Sally Pitcher, Independent Agent, says: | | A wonderful opportunity to buy a well designed property in an unbeatable location. Set within 4 hectares of terrain, including your very own forest, this property allows you to cut yourself off from the world, whilst remaining within the Nantes commuter belt. | On approach, you feel as though you entering a nature reserve. There’s more chance of bumping into deer than another human being in this little oasis of calm. The long track surrounded by huge pines leads you to a striking building constructed of wood and brick. The property is split-level, and a positive labyrinth of unusual rooms, all of which take advantage of the amazing views across the land and the valley below.
There are 4 bedrooms, a bathroom with shower attachment, sitting room, dining room and kitchen. The sitting room leads onto a conservatory, again with a breathtaking outlook. On the other side of the house there is a terrace, so you can follow the sun around all day long. Alongside the terrace, there is a large store, which houses the boiler, utility area, and also acts as a larder. This house was designed to work with nature, and throughout, the indoors and outdoors merge effortlessly, as light floods through every opening. A very unusual property, it is full of quirky features, for example, its unusually shaped windows. With a powerful woodburner in the sitting room, which heats the entire house, you will never need to pay for heating again – there is a lifelong supply in the garden!
This is a very unusual opportunity, which would suit anyone wishing to explore a self-sufficient lifestyle, perhaps branching out into small-scale farming. If looking for the ideal location for a business venture, think of what could be done with these grounds. As well as the forest, part of the grounds include a huge field.
The surrounding area has a smattering of market towns full of character, which are popular with tourists. The nearest village is just 2km away. This is a popular investment area, partly due to its proximity to Nantes. This region enjoys a warmer climate than the North coast of Brittany & Normandy. It offers a dramatic, rugged coastline within an hour’s drive, long sandy beaches; both tourist hot spots and secluded bays, plus the inland delights of its many pretty villages. Sailing, golf,and equestrian sports are available in the local area.
Western Loire is located far enough away from the UK to really feel ‘abroad’ but is close enough to offer the security of knowing family & friends are not too far away at all. Possibly the best served area of France for travel links. This is one of the few areas accessible via ferry or airplane. You will be able to access your home in Loire-Atlantique by air from North & South England, Wales & Ireland via budget airlines. Air Travel is possible from Nantes – Dublin, East Midlands, Stansted, Bournemouth, Shannon. Flights from Brest – Luton, Manchester, Exeter, Birmingham, Southampton. Flights from Rennes – Belfast, Exeter, Manchester, Southampton, Edinburgh. By Sea: Plymouth – Roscoff, Poole – Cherbourg, Portsmouth - Cherbourg, Caen & St. Malo, Dover – Calais, Portsmouth – Le Havre. Rail links are also excellent. The TGV runs from Nantes, Rennes & Redon to Paris, and from there to the UK.
