Le Mene Cotes-d'Armor, Brittany
€225,000  |   Ref: 9623A

This 18th Century stone townhouse has a range of shops, restaurants, boulangeries and bars on the doorstep and also has a lovely garden, courtyard and garage. The property is currently successfully run as a B&B, so if you are looking for a ‘turn-key’ business, this would definitely fit the bill.  Equally, the property would be a very comfortable family home with lots to explore in the local area and just 30 mins from the coast.

There is so much to get out and explore in this part of Brittany.  Many hiking routes and cycle paths that ramble through the beautiful local countryside lead you, rather conveniently, to a number of excellent restaurants.  The difficult part is deciding which direction to go in!

This property is situated in a very pretty town and you can just walk out the door to pick up the morning bread and pastries.  There is also a good selection of shops, restaurants and a bar all within walking distance.  The current owners have established a very successful B&B business with guests visiting all year round.  If you are looking for a business you can take on and hit the ground running, this would definitely be a contender.  However, the lay out would work equally well as a very comfortable and spacious family home with plenty of room for visiting friends and family. 

The accommodation is arranged over 3 floors and covers an area of 185m2.  Here’s the layout:

Ground floor

Sitting room with stone fireplace & wood-burning stove
Open plan kitchen / dining room with wood-burning stove
Pantry
Utility room
WC

First floor

Bedroom 1 with en suite bathroom
Bedroom 2 with en suite bathroom
Two living areas / additional bedrooms

The property has been well renovated and has double-glazing throughout.  In addition to the two wood-burning stoves, the heating is via electric radiators.

Outside

The garden is a manageable size and has lovely views across the surrounding countryside.  The terrace has plenty of space for a large table and chairs and is a real sun trap.  Relaxing watching the goldfish in the pond is always enjoyed by visiting guests.  The garage has generous proportions and there is plenty of space for a workshop area as well as a vehicle.  Additional parking is plentiful and well-organised on the street by the property.

Location:

Away from the crowds on the southern coast, this area of Brittany is beautiful, tranquil and there is plenty to explore.  However, the beach is just 30 mins away and ideal for a day trip.  Towns and villages in the area that are well worth exploring or heading for on a supply run might include Moncontour, Saint-Brieuc, Loudéac and Dinan.  The ferry port at St Malo is 1hr 15 mins away.
