A 19th-century villa with outbuildings and a 1,900-m² garden, less than 100 metres from a white sand beach in the Finistère department - ref 875248
A 19th-century villa with outbuildings and a 1,900-m² garden, less than 100 metres from a white sand beach in the Finistère department.
In Brittany, at the tip of the Iroise Coast, the villa is located in a sought-out coastal town within the Finistère department, less than 100 metres from a white sand beach, while the cliffs of Saint Matthew's Point and the GR34 hiking trails are only a stone's throw away. In addition to a sailing club, the town also includes two primary schools and many shops: a supermarket, bakeries, as well as a very popular weekly green market. As for public transportation, a bus provides service to the city of Brest, where its high-speed rail station connects to Paris in 3.5 hours and its airport, 30 minutes away, boasts a number of national and international destinations.
In need of a full restoration, the rubble stone, L-shaped villa is one of the town's oldest buildings. Built around a courtyard, it has a slate roof, faces northeast and includes two adjacent stone wings, each with their own entrance, which could be separated in order to create two dwellings. With three storeys, including a ground floor, a main floor and a second floor under the eaves, its plaster-coated main façade is cadenced by rectilinear windows, while the back of the house, in exposed rubble stone, has granite window and door surrounds and faces an initial garden that separates the villa from the property's outbuildings. In addition, a large plot of land, partially planted with trees and located behind the stone outbuilding facing the villa, could be used for a real estate project, with an independent entrance already located at one end, whereas two stone annexe buildings, set back from the main dwelling and extending on from the courtyard, could be used as sheds, workshops or storage rooms, as needed.
The VillaWith living spaces, bedrooms, studies and utility rooms, the villa contains thirteen rooms in all.
The east wing
Accessible from the garden and courtyard, the front door opens onto a space divided into two rooms. From here a door communicates with the house's other wing, while a wooden staircase leads to the first and second floors, with two rooms on each side. It should be noted that this wing, which has preserved its original details, is in need of a full restoration.
The north wing
From the courtyard, glass doors open onto a room currently used as a workshop, while its main entrance gives on to an artist's studio. With a staircase that provides access to the two upper floors, where the villa's bedrooms are located, a second door opens onto a living room, bathed in light by windows on each side and heated by a fireplace. From here, a door opens onto the kitchen, where another door communicates with the other wing.The GardenPartially enclosed, it includes a courtyard in front of the house, which gives onto the street, while, behind the house, the garden has its own entrance, which makes it possible to subdivide this parcel of land.The Stone OutbuildingBuilt out of granite rubble stone and topped with a slate roof, it faces the back of the villa and is currently used as a shed for the gardening equipment.
