Today’s little bit of real estate:
My father is selling his property in the South of France.
Oh, no, he’s not moving back up here, he’s too fond of the climate and of the French way of life. He’s bought himself another property in the area, since they’ve increased the number of horses, and need more space.
If you want to see the realtors prospect, it’s here.
As for me, I thought I’d put out some pics of my own – some from the property itself, and some from the area. Actually – the estate agents’ pics are better and there are more of them, so just click any photo below if you want to see more.
The Lot-et-Garonne is within spitting (pun intended) distance of the Bordeaux wine region, and has some fine wines of its own, there are medieval historic sites nearby, and the local food is to die for, both for the gourmet and the glutton!
This is the pool house – both it and the pool have been upgraded since!
The library/ dining room/great hall.
The houses – you can see the inner courtyard.
The “grotto houses” in the Perigord.
Bonaguil Castle, just a Sunday stroll away.
It’s a lovely place, with just the right amount of privacy (it’s all enclosed), and with room for horses. (Stables, a workshop, plenty of fenced outdoor space). The gardens are lovely (it’s more like a park, really), with fruit trees galore, and there is quite a lot of woodland as well. There are 2 large and 2 small apartments/houses, and one can start a bed-and breakfast right away, or just move in with all the family and still have room for guests.
So – do you know anyone who’d like to make the move? No renovation necessary, just pick up and move in. No floral wallpapers anywhere – the kitchens/kitchenettes are newly renovated, and so are the bathrooms. And – the owners just have to vacate – they don’t need to buy somewhere else first…
Stumble it!
