Stunning country home, C18th longère with indoor pool, equestrian facilities and 1.7H between Rennes & Nantes
It's hard to convey just how sublime this property is in words, it is so very, very charming and well thought out. Set in approximately 17,000 m² of grounds between Rennes and Nantes, this charming 18th-century Breton longère combines period character with modern comfort. Offering around 290 m² of living space, the property features spacious reception rooms, 6 bedrooms, an impressive indoor heated swimming pool with sauna, and excellent equestrian facilities, including a 20 x 40 m riding arena, two horse boxes, a paddock and a well. With 6 bedrooms, it is equally suited as a family home or an income-generating property with 5 of the bedrooms being in the second wing. And just as an extra plus, the property has a private track leading to the banks of the River Vilaine.
Nestled in the countryside between Rennes and Nantes, yet within easy reach of a thriving town offering schools, shops and everyday amenities, this delightful 18th-century longère sits in approximately 17,000 m² (4.2 acres) of land. A nearby railway station provides convenient access to Rennes, making this an ideal rural retreat with excellent transport links.
The original part of the house welcomes you into a characterful 36 m² dining room, complete with an authentic period fireplace. This leads through to a fully fitted and equipped kitchen - extremely stylish yet in keeping with the general charm of the property and complemented by a practical utility room.
From the dining room, three steps lead into a magnificent 42 m² cathedral-style living room, flooded with natural light thanks to its large windows and French doors opening directly onto the gardens. The mezzanine gallery above houses an office and is just beautifully done - it has to be seen.
A staircase leads to a private first-floor suite comprising that spacious mezzanine landing with office area, a generous 30 m² bedroom, dressing room, en-suite shower room and WC.
Comfort is ensured throughout the seasons thanks to a heat pump installed in 2023. That's background heat and for ambience there are wood burners.
The other side of the property is dedicated to relaxation, leisure and accommodating your guests. Spanning over 100 m², it houses an impressive heated indoor swimming pool measuring 10 x 5 metres, with a depth ranging from 1.30 m to 2.20 m. Surrounded by large glazed doors opening onto the garden, the pool area also benefits from a plant room with heat pump, automatic pH and chlorine regulation, a dehumidification system, and recently replaced filtration equipment. A walk-in shower, separate WC and traditional sauna complete this superb wellness space.
Above the pool area are four further bedrooms, three of which measure over 13 m², while the principal bedroom exceeds 25 m². This floor also includes a family bathroom and separate WC.
Outside, the property is equally impressive. The landscaped grounds include a double garage, wood store, well and excellent equestrian facilities comprising a 20 x 40 metre riding arena, two horse boxes and a paddock, making it ideal for hobby equestrians.
Combining authentic Breton charm, generous living accommodation, outstanding leisure facilities and excellent equestrian amenities, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity for those seeking a peaceful country lifestyle, an equestrian home or a property with tourism potential, all within easy reach of Rennes and Nantes.
