MORBIHAN, Rohan, Beautifully presented 3 bed detached home, walking distance to shops

This attractive and comfortable home combines the solid advantages of an old stone house with the comfort of modern upgrades, from the heat pump to the double-glazed windows throughout. In summer, the front windows look out on lush trees; in the winter, the house offers canal views of water, walkers, and bike riders.

The house is exceptionally well located. Directly across the street and down the hill is the Nantes à Brest canal and cycle trail, accessible by a public footpath just a few houses up the road. It is just a 5-minute walk to the dentist's office or the market centre of Rohan; 7 minutes to the boulangerie and pharmacy; 10 minutes to the library, medical offices, or supermarket. Rohan also has a taxi service, and the larger towns of Pontivy and Loudéac are each only about 20 minutes away by car.

The main floor offers an entry hall, two living rooms (one was used previously as a bedroom for single-floor living), a dining room opening into a kitchen and a shower room with toilet. The spacious porch attached to the back has an additional sink and a dishwasher and has been set up for a washer and dryer. It offers added storage space as well as a protected interface to the back garden.

Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms one of which has an ensuite shower room and there is also a family shower room and an office. The attic is well insulated, and a two-speed house ventilation system exhausts from the kitchen and bathrooms.

The garage and basement are located directly under the house and can be accessed from within and without. The basement is clean and offers a large and accessible workspace. Additionally, there is off street parking for vehicles in front of the property.

This move-in ready house was remodelled and operated as a cozy Bed et Breakfast by the previous owners. The BetB owners added an efficient heat pump to supply the hot water radiators (throughout ground floor and one upstairs). They also installed electric radiators upstairs as needed, and a pellet stove on the main floor for ambiance and backup.

The house is accessible by stairs to the front door and a side path to the back door, a garage/basement side door, and the back garden. The partially fenced garden offers level areas for gardening and play as well as a sweeping view over rooftops from the top of the hill. The property is perfectly situated for solar panels, and it stretches all the way back to a private, shady tree line just before a farm field.

The sellers retired to Rohan from abroad and will be staying in the area long term, but age and balance issues have dictated moving to a street-level home. They are offering this place at an attractive price and are willing to negotiate on some of the furnishings as well. (6.00 % fees incl. VAT at the buyer's expense.)
