Superb Character House, Rural Sector

Here we have a spacious character house, adjoining other properties, close to the centre of La Cheze in rural Brittany.

This townhouse, full of character, is a former servants' property of the old Chateau de Rohan. It is tucked away on a side street within a short walking distance of the village centre with its amenities and its park with a lake. It features the original spiral, wooden staircase and large ceiling beams evident in the kitchen.

Smartly decorated and maintained and with a good-sized, south-facing, private terrace to the rear with a garden leading down to the riverside, it is ready to move into and would serve equally well as a permanent home or holiday home.

THE ACCOMMODATION:

The entrance hall with its tiled floor gives access to the downstairs accommodation, includes a fitted cloak cupboard and passes all the way through to the south-facing terrace and garden to the rear.

LOUNGE / DINING ROOM (approx 23.5m2) - with wallpaper to the walls, a wood-burning fire within a red-brick surround, a parquet floor and a small corner storage cupboard. There is an access door to the rear sun terrace.

FITTED KITCHEN (approx 13.4m2) - large enough to serve as a dining kitchen and attractively fitted in wood, it offers a four-hob (three gas, one electric) cooker, an extractor fan, an electric oven, a dishwasher, a double sink and a separate unit with a worktop and storage cupboards below. There is also the plumbing in place for a washing machine and an access door to the outside terrace.

SHOWER ROOM (approx 3.6m2) - with a small, separate ante-room including fitted cupboards.

SEPARATE WC

The house's turret contains the original wide, spiral staircase in wood.

UPSTAIRS ACCOMMODATION:

A noticeable feature of the upstairs accommodation is the original wood floor which gives the impression of being very solid and doesn't squeak! The landing area is fairly spacious.

BEDROOM 1 (approx 12.5m2) - well-maintained with wallpaper to the walls and coving to the ceiling.

BEDROOM 2 (approx 10.2m2) - again, well-maintained with wallpaper to the walls and includes fitted wardrobes.

BEDROOM 3 (approx 11.9m2) - this bedroom is accessed through a separate ante-room which would likely serve as an office or a dressing room. The bedroom is decorated with wallpaper to the walls.

BATHROOM & WC (approx 6m2) - featuring a bath with over-bath shower and tile surround, a wash basin with vanity unit and a mirror and a WC.

The spiral staircase continues to the attic of approximately 32m2 which is boarded out and offers the possibility of conversion to create further bedroom accommodation.

OUTSIDE:

The large, south-facing terrace in concrete is quite private, includes a permanent barbecue and overlooks the garden. The garden is partly lawned and partly used for vegetable cultivation and also includes apple, peach, pear and apricot trees and a garden shed of around 9m2.

A separate small store room attached to the house includes a sink and has a floor area of around 2.3m2.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

The house was re-roofed in 2008 and a satellite dish is installed.

The good-sized town of Loudeac is 10km / 6 miles away.

The department of Cotes d'Armor is the northern most department in the Region of Brittany, with the English Channel to the north, Ille-et-Vilaine to the east, Morbihan to the south and Finistere to the west it is a sunshine gem.

The picturesque Émeraude Coast looks north to the English Channel and is packed with charming seaside resorts and old fishing villages. Most of the towns of the interior were founded in the Middle Ages. The department's southern half is crossed by the Noires Mountains that run west to east with rivers emptying to the south into the Bay of Biscay and to the north into the Channel.

Along the coast, fishing was once important but is now secondary to the cultivation of fruit, oats, potatoes and wheat and of course tourism.
