House for Sale in Brittany

A FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE this is a delightful detached house, a French Countryside Longere style property in a quiet rural hamlet situated between La Trinite-Porhoet and Meneac but actually in the commune of Mohon.

Here is a nice bit of background to this beautiful property in the words of the owner...

" Having arrived in Morbihan, Brittany for a friends anniversary party, we decided to check out the local property market. It was love at first sight when we first came upon our house, it was nestling within its own private enclosed garden, in a tranquil hamlet surrounded by beautiful countryside; what more could anyone want !

It was also a perfectly safe environment for our animals "Birman Cats" that we used to breed and exhibit in the UK, a hobby we wanted to continue, not to mention 2 Standard poodles. 

We have the close proximity of all local amienities, with easy access to airports, Ferries, motorways, to explore "La Belle France"  

Through our friends and neighbours we were introduced to the French way of life, it is rather laid back, always making new friends especially when joining French Classes, a good way to intergrate, we also made many French friends at Cat exhibitions, although we no longer exhibit now, but keep in touch.

There is always help on hand with the Local Marie with all local activities.

Our home was completely renovated, taking 18 months with the help of a French architect and artisans, it now has a charm all of its own, and will not disappoint anyone who walks through its doors, or enters the beautiful, tranquil garden, with its various fruit trees and veg garden, it is a delight and privilege to be living here, you need never be alone."

Now the house is for sale and we would be delighted to show you it anytime.

I would never have found my perfect French home without you

Dear Sharon,

Thank you for all your help. I would never have found my perfect French home without you! will definitely be recommending your services to others 100%.

Thanks, Helen.

That's nice, thanks Helen. Matching our clients to their perfect home in France is our aim, sometimes it is quick and other times the perfect house is more difficult to track down! but track them down we do and we are so happy for Helen and wish her many happy years to come in her House in rural Normandy.

And as several of our clients say "Follow your heart and make the move"!

Thank You Cle France

Very impressed with the professionalism of your agents

Hi Sharon, 

We had a very busy time! It worked very well and we saw lovely properties. 

We've just got home so will probably do a "reckie" on them tomorrow and let you know.

We saw 10 in 2 days, so you can imagine we're still abit confused to what house was which but we know what we don't want so I'll let you know the short list

I have to say everything went to plan and we were very impressed with the professionalism of your agents.

I'll be in touch Asap and thank you for your help

Thanks, C.

Wow 10 viewings in 2 days, that is a busy viewing schedule and no wonder one merges into the other but that is the only way to find the right property - go viewing to France and see for yourself as many as you can fit in, the right French property for sale is out there for you...

And as several of our clients say "Follow your heart and make the move"!

Thank You Cle France

Follow your heart and make the move

Email from client on 3rd November 2015

Evening David,

Well since I last "spoke to you back in January - our lives have completely changed. From April until August things were manic and the way it worked, the office closed where I worked at the end of July and we sold our house in the UK  on the 31st July too!! All very crazy but exciting too. We were homeless in the UK for 2 days, so had to rough it in a hotel then we came over on the 3rd August full time. We had hired a van mid July and brought over the bulk of the furniture, brought more with us when we came over and the last few bits are in a storage unit for now in the UK.

Mixing in with French neighbours - 

We have now been here three months and we are loving every minute. We are getting on well with our French neighbours and have had aperitifs or coffee with them and returned the favour. It is helping our French immensely and we love the fact it is all French - we are in France and want to speak French and the people really do warm to you. Every Wednesday we have a lady who comes round in a van with bread, and various other epicerie items and I meet my elderly neighbour at the van and get the kiss on each cheek.

Learning French -

We do our research and find things out for ourselves, which has sometimes been much easier than others have implied - proof of this was getting our phone line and Internet sorted at SFR, all done in french with the assistant and we took all the necessary documents as I checked it out online first - we were in, sorted and leaving within 15  minutes.

We are taking french lessons at the local AIKB with a lovely french lady and we are amazed how many people we have met don't make the effort to improve their french or make the effort to chat with their french neighbours.

Dont spend the rest of your life saying "what if" -

Anyway, life is good and we seem to have amazed friends and family by following our hearts and making the move. At the end of the day - you have to just do it, so we dont spend the rest of our lives saying "what if"

The next few months will hopefully see us sorting our carte vitale, registering for work and transferring our car and van over to French plates.

Hope everything is going well for you and Sharon.

Kind regards, Karen.

Karen bought a house in France with Cle France in the Cotes d'Armor department of the sunshine region of Brittany.

We arranged everything of course and made sur Karen was fully informed of the buying process right through to completion day in 2013 and beyond.

It is nice to keep in touch with our clients even more than 2 years later, it is that personal and professional service that makes everything worthwhile.

Thank you Cle France
