You're so sweet!! I don't think I have the money or skill to renovate something on this scale, but it is fun to imagine I could! 🤣. And yes, there are lots of folks who like to discourage.. I appreciate your support!!! 😀
It's beautiful. But is this facade the front facade....? for such a grand house, I'd expect a grand entrance. Honestly, this looks like an american "duplex" - a side-by-side two-family residence.
This is an 1hr 40 minutes away from our Chateau. Please remember two things living in the "center of nowhere" , 1 - getting to it. It is 4.5 hrs away from pairs. 2 - resourcing goods of any kind. We are on our 2nd container with a 3rd behind it. Good luck
The iron grill along the roof line was an English creation for Widow's Walks along the roof line to keep her from falling during a storm, don't want the winds blowing her off with her skirts.... Remember, to be called a Chateau the original owner at construction had to have been a noble...and for those that are sticklers, PRE-Revolution, far too many vulgar uncultured uncouth Frenchies have been claiming their home is a chateau when their titles are dubious....at best!
Best of luck and go for your dream !! It’s your life , your money and time !!! Flip off anyone who stamps on your “ dream “

This is a nice one… good bones! And 22 acres is actually great to have it gives you space and privacy you don’t have to mow it all as a lawn!😉
I seem to think a few hours mowing the lawn might be therapeutic :). Of course 22 acres would be a chore!! Ha!
That's a beautiful Chateau!
Sure is! Even in its current state.... Something to admire!
Extraordinary find but you have to imagine you'll need another $500k to bring it back. New windows alone may take $200k
You're so right.... It's gonna to need a lot of love - and someone with deep pockets!

I totally get what you're saying. Maybe our American duplexes were modeled after them.. lol.

Being in the middle of nowhere would be an adjustment. Takes some planning, for sure!

Ahhhhh yes!! I knew there would be a name for it but I had no idea what it was! Thank you for telling me.
