Ref. 4129: Beautiful 18th Century historicalproperty for sale at the gates of a medieval city (Partial listing in the MH inventory).
This historic residence is located in a town steeped in history and culture, one of the most beautiful medieval towns in Western France, in a region renowned for its natural beauty, diverse landscapes, salt marshes, numerous beaches and coves and exceptional gastronomy. It's an ideal place to live for those who love the art of living and authenticity.
The period of construction, the 18th century, was characterised by a renewed interest in classical architecture and sophisticated decorative elements. This manor house bears witness to this craze, a true architectural marvel combining elegance with the charm of the period.
Set between courtyard and garden, this residence spans a floor surface area of approx. 280 sqm. Built of rendered granite rubble with dressed stone surrounds and quoins, it has a rectangular, four-storey plan with a slate-covered hipped roof.
The remarkably well-preserved courtyard facade is centred with a pediment on pilasters with massive buttresses.
From the courtyard, the porch opens onto a vestibule with a wooden and wrought iron staircase decorated with embossed sheet metal. A second vestibule follows onto the garden. The door overmantels feature painted marine canvases.
On either side, a dining room (29 sqm), kitchen, shower room and toilet are arranged to the south.
To the north is a superb lounge (42 sqm ) and a library (30 sqm). The large ground floor lounge, with its 18th century parquet flooring, is decorated with grey painted wood panelling. The door tops are decorated with paintings.
These vast living spaces are perfect for hosting large receptions or simply for enjoying luxurious surroundings on a daily basis. The rooms feature high ceilings, intricate woodwork, marble fireplaces, original wooden floors and large windows that let in an abundance of natural light.
On the first floor, to the left of the landing, is the blue bedroom with an anteroom and a corner recess forming a cupboard. It has an alcove flanked on the right by a door leading to the adjoining bedroom. There are two cupboards on either side of the fireplace.
The yellow bedroom overlooking the garden is at the back of the stairwell. This is followed by the master bedroom with a grey anteroom and a small cupboard. The master bedroom, painted green, has an alcove, a red breche fireplace and a cupboard on either side. There are two bathrooms on the 1st floor.
To the west, a corridor with 19th century cupboards leads to a small stairway leading to the neighbouring building, perpendicular to the house.
In the past, the stairwell was covered with a painted faux-apparatus decoration typical of the late 19th century. Some of this decoration has survived in the flight of stairs leading to the attic. The roof structure consists of trusses with crossbeams regularly pierced with circular holes with Saint Andrew's crosses flanked by posts. The floor features terracotta tiles arranged in a diamond pattern.
Cellar of approx. 100 sqm.
Convertible attic.
A covered garage for two vehicles.
The fully enclosed grounds cover around 3,000 sqm. This haven of peace lets you soak up the sun by the pool, cool off under the protective arms of the cedar or in the avenue of lime trees.
The property can be accessed in two ways: via a courtyard of honour leading to the street, or via a gate at the rear of the property leading to a driveway lined with lime trees.
