Property Description

Finistère: Near Scrignac. Spacious 6 Bed Family House with Independent Annexe and 3,880 m² of Landscaped Garden, 30 mins from the Coast.

Set in peaceful countryside just outside the charming town of Scrignac, on the northern slopes of the Monts d'Arrée and only thirty minutes from the sandy beaches of the north Finistère coast, this substantial family home offers something increasingly hard to find in central Brittany: generous accommodation that is ready to move into. With 197 m² of living space, five bedrooms in the main house and a fully independent annexe alongside, it is equally suited to permanent family living or a spacious holiday home. It is the sort of property that makes the decision to move to Brittany feel easy.
Arranged over two floors and offering eleven rooms in total, the house has been lovingly cared for by its current owners, and it shows in every room. Beneath its traditional slate roof, full of Breton character, it has all the presence you hope for from a country house in Finistère. Heating is by heat pump, and the property achieves an energy rating of C. Anyone who has viewed older stone properties in this part of Finistère will appreciate how rare that is, and what it means for comfort and bills through a Breton winter. Here you can simply settle in and enjoy the house from the first day.
Attached to the main house and served by its own entrance, the independent annexe currently offers one bedroom and can be opened up to three. It lends itself beautifully to accommodating visiting family and guests in complete privacy, or to a generous home office or studio well away from the household. Friends will want to stay longer than they planned.
Outside is where this property truly wins hearts. The fully enclosed grounds extend to 3,880 m² of established, beautifully planted gardens, including hydrangeas, fruit trees and mature trees, with a beautiful pond at their centre where fish glide beneath the surface and the whole family will find themselves lingering. And then there are the roses: no fewer than forty-eight rose bushes, planted and tended over many years, which turn the garden into something quite extraordinary from early summer onwards. The house benefits from terracing on both sides, one facing east and one west, giving you a sheltered spot to take breakfast in the morning sun and a generous west-facing terrace that holds the light through to the end of the long summer evenings.
The location combines the very best of inland and coastal Finistère. The Monts d'Arrée, the Cragou nature reserve and the forest of Huelgoat are all close by, offering some of the finest walking and riding country in the region, while an afternoon at the beach is an easy half hour away. Scrignac itself has a primary school, a post office and a bus service, with a pharmacy and medical services at Guerlesquin just minutes away. Morlaix, some thirty minutes by road, provides larger supermarkets, a hospital and a direct TGV to Paris. Roscoff, with its ferry links to Plymouth and Cork, and Brest airport are both within the hour.
A rare opportunity to acquire a spacious, energy-efficient family home with independent accommodation and a garden to fall in love with, in a beautiful and well-connected corner of Finistère. Get in touch to book a viewing. We would be delighted to show you around.
