Guingamp, Brittany 22200

A grand 19th-century house to be fully renovated on a hill in a quaint town in Brittany. The small road that leads up to the dwelling is not used much. The backdrop is calm and lush. The property stands at an altitude of 125 metres, so it offers an unrivalled view down over the town. It is entirely walled. It includes a grand house and an oratory. A landscaped garden surrounds the house. The house is rectangular. It has a ground floor, a first floor and a second floor. It is flanked with a section that was built later. The oldest section is crowned with a gabled roof with two dormers that have triangular pediments. A timber cornice with modillions underlines the roof. Semicircular-Arched doors and windows are spread along the ground floor. The facade is made of rubble granite. Dressed stone forms the window and door surrounds. The most recent section has five shed dormers that are aligned with the five bays on its ground floor and first floor. At the back of the house, an extension increases the floor area considerably. Many chimney stacks rise up from the roof and add to the dwelling's authentic style.
