Description
Picture yourself waking to the sound of birds in ancient oak trees, morning light filtering through traditional wooden shutters onto exposed stone walls that have stood for generations. This is life in your renovated Brittany longère, a meticulously restored 144-square-meter stone house nestled in the peaceful Morbihan countryside near the historic Blavet River. Here, just minutes from the market town of Baud, you've discovered the authentic France that international buyers dream about—a place where medieval villages coexist with vibrant weekly markets, where Celtic traditions run deep, and where your vacation home becomes a gateway to exploring one of Europe's most culturally rich regions. This isn't just a second home in France; it's your private retreat in Brittany, complete with a separate guest apartment, set on 3,400 square meters of landscaped grounds with complete privacy and no overlooking neighbors. The property combines the romance of traditional Breton architecture with modern comfort, creating the ideal holiday home for families seeking authentic French countryside living with excellent rental income potential.
The main house welcomes you with a light-filled ground floor where contemporary living meets rustic charm. The spacious open-plan living area centers around a working fireplace with closed insert—perfect for cozy evenings after exploring Brittany's dramatic coastline or wandering through nearby medieval towns. The modern fitted kitchen flows seamlessly into the living space, making it ideal for preparing feasts using local ingredients from Baud's weekly market: fresh oysters from the Gulf of Morbihan, artisanal ciders, salt-butter caramels, and organic vegetables from neighboring farms. French doors open directly onto your private terrace, where outdoor dining becomes a daily ritual throughout Brittany's mild seasons, and your mature garden provides complete seclusion—a rare luxury that enhances this property's appeal as a vacation home in France.
Upstairs, the thoughtful layout dedicates the entire first floor to two generous bedrooms connected by a wide landing that could serve as a reading nook or children's play area. The contemporary bathroom with separate WC and adjacent dressing room provides the modern comfort international buyers expect while maintaining the home's authentic character. Ascend to the top floor and discover the master suite—a private sanctuary occupying the entire second level. This retreat features integrated dressing space and an en-suite bathroom with spa bath, creating a hotel-quality experience in your own Brittany holiday home. The careful renovation preserves original architectural elements while incorporating amenities that make this property immediately livable as a vacation home or viable as a high-end rental property.
The independent two-room apartment, accessed separately from the main house, transforms this property from a simple vacation home into a revenue-generating asset or multigenerational holiday retreat. This 30-square-meter space features its own living area with open kitchen, spacious bathroom with WC, and an upstairs bedroom under the eaves—character-filled accommodation that guests adore. International owners use this flexible space in multiple ways: generating rental income while the main house remains private, housing extended family during summer gatherings, or accommodating property managers and caretakers. This versatility significantly enhances the property's investment value in Brittany's growing vacation rental market, where authentic countryside properties command premium nightly rates from tourists seeking experiences beyond typical coastal resorts.
Practical considerations further distinguish this second home in Brittany. The attached 20-square-meter boiler room and enclosed 20-square-meter garage provide essential storage for bicycles, outdoor equipment, and all the gear that makes French countryside living so rewarding. The separate 60-square-meter enclosed metal hangar offers workshop space, additional storage, or potential for conversion into further guest accommodation subject to planning permission—an attractive feature for buyers envisioning long-term development. The 3,400-square-meter grounds, already beautifully landscaped with mature trees, offer space for vegetable gardens, children's play areas, or even a future swimming pool, all without any overlooking from neighbors. This combination of privacy, space, and auxiliary buildings is increasingly rare in renovated Brittany properties at this price point.
Baud positions you perfectly for exploring Brittany's diverse attractions while maintaining peaceful countryside seclusion. This authentic Breton town, with its weekly market, bakeries, cafes, and essential services, sits at the cultural heart of Morbihan. The legendary Blavet River, just minutes away, offers kayaking, fishing, and towpath cycling through landscapes that inspired Breton artists for centuries. Drive twenty-five minutes south to reach the Gulf of Morbihan, where island-hopping, sailing, and coastal walks reveal why this micro-sea is called one of the world's most beautiful bays. The medieval city of Vannes, thirty minutes away, provides shopping, restaurants, and year-round cultural events, while maintaining ferry connections to Belle-Île and other Atlantic islands.
Brittany's calendar fills with experiences that make vacation home ownership here so rewarding. Summer brings Celtic music festivals—the Festival Interceltique de Lorient draws half a million visitors annually—while autumn harvest festivals celebrate cider-making and local gastronomy. Spring reveals Brittany's famous pink granite coastline at its most vibrant, with wildflowers blanketing clifftops and comfortable temperatures ideal for hiking the GR34 coastal path. Winter transforms the region into a peaceful retreat where cozy fireside evenings, regional oyster festivals, and uncrowded medieval towns offer a different but equally compelling experience. The mild maritime climate, moderated by the Gulf Stream, means comfortable year-round usage—rare for vacation homes at northern European latitudes.
Accessibility makes this Brittany vacation home practical for international owners. Lorient airport, forty minutes away, offers seasonal flights to UK cities, while year-round connections through Nantes airport (90 minutes) or Rennes (75 minutes) link to major European hubs. The high-speed TGV from Paris reaches Auray station in under three hours, making weekend escapes feasible from the French capital. For those driving from UK ferry ports, the property sits three hours from Roscoff or Saint-Malo, with excellent motorway connections. This accessibility, combined with Brittany's status as France's second-most-visited region, underpins strong rental demand that helps offset ownership costs.
The renovation quality deserves emphasis—this is a move-in ready vacation home requiring no immediate investment beyond furnishing to your taste. Recent comprehensive updates mean you can begin enjoying your French countryside lifestyle immediately, whether for personal use or placing the property into the lucrative Brittany vacation rental market. Properties of this type, authentically renovated with modern systems, typically achieve €800-1,200 weekly rental rates during high season, with steady bookings during shoulder periods from visitors seeking authentic rural France experiences. The independent apartment allows flexible rental strategies: offer the entire property for large groups, rent apartments separately for steady income, or keep one for personal use while monetizing the other.
