19TH-CENTURY MASTERPIECE LISTED AS A HISTORIC MONUMENT BETWEEN Rennes AND Vannes - 50 km from Vannes - Extraordinary 19th-century chateau with fantastic neo-Renaissance granite architecture - 30 hectares - Numerous outbuildings - Stud farm - Offered for sale for the first time in its history - Optional purchase of an additional 40 hectares of woodland - Between Rennes and Vannes, Morbihan, Brittany.
Set within a sumptuous romantic park enjoying uninterrupted south-facing views over the beautiful Morbihan countryside, this spectacular chateau completed in 1898 — one of the masterpieces of late 19th-century Brittany — stands upon a medieval site from which survive dry moats and three remarkable 16th-century pavilions. Offered for sale for the first time in its history, the property survives in a remarkable state of authenticity. Its particularly rich architecture, inspired by the Renaissance, is exceptional for the quality of its execution entirely in finely cut granite ashlar of differing colours and textures. It is unquestionably one of the finest and best-constructed chateaux of its period in Brittany. The building follows a rectangular plan with a central corps de logis flanked by two projecting corner pavilions, one of which contains the superb two-storey palatine chapel. Variations in ground levels between the façades further enhance the monumentality of the composition: the north-east façade overlooking the park provides direct access to the ground floor beneath a grand cast-iron canopy, while the south-east façade rises above a monumental basement housing a vast lower hall and service areas. The façades display an extraordinarily rich architectural vocabulary including rustication, string courses, petrifications, powerful quoins, cartouches, strapwork, shells, mouldings, projecting voussoirs, dormer windows, pediments, and monumental chimney stacks. The whole forms a symphony of granite in sumptuous shades of grey, ochre and black, animated by contrasting textures ranging from rustic rustication to smooth and bush-hammered surfaces. Learned architectural quotations subtly disrupt the symmetry of the façades: on one side, two large stained-glass windows — one rose-shaped, the other semi-circular and flanked by statues in the round of Louis IX of France and his wife Margaret of Provence; on the opposite side, a highly sophisticated échauguette turret.
