Luxury Maison de Maître with Gîte & Boutique Hospitality Potential
Trans-la-Forêt, Brittany – Near Mont-Saint-Michel
Set behind a private drive in the peaceful countryside of Trans-la-Forêt, this elegant wisteria-clad Maison de Maître combines the character of a historic French home with the comfort and flexibility needed for modern living. With approximately 7,500 m2 of landscaped gardens, a private pond, an independent gîte and planning permission for three more, it offers both a beautiful home and genuine potential for guest accommodation or a small hospitality business.
The main residence extends to approximately 270 m2 and has been carefully restored, retaining its original architectural features while introducing bespoke oak joinery, quality finishes and underfloor heating throughout the ground floor. With four en-suite bedrooms, the house is equally suited to private family living or welcoming guests.
Entering through the spacious kitchen with sitting area, a wood-burning stove creates a warm and inviting space for everyday life and cosy evenings. Doors lead directly to the rear gardens and terraces. Beyond the kitchen, the main salon and dining room retain the historic charm of the house, centred around a striking fireplace with wood burner and providing a natural gathering space for entertaining.
An original wooden staircase leads to the first-floor landing, serving two generous bedroom suites. The principal bedroom overlooks the landscaped garden and private pond and has a luxurious en-suite bathroom with roll-top bath and separate walk-in shower. A large purpose-built storage wall provides both a useful wardrobe area and an attractive feature. The second bedroom also has built-in storage and an equally well-appointed en-suite with roll-top bath and separate shower.
The second floor, with exposed beams beneath the eaves, provides two further en-suite bedrooms. One has a roll-top bath and separate shower, while the other has a stylish en-suite shower room.
Across the gravelled courtyard is a fully independent, single-level one-bedroom gîte of approximately 72 m2, ready to rent immediately. It comprises a lounge with large stone fireplace and wood burner, kitchen with dining area, luxury bathroom with roll-top bath and walk-in shower, and a bedroom opening directly onto its own private terrace and garden. Underfloor heating and a heat pump provide year-round comfort. The gîte could continue as holiday accommodation, or provide space for extended family or a caretaker.
Three original stone outbuildings complete the courtyard. Planning permission has been granted for their conversion into three additional gîtes - two one-bedroom and one two-bedroom - with initial work already started and a drainage system installed. Depending on your plans, these buildings could alternatively provide studio space, workshops, offices, wellness facilities or areas for creative retreats.
The landscaped gardens are an important part of the property, with a peaceful pond and wooden decking providing a shaded seating area overlooking the water, partly covered by fragrant wisteria. Mature trees offer natural shade throughout the grounds, while the different garden areas create spaces for privacy, relaxation and outdoor dining.
The setting is peaceful, with no close neighbours, yet the property is well placed for exploring the area. Walking trails, cycling routes and nature tourism are all nearby, while Mont-Saint-Michel is approximately 20 km away. Dol-de-Bretagne, Combourg, Pontorson and Bazouges-la-Pérouse offer weekly markets, restaurants, history and cultural attractions.
Accessibility is excellent for both private use and welcoming guests:
• Dol-de-Bretagne tgv station – approx. 18 km, with direct connections to Paris
• Rennes Airport – approx. 65 km, with flights to Paris, London Gatwick and Amsterdam
• Saint-Malo ferry port – approx. 42 km, with crossings to the UK and Channel Islands
• Caen ferry port – approx. 150 km via A84
• Cherbourg ferry port – approx. 165 km
• Easy access to the N176 dual carriageway within 10 minutes’ drive
Village amenities are just 1.5 km away, giving everyday convenience while maintaining the tranquillity of the property.
This is a property with several possibilities: A refined private residence surrounded by established gardens, a home with an immediately operational gîte, or a small boutique hospitality or retreat project with scope to create three further units.
