An 1898 château on 31 hectares in Vannes, France

Posted on Sun, 7 Sep 2025 by KiM

On the borders of Morbihan, very close to Ille-et-Vilaine, stands a majestic castle listed in the supplementary inventory of historical monuments, surrounded by its 31 hectares of land, mainly wooded, (possibility of 45 ha of woods in addition) forming a single estate. Built in 1898, this imposing granite building topped with high slate roofs is inspired by the classical Louis XIII style. It spreads its 2800 m² over three floors, with a full basement. As soon as you enter, a colonnaded vestibule welcomes you, dominated by a majestic carved wooden staircase. Next to it, a smoking room and a series of lounges reveal preserved period decorations, herringbone or patterned parquet floors, and large fireplaces. A bedroom, an office and a small kitchen complete this level. The first floor houses fourteen large bedrooms, ranging from 14 to 42 m², each with its own bathroom or powder room, as well as alcove wardrobes. A large room bathed in light houses a billiard table in perfect condition. On the second floor, accessible by two staircases, large utility rooms and thirteen other bedrooms are deployed. The outbuildings, scattered on either side of the parklands, form a harmonious whole around the stable courtyard and the farmyard, offering a built-up area of approximately 2000 m².
This château is spectacular! Some of the best architectural details I’ve ever seen, and that tile floor in the foyer is to die for. What a huge gem of a home for only €1,530,000 via Barnes.
