This lovely lock keepers cottage is in a lovely location by the side of the Nantes-Brest canal and ideal for anglers, hikers and cyclists as the canal system stretches 400k across Brittany from east to west and tow pathed along the route. The canal was instigated by Napolean to avoid the British fleet around the coast and ingeniously utilised existing rivers and lakes to create a varied and very beautiful waterway which is rich in wild life – many tourists get their first glimpse of otters in their natural habitat along the canal.
The cottage is in very good condition and ideal for a holiday cottage or permanent resident and these lock side properties are getting rarer to find. With the property comes 2,500 sq metres of land and during its history there is no record of flooding on the property. The accommodation comprises of a ground floor open kitchen/lounge/diner, lovely old fireplace, bathroom and separate wc, two double size bedrooms on the first floor, electric back up heating and many original features. The property has the benefit of a garage and direct access to the canal side towpath.
