Trégrom, Brittany 22420

A 17th-century house with outbuildings and almost 10 hectares of meadows and woods, nestled in the River Lguer valley in Brittany. From the village, a country lane leads gently down through countryside to the banks of the River Lguer. The property's grounds cover almost 10 hectares and lie at the end of a lane. The house and outbuildings are arranged in a large L-shape. The main edifice is rectangular and crowned with a gabled slate roof. Two chimney stacks - one at each gable end - rise up from the roof, making the whole structure seem even bigger. A vine climbs up the south-facing facade, which is made of beautiful granite stonework. The window and door surrounds are made of ashlar. The ground-floor windows are fitted with shutters that are painted blue. The entrance door stands beneath a porch with open sides that let natural light into the interior. Behind the dwelling, there is a henhouse, a greenhouse, a few lightweight structures and a lean-to used to store equipment and hay for horses. On the other side of the road, there is a small stone storehouse and a well with water. The grounds are made up of lush meadows and young woods. The River Frout - a tributary that runs into the River Lguer - flows through these woods. The property enjoys absolute privacy and calm. The neighbouring dwellings are further uphill, near the local village. At the edge of the grounds, a Gallo-Roman bridge bears witness to the area's rich past. And 300 metres away, a sandy river beach can be enjoyed for swimming.
