Lovers of nature, peace, and history will immediately fall under the spell of this unique property where time itself seems to stand still. Rich in memory and deeply rooted in Breton legend, the estate is said to have been touched by the presence of Anne of Brittany, whose legacy still resonates within these ancient stone walls.<BR><BR>The property is composed of three separate living spaces, each offering its own character and distinctive ambiance.<BR><BR>The main manor house, dating back to the 15th century, offers approximately 280 sqm of living space.
