A 19th-century family dwelling, its immense terraced garden and wooded area on 1.5 hectares in the middle of a town within the Pays de Lorient urban area. The property consists of a freestanding house built in the 1830s, which faces the town to the north and 1.5 hectares of gardens and forest in the back, sheltered from view. Access to the back of the property, where an enclosed ornamental terraced garden was created, is possible via an entrance on either side of the house: a pedestrian door on one side and a carriage entrance on the other, the latter of which opens onto a covered porch topped with an attic, which is used for storage, while the property also has a third entrance, which leads directly to the garage. Partially built over the site of a 17th-century timber-framed house, the vestiges of its foundations still visible in the cellar, the current three-storey rectangular dwelling was constructed out of granite rubble stone with ashlar granite stone quoins and cornices over a basement level. As for the house's main façade, classically and symmetrically arranged with two horizontal and five vertical rows of windows and doors, on the ground floor, two windows flank either side of the front door with its glazed fanlight, while five windows punctuate the first floor under a hipped roof cadenced by three dormer windows crowned with arched pediments. As for the back of the house, it was noticeably reconfigured in the 20th century with a few modifications to the windows as well as the back side of the roof, where a series of dormer windows were added in order to provide abundant sunlight for the second floor partially built underneath the house's eaves.
