About this property
A boat house on the beach
Once a historic maritime building, this tastefully renovated loft offers a peaceful, light-filled setting by the sea, in the heart of Paimpol. Its spacious interiors, panoramic suite with hot tub and pool table, and garden make it perfect for relaxing with family or friends. Everything is within walking distance: beach, harbor, market, coastal trails, restaurants, and Breton festivities. Kayaks, paddleboards, and personalized services complete this rare, inspiring retreat between land and sea. The Loft at Four à Chaux – A unique place in tune with the rhythm of the sea, in Paimpol 🌊 A unique past, an unspoiled soul Originally a wooden boat shed, transformed into stables during World War II, and later an oyster sorting workshop, this historic building has been fully renovated to become a one-of-a-kind living space. Even today, it continues to resonate with the rhythm of the sea. You might be surprised by the sound of the wind in the rigging from the nearby shipyard or the crashing of waves against the seawall during the winter. If you love the ocean and its ever-changing moods, this place is made for you. From the second floor, it feels as if you could reach out and touch the seagulls soaring on the rising currents just outside the huge picture window. As the day ends, the light from the west bathes the space in golden, warm reflections. 🏡 A rare and light-filled space, perfect for a getaway The Loft can accommodate up to 8 people in 4 bedrooms, two of which have their own private bathrooms. On the top floor, the master suite of 100 m² offers a breathtaking view of the entrance to Paimpol harbor. It includes a living room with a pool table, a hot tub, and promises moments of relaxation out of time. The expansive, light-filled living areas look directly onto the channel. You can watch the sailing boats, fishing boats, and old sailing ships passing by, especially during the Fête des Chants de Marins, held every two years in August. 🌿 Outdoor spaces and amenities for a worry-free stay The beautifully landscaped garden is perfect for barbecues, long terrace aperitifs, or relaxing moments in the sun loungers. The 3000 m² estate can accommodate up to 6 vehicles behind a remote-controlled gate. 🚶♀️ Everything within reach Located between the beach and the town center, the Loft is the perfect starting point to discover the Breton landscapes. The coastal trail GR34 runs along the granite wall of the property: in just a few steps, you’ll reach the Tossen seawater pool (supervised in summer) or set off hiking toward the Abbey of Beauport and the Cliffs Circuit. All shops, restaurants, and cultural activities are within walking distance: summer concerts (Les Mardis du Port), the Museum of the Sea, the Art & Essay cinema, the market, the skate park, sea fishing trips, visits to the island of Bréhat… there’s something for everyone. 🛶 For water sports enthusiasts: kayaks and paddleboards are available! 📶 Comfort & services: • Two office spaces with high-speed Wi-Fi • Additional computer screen available upon request • Linen provided (beds made upon arrival, towels, dish towels) • End-of-stay cleaning included • All utilities and local taxes included 🛎️ Optional services upon reservation: • Grocery delivery before arrival • Regular cleaning (daily or weekly) • Babysitting • Catering service or crepes truck at your doorstep • Seafood platters delivered on-site • Massages, meditation, yoga, Pilates, facial and body treatments at home 🏡 A recognized place The Loft has attracted the attention of national press: Côté Ouest, Côté Maison, Le Point, Figaro Magazine… all have praised this extraordinary place. The articles are available on our website. 👥 Privatization available The garden is shared only through the access gate with the neighboring Manor (250 m², 7 bedrooms). The two spaces can be rented together to accommodate up to 22 people. Quote upon request. ⚠️ Please note: • Due to its privileged and peaceful location, the Loft is not suitable for parties, bachelor/bachelorette parties, or noisy events. • We love pets, but unfortunately, they are not allowed. • The stairs leading to the upper floors are not suitable for people with reduced mobility or young children left unsupervised. • Paimpol train station is less than a 15-minute walk away. The living room doors lead either to the beach or to the landscaped garden with a terrace, table, barbecue, ping-pong table, and sun loungers. No shared spaces. We are very discreet but will be there if you need us! Calm neighborhood by the sea, a few steps away from the city center. The property has private parking for 2 cars, with remote control gate. Paimpol’s train station in less that 15mn away, walking.
