Belle-Isle-En-Terre, Cotes-D'armor

Property Description

This wonderful former presbytery could make the perfect home-and-income property. It would be ideal as a B&B being in the town, within walking distance of shops and restaurants, and with 8 bedrooms, 4 of which need refurbishment, it certainly has the space. It comes with just under half an acre of walled garden.

The present owners who have lived there since 1993, have developed the first two floors. On the ground floor, they have created a kitchen, a rear kitchen, a large sitting/dining room with bifold doors to separate the two rooms if required, access to a superb sun terrace, a  large and impressive hallway with rear access and staircases to the basement and first floor. 

On the first floor there are 4 bedrooms, one currently used as a study, and 2 bathrooms - one is an en suite bathroom and the second is a ‘Jack and Jill’ bathroom. There is a staircase to the second floor where there are a further 4 bedrooms which need renovation and another room which could be converted into a bathroom. The basement is split into various areas including a utility area with a silo for the fuel for the recently installed pellet burner, the boiler room and wine cellar. 

Outside there is an outbuilding part of which is used as a studio the other part for storage. The house is surrounded by a walled garden with lawns, shrubs, trees and a sun terrace. There is a gated entrance and a rear entrance with a gravelled courtyard. The property has the benefit of double glazing and is connected to mains drainage.

The house is in the town of Belle-Isle-en-Terre which has bars, restaurants, a bank, Post Office, a small supermarket and a pretty river running through the town.
