House for sale in Saint Meloir Des Bois in Brittany

The countryside is beautiful here, with its tranquil, winding lanes and lush greenery. Perched at the top of the lane is a noble 16th-century manor house, used as a farm in the early 20th century.

In the 1970s, the owning family undertook to restore it to its former glory, passionately renovating this incredible building, carefully selecting materials, and preserving the original architectural features.

The fireplaces are all superb, crafted from very light granite. The one in the reception room is monumental and typical of grand aristocratic reception halls; as the owner said, "You could easily roast an ox in it!" In the bedrooms, the fireplaces are equally impressive, with their massive lintels of very light granite and jambs sculpted with geometric and animal motifs typical of the late medieval and early Renaissance periods.

The property includes: The Manor House and a converted annex, formerly used as a rural gîte, offering over 400 m2 of living space, A large courtyard shared with the neighbouring farm, A garden with views over the Valley, Wooded land with a pond, possibility of buying an additional pond of 6,000 m2 on the other side of the road.
