A bourgeois house with preserved charm

In the heart of a quiet street in the center of Saint-Pol-de-Léon, this elegant bourgeois house, built in 1928, embodies a lifestyle that blends old-world charm with practical everyday living. Just steps from shops, schools, and services, everything is within walking distance, including Sainte-Anne beach, less than two kilometers away. A peaceful and central address, where the elegance of yesteryear harmonizes with modern conveniences. Behind its wrought-iron gate, the house stands gracefully. Its balanced facade, punctuated with brick and accentuated by climbing plants, creates a reassuring and timeless silhouette. Outside, a landscaped garden envelops the house. At the front, a gravel courtyard provides a structured setting; at the rear, the atmosphere becomes more verdant and intimate, in a garden with ideal sun exposure. Two terraces, accessible from inside, extend the living spaces: one at ground level facing the greenery, the other raised for enjoying meals or sunbathing in complete privacy. In the heart of the city, this preserved landscaped haven becomes a perfect retreat for relaxation or sharing simple moments. Access is via a stone porch overlooking the entrance courtyard, emphasizing the property’s elegance. Beyond the door, a through hall leads to the staircase and opens onto the garden. The cement tile floor, high ceilings, and central rose window lend an authentic ambiance to this first impression. All the rooms boast ceilings over 2.80 meters high, enhancing the sense of space and the grandeur of the proportions. To the left, the living room unfolds in a beautiful, light-filled space. The original parquet flooring creates a warm atmosphere, while two period fireplaces evoke the original refinement. To the right, the dining room continues the elegance of the reception rooms. Parquet flooring and a black marble fireplace create an inviting space for shared meals. Extending from the kitchen, the recently renovated space perfectly complements the house’s style. Its elongated shape allows for easy movement and direct access to the terraces. Clean lines, integrated storage, and countertops harmonize with the antique checkerboard flooring, combining functionality and character. A separate WC completes this level. An elegant staircase leads to the upper floor. Its openwork banister and contrasting colors frame a light-filled landing. Two bedrooms are located here: the first, with its warm ambiance and fireplace; the second, larger, forms a suite with an adjoining dressing room. The original parquet flooring and the generous proportions contribute to the overall elegance. The spacious, contemporary bathroom plays with contrasts: a walk-in shower behind a glass partition and a mineral finish. A laundry room and a separate WC complete this floor. The top floor, formerly an attic, has been redesigned and renovated. Two bright bedrooms have been created, featuring exposed beams, high ceilings, and individual access to the central bathroom. In a bohemian chic style, this bathroom includes an alcove bathtub, a double vanity on an antique wooden countertop, a large full-width mirror, and a built-in toilet. A spacious, detached 65 sq m garage completes the property: a rare asset in the town center, offering parking, a workshop, or storage space. Located 5 minutes from Roscoff, 10 minutes from the beaches of Santec, and 20 minutes from Morlaix, this unique home combines the charm of a pedestrian-friendly lifestyle with the immediate proximity of one of the most beautiful coastlines in Finistère. The asking price, including agency fees, is EUR578,000. ENERGY RATING: D / CLIMATE RATING: D
