Chateau in Rennes

Elegant chateau from the 16th and 17th centuries set on 57 hectares of gardens and woods.
This property is situated in a hilly and wooded countryside of the Ille-et-Vilaine. In a quiet location, preserved from views and nuisances, it is also close to services (shops, motorway, TGV train station, hospital).
 
This estate benefits from the fiscal advantages of the protection of historic monuments. The chateau contains a history linked to the relations between Brittany and the kingdom.
With medieval bases, it also has rich Renaissance architectural decorations.
 
The towers and the varied roofs give a lot of charm and elegance to the property.
It is enhanced by a refined environment consisting of terraces, statues of figures from antiquity, large staircases, a chapel with a belfry, a dovecote and outbuildings. The upper terrace consists of a promenade lined with statues of ancient Greek figures.
 
The chateau offers a lovely view over the woods of the property, its lakes and the countryside.
 
It has 17 main rooms including beautiful receptions and 10 bedrooms. It has kept beautiful elements from various periods, including a rare Renaissance lounge.
The structural work on the chateau is generally in good condition, but various points need to be modernised and work is required.
 
Outside, tree-lined paths lead to the chateau, whose facade can be admired in the mirror of water.
The woods have a variety of species. They are monitored under a management plan (tax exemption).
 
The outbuildings offer 2 functional 4-room apartments, garages, stables, kennels, sheds, a well and a tennis court.
 
Bordered by a river spanned by an old stone bridge, this property is a peaceful setting with easy access to amenities in Rennes or Paris.
