Maison d’Armateur du XVIII ème siècle Coeur historique de Paimpol

In a quiet and sought-after alley in the historic town center of Paimpol, a few steps from the port and all amenities, hidden behind its magnificent solid iron gate, in a 900 m2 sunny green setting sheltered from the winds, is discovered this magnificent villa with outbuilding of more than 300m2 of living space.
