Property Description
5 minutes from the sea, south-facing, renovated stone house with 4 beds / 4 baths and 3 acres of land where the views stretch down to the sandy beaches and rugged cliffs of the Bay of Douarnenez. There is also a workshop/studio and a large hangar, ideal for storing cars or a boat. The house is in a lovely rural position, but with excellent access to the amenities at Saint Nic.
The house has been fully renovated and has a C-category DPE rating. The windows are double-glazed, the central heating is oil-fired, but the wood-burning stoves also do a great job of heating the main living areas. The drainage is to a septic tank, which conforms to current regulations. There is a total 254m2 habitable space. The two separate stair cases to the bedrooms means the layout would lend itself to a chambres-d’hotes arrangement, but it is an equally comfortable family home with an added element of space and privacy for visiting guests. Here’s the current layout:

Outside:
A large gravelled driveway the front of the property has plenty of space for parking, but opposite the house there is an open hangar that can house several cars, a motor home or a boat. There is also a closed section of the outbuilding that houses a workshop, an artist’s studio and a utility room.
There is also a detached traditional longere that would be ideal for housing animals or could be renovated into additional accommodation (subject to necessary planning permissions.)
The french doors lead to a small patio area, the perfect spot for dining al fresco. There is also an apple orchard. Beyond this, the land extends to a large flat paddock that has lovely sea views. This land would be ideal for horses, or perhaps to generate an income from glampers (again, this would be subject to necessary permissions from the authorities). The total plot size is 1.2 hectares, a shade under 3 acres.
