Castle Vannes (56)

At the edge of Morbihan, close to Ille-et-Vilaine, stands a majestic château listed on the supplementary inventory of historic monuments, surrounded by its 31 hectares of land, mainly wooded, with the possibility of an additional 45 hectares of woodland, forming a single, contiguous estate.
Built in 1898, this imposing granite structure with its high slate roofs is inspired by the classic Louis XIII style. It spans 2800 m² across three levels, with a full basement. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a superb colonnaded vestibule, dominated by a grand staircase with sculpted wooden banisters. Adjacent to it, a smoking room and a series of salons reveal preserved period decor, with chevron or patterned parquet floors and large fireplaces. These salons, facing southwest, benefit from beautiful natural light and ceiling heights that give each room perfect proportions. A bedroom, an office, and a small kitchen complete this level.
The first floor houses fourteen spacious bedrooms, ranging from 14 to 42 m², each with its own bathroom or washroom and alcove closets. A large, bright room here features a billiard table in perfect condition.
On the second floor, accessible by two staircases, large service rooms and thirteen more bedrooms unfold. From here, the views over the gently rolling countryside are breathtaking, offering an exceptional panorama of a lawn parterre framed by 16th-century turrets and surrounded by dry moats.
The park, covering approximately 3 hectares, combines vast pastures with an English-style vista bordered by magnificent mature trees, leading to the 31 hectares of adjoining woods, crossed by wide avenues ending in elegant old gates.
The outbuildings, scattered on either side of the park, form a harmonious ensemble around the stable yard and the lower courtyard, offering a built area of approximately 2000 m².
This estate, preserved in its original state, awaits modernization work to restore its former glory and continue its history.
