In the heart of Bécherel, the renowned medieval book town located just 30 minutes from Rennes and 40 minutes from Saint-Malo, this remarkable 17th-century timber-framed residence offers a rare lifestyle combining history, charm and authenticity. Built in 1643 on the village's central square, this former inn of approximately 300 sqm immediately captivates with its iconic colourful half-timbered façade and warm atmosphere. Behind this character-filled address lie generous reception rooms with period fireplaces, five bedrooms, and a south-facing enclosed garden, a true haven of peace sheltered from view. The property also includes a beautifully restored former weaver's workshop offering three additional guest bedrooms with private shower rooms, as well as a stone outbuilding with excellent potential for conversion or storage. Already well known and appreciated by visitors to the "Book Town", this unique property is ideally suited to continuing a charming guesthouse activity, developing a high-end hospitality project, or creating a spacious family home designed to welcome family and friends in an exceptional setting. Combining Breton heritage, a relaxed way of life and easy access to Paris thanks to the Rennes TGV station, just 90 minutes from the capital, this exceptional address will appeal equally to French and international buyers seeking a property steeped in history, only a short drive from the beaches of the Emerald Coast. A rare opportunity where centuries-old charm blends perfectly with the Breton art of living.
