished with flowers on the west side, a south-facing courtyard, and a car park on the east side. An annexe houses a covered swimming pool that looks out at the ornamental garden. And an events venue with a wooden floor adjoins an outhouse to form a large reception space. You enter the manor from a short driveway that leads from the wrought-iron gate. The edifice dates back to the 15th century, as a door surround upstairs and a spiral staircase indicate. The building has been redesigned several times over its long history. The year ‘1701’ is inscribed in the entrance door’s lintel. The dwelling is long and rectangular in shape. It has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. A gable slate roof crowns the house. The facade is made of pink rubble granite. Ashlar forms the window and door surrounds. There are many small-paned windows. The entrance door stands in a recess, beneath a rectangular window. A dormer with a triangular pediment gives character to the edifice’s west end. There is a secondary door beside a schist sundial that dates back to 1740. A cavity in the facade once formed an alcove for a dog. Opposite, there is a dome-covered well crowned with a granite cross. Pale gravel covers the courtyard. Wisteria grows up the facade.
