Brittany, Morbihan, France

Set in the heart of the beautiful Blavet Valley, in the highly sought-after village of Saint-Nicolas-des-Eaux, this unique riverside estate offers charm, history, and immense potential. Overlooking the river and within walking distance of the village's port, cafés, and towpaths, the property once thrived as a vibrant home and hospitality business - and now awaits its next chapter.



Set on over 5,300 m² of landscaped grounds, this substantial ensemble includes a 1930s main house, three independent apartments, a second dwelling (a beautifully repurposed former train station), a large garage/workshop, and several outbuildings in varying states of repair -including a partially damaged structure that may be suitable for renovation.



The main house retains all the charm of its period, with generous proportions, original features, and lovely views over the gardens and river. On the ground floor, a wide entrance hall leads into a bright 30 m² living room with fireplace and large bay window opening onto a riverside terrace. There is also a separate dining room, a fitted kitchen, and a WC. Upstairs, the landing opens onto a balcony, and leads to four bedrooms - one with en suite shower room, and two with balcony access - as well as a shared shower room with WC. The attic above is accessed by stairs and offers further convertible space.



On the lower garden level, the rear of the main house has been converted into a self-contained apartment with kitchen and two bedrooms, each with private shower room - ideal for holiday rentals or guest accommodation.



The former stables have been sensitively transformed into two additional apartments. The ground-floor unit is wheelchair-accessible and includes a kitchen/dining area, a lounge/bedroom with fireplace, two additional bedrooms, and a shower room with WC. The upper apartment is accessed via its own private terrace and offers a kitchen-living room, three bedrooms, and a shower room with WC.



Directly opposite the main house sits the former village train station, now fully converted into a charming dwelling with an open-plan lounge/kitchen on the ground floor and two en suite bedrooms upstairs - perfect as a gîte, long let or artist's retreat.



The property also includes a large garage/workshop and the remains of a structure damaged by fire many years ago, which, subject to planning and technical advice, could potentially be rebuilt or repurposed.



While certain areas of the property would benefit from updating or renovation, the setting, layout and scale of the site offer tremendous scope for multi-family living, tourism projects, or an inspiring riverside lifestyle. With its blend of history, nature, and space, this is a rare opportunity to bring new life to a place with real soul.



Just 15 minutes from Pontivy and 40 minutes from Lorient, Saint-Nicolas-des-Eaux is a postcard-perfect Breton village, popular with walkers, cyclists, artists and holidaymakers alike - known for its vibrant waterfront, summer events, and peaceful atmosphere all year round.
