Description

A37740EAM56 - This traditional Breton stone longere has been newly renovated and thoughtfully extended to create a lovely new home offering 312m2 of bright and spacious and luminous, versatile living space incorporating 6 bedrooms, 3 en-suite bathrooms, 3 en-suite WC/shower rooms plus guest WC.

This property, with roots tracing back to 17th century, combines traditional charm with modern comfort. Re-imagined for contemporary living, it benefits from air-source heat pumps supplying heating and hot water, double glazing in new wooden frames throughout. The result is a character property with solid, energy-efficient infrastructure - where tradition and functionality meet. The resurrection of this ancient property now fittingly referred to as Manoir Le Grand Christo by its current owners, honouring it’s 17th c origins.

Set within grounds of 9848m2 this property is steeped in history. The trace of the old Baud road still runs through the grounds, with the original toll gate stone hinge still visible - lending weight to the suggestion that the property may have once served as the mairie - a unique and authentic feature. The setting offers space and privacy without isolation, situated in a hamlet. The grounds offer lots of potential to plant ornamental or fruit trees or as grazing for animals. A low enclosed ruin wall with steps up into it would make a magical kitchen garden and orchard. There’s also the option to create a paddock, and the Camors Forest nearby offers direct access to miles of bridal paths.

Located within easy distance of Camors, Lambel and Baud, the property enjoys an enviable position on the edge of the enchanting Camors Forest. Spanning 648 hectares, this magnificent woodland is a haven for walkers, trail cyclists and mushroom foraging - especially seasonal favourites like girolles and ceps in abundance - and for people simply seeking out the calm and communion with nature.

Just a short walk away a popular zip-line adventure park draws visitors from across the region. The on-site licensed cafe is open to all throughout the day and becomes a social hub during the season (April until October), hosting live music, creating a vibrant atmosphere that lingers well into the evening.

Complimenting the area is the charming ‘Napoleon Line’ train service. This heritage rail track runs from April to September, offering scenic journeys in vintage rolling stock through the beautiful lush Blavet Valley.

The town of Camors, within walking distance of the property, has a population of over 3000 and offers a full range of day-to-day amenities, including a town hall, bakery/grocer, butcher/deli, dairy shop, tabac/bar, crêperie, library, post office., beauty/hair salon, pharmacy, medical centre, church and two infant/primary schools.

A 9 minute drive away, the thriving town of Pluvigner has a population of nearly 8000 and continues to grow. The local college (ages 11 to 15) has recently undergone a major upgrade and expansion, reflecting ongoing investment in the community. There is a newly built well equipped media library (médiathèque) adding to the town’s vibrant cultural life. Pluvigner also offers several supermarkets, a DIY store, a huge selection of local shops, boutiques, cafes, restaurants and a lively Saturday market.

The thriving town of Baud is just a 5-minutes drive away and provides all essential amenities: a wide range of shops, several supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and a lively Saturday Market. The cinema screens weekly English language films and a newly built leisure complex features pools and a solarium.

With a population of just over 6000, Baud is a growing town with excellent education options: several primary schools - including Breton language school - two middle schools, with excellent high schools (lycees) in nearby Auray and Vannes, all accessible by school transport.

This property is ideal as a family residence or a holiday retreat, offering tranquility, privacy and immersion in nature, while being perfectly placed for coastal access. The renowned beaches of Carnac and Trinite-Sur-Mer are within an easy drive. Carnac’s calm waters are ideal for families, while Erdeven and Plouharnel are favourites with surfers and kite surfers. Trinité-Sur-Mer, with its bustling marina, is known as Morbihan’s sailing capital.

The vibrant towns of Vannes and Lorient are équidistant yet offer contrasting atmospheres. Vannes, a walled town with beautiful half-timbered buildings and winding streets while Lorient, rebuilt after WWII, is a modern maritime hub. Both offer excellent shopping, dining cultural life and marinas.

High-speed TGV trains run from Auray and reaches Paris in 3 hours, making this an ideal base for a well-connected, balanced lifestyle. Nantes Atlantique Airport offers a full schedule of international flights, including multiple daily flights to the UK, as does Rennes Airport.

LAYOUT

The entrance hall (22m2) features a staircase to the upper floors and a convenient downstairs WC with washbasin. At the rear, there’s a guest bedroom (18m2) with bathroom. An exterior door leads directly from the room-combined with the adjacent utility area, this section could easily be transformed into self-contained quarters for guests, staff or multigenerational living.

From the hallway, you enter the main living area (55m2) a characterful space with exposed beams, perfect for formal entertaining. A striking stone fireplace forms a central feature of the room.

Leading off from the formal living area is a dramatic double-height extension (61m2) flooded with natural light. Featuring a mezzanine level - an ideal site to house the kitchen and create an informal living hub for family life, offering a sense of warmth and openness.

The mezzanine (19m2) offers an ideal workspace - connected to the heart of family life, yet slightly removed from the bustle. Alternatively, it would work just as well as a library and chill-out space.

A staircase from the entrance hall leads to the first floor, where you’ll find three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Bedroom 2 benefits from an en-suite WC washbasin and shower, while bedroom 3 - the main bedroom (26m2) - features a character fireplace, a generous en-suite bathroom and two adjoining annexes ideal for use as dressing rooms or nursery/office.

From the first-floor landing (25m2), a glass external door opens out onto original exterior stone steps - believed to be the property’s historic principle entrance. This charming architectural feature not only adds a sense of history but could provide private access to the upper floors if needed.

A second internal staircase leads to the top floor, where you will find two further bedrooms (16m2), each with its own en-suite WC, washbasin and shower. Large Velux windows fill the space with light and offer lovely views over the surrounding countryside.

THE ANNEX

At the far end of the property is a 28m2 annex, formerly housing a cider press, with front and rear access, and concrete floor currently used as a workshop. The annex has new double glazed doors and window. With natural light from both sides, it presents excellent potential as either studio or craft atelier.

ACCESS & EXTERIOR

The property is approached via a gravel driveway, flanked by the original gateposts - evocative reminders of the home’s long history. A generous gravelled area provides ample parking for several cars.

A PROPERTY OF SCALE, CHARACTER & OPPORTUNITY

This beautiful stone longère offers a rare and exceptional opportunity because of its very generous proportions, and with the essential upgrades already in place - from heating, glazing and insulation achieving a DPE of B (whilst at the same time maintaining the architectural integrity of the building) leaves a clear canvas for new owners to make it their own by the installation of a kitchen and choice of flooring finish for ground floor rooms. All the upper floors have newly installed floorboards.

About Leggett Immobilier, France

La Maison du Chapitre, 24340 La Rochebeaucourt, France

Leggett Immobilier is a family business that was started 20 years ago and founded on the genuine belief that French estate agency could be done better – today this still holds true. Indeed, this belief was validated last year when we were crowned "Best Estate Agency in France" at a prestigious awards ceremony in London.

All of our agents live and work in France and have excellent local knowledge, covering both their area and local property prices. Clients are given a single point of contact who is dedicated to helping them make the right decision and to be by their side throughout the purchase process. Our in-house contracts team are experienced in dealing with local notaires and have overseen the purchase of over €1bn of French property - they will ensure that the sale progresses smoothly and our fully bilingual team will guide you through all legal documentation.

With over 600 agents spread across the country we like to think that we are now the leading international estate agency in France, last year around one in ten of all UK buyers of French property trusted us to help them. However, the company’s size and success has not altered the fact that we are a family business who pride ourselves on professionalism and friendliness.

Local knowledge is invaluable when buying in a foreign country. Leggett provides this knowledge - nearly all of our agents have lived through a move themselves and have been trained to deal with any issue or question that might arise. This training includes a three day, residential, course, further "advanced" training and access to our head office team who keep abreast of all changes in French property law and legislation.

It is this, unique, “hand-holding” approach that has helped build the foundations of our company. No other agency in France takes such care of a client before, during and after a property is purchased.

The system for buying a property in France can be complex but is regarded as being one of the safest in the world – the French like "red tape" but not much surprises us now.

With over 20 years of experience, we have the knowledge to aid with legal matters, help with finance, and even ensure that you have all the essential services connected when you make the move to your new home.

Leggett Immobilier - local knowledge you can trust.
