A second 590 sq m (6,353 sq ft) building, a former farmhouse with a long, L-shaped extension, which housed a unique museum for almost 40 years. This multi-purpose space is wheelchair accessible and includes: on the ground floor: a 100 sq m reception room with paved flooring and a fireplace, restrooms, and 8 interconnected rooms; upstairs: 3 reception rooms, a kitchen, an office, an attic, and a 3-bedroom apartment requiring renovation, comprising an office, an open-plan kitchen/living room, a shower room, and a separate toilet. Change of use to residential is permitted for the entire building.

A THIRD BUILDING, constructed of stone, measuring 160 sq m over two levels, includes on the garden level: a 90 sq m reception room and restrooms; upstairs: a 60 sq m reception room. This third building extends into a large, open-sided covered courtyard of 180 sq m with a slate roof.

The entire property is protected by a video surveillance system with an alarm.

Formerly used as a museum, this property is classified as a Category 5 public access building (ERP) with accessibility for people with reduced mobility (PRM).

Location: The wooded hiking trails bordering the property lead, among other sites, to the iconic 15th-century Sainte Barbe Chapel – 40,000 visitors per year – (a 10-minute walk along a paved path). Built on a hillside overlooking the Ellé Valley, its banks are ideal for relaxing walks and salmon fishing.

By car:
The shops of Le Faouët, its famous 16th-century listed market hall, and its renowned painters’ museum are 3 minutes away (15 minutes on foot via a hiking trail).
The Lorient-Roscoff road (departmental road) is 4 minutes away.
Lorient and its coastline are 35 minutes away.
Vannes is 1 hour away.

The town of Le Faouët is a must-see tourist destination in the Pays du Roi Morvan region, with its painters’ museum (a listed “Musée de France”), its 16th-century market hall, and its two 15th-century chapels (Sainte Barbe and Saint Fiacre), as well as its six marked hiking trails, among the most popular in the Pays du Roi Morvan.

This area appeals to those who enjoy ecotourism or slow tourism. Tourists appreciate the opportunity to disconnect thanks to the natural beauty (rivers, valleys, forests) and the built heritage (churches, chapels, museum). The central Brittany location is highly desirable as it allows easy access to other tourist destinations in the region, without suffering from the overcrowding of the coastline in the height of summer.
