So the question isn't whether it could be done but whether you have the time, dedication and funds to restore that building and give it a new life. Hope you make the right decision for you

    I understand the desire to rescue a fine old building. I also understand that restoring one whose period interiors have vanished would allow you to install insulation, modern utilities, ducting etc, without having to destroy period finishes. BUT!!
    This looks like way too much. Just demolishing the hideous modern extensions would cost a fortune. My advice would be to find a smaller property that's similarly gutted but hasn't been engulfed in institutional extensions. Perhaps something like Dan's Chateau de Chaumont?

    • @Ragnar8504
      @Ragnar8504 5 дней назад +4

      This!
      I think the only vague possibility of saving this place would be a business venture like Château du Theil, which was completely rebuilt to become a hotel and restaurant. Restoring it as a family home seems flat-out mental just because of the sheer size of it. Chaumont is enormous as a home (I once guesstimated about 500 m2 of living space, probably a bit less) but this looks to be much, much bigger.

      It might be but not by one person and not as a home. Have a look at Château du Theil, it was at least as bad as this place and now the restaurant is up and running, the hotel should follow soon. That's a business with a chunky budget though and no pretense of putting back lost features, the inside looks like a completely new build.

    Hi Phil, not going to say RUN! Just make a list of the Pros and Cons ……
    Cons in no particular order 1. Money Pit, 2. Removal of the add ons 3. Clean up after, approximately 3 or 4 years later 4. Have the building assessed for structural integrity, asbestos etc 5. spend a small fortune on getting the asbestos removed 6. Get the building re-assessed (damage may occur when asbestos is removed) 7. Get a team together if health and safety concerns are addressed …
    Pros, in a perfect world it could be brought back to life.
    Just saying. Take care, keep smiling. Judith 🦋🥴

    That would have to be the most wonderful Insanity ever. Honestly really amazing but yes taking all the add on buildings down is definitely a big job. Costly. Definitely must be done as the add ons are quite ridiculous. But soooooooo worth it. ❤❤❤. Billie has an eye for a Gem!!!!
    Not sure it's your project Phil but it's definitely not hard to fall in love with it. 🥰🥰⭐⭐ If I had the money and no sore knees (and people) I'd would absolutely LOVE to do a project like that!!! It WILL be sold I know that much.

    Don't need the blurring, this place is already well known to the urbex community and pops right up with a simple keyword search. Much like trying to hide an elephant with a fig leaf. I'll give you points for the effort though.
    Thanks for the wander, saw the place two years ago on a different channel, it's about the same condition now as it was then.

    I could not wait for you to get out of that place, it literally made me feel queasy and almost scared. It does mot feel worth the herculean effort of renovating it. You already have so much on your plate, so complete tasks instead of bugling too many balls and letting most of them drop.

    Listen to Billy, he has a lot of great experiences with these types of buildings. Run and find something in better shape and smaller. 🇨🇦

    I can understand wanting a new project to go along with a new chapter in your life. Selling your current chateau (just assuming that’s where it would lead) and beginning something epic is appealing. But just like many have said, I’d listen to Billy on this particular property

    I’m already following Sadie and Stan, yourself and Billy. Please don’t take this massive project on, I don’t think it will make you happy. You still have lots to do in your own Chateau plus your other businesses. How many more segments do you want to divide yourself? 😍

    I agree with Billy too RUN. It would be a life's work. Mind you look what Dan is doing to his complete wreck of a château which was all but destroyed by fire.

    Phil it’s too insane for you. You started the bedroom months ago and never finished it. Stay where you can responsibly cope with the lot you have.

    Phil.. that’s bonkers. Even if it was FREE, it wouldn’t be worth it. Sometimes, regrettably, some places are too far gone. That one is beyond that.

    The previous owners/investors/financiers abandoned ship. Even IF one had the funds to completely renovate the structure(s), WHO would have the funds to maintain and/or live in it for any length of time? I respect and greatly appreciate the passion all of you have who are trying to save the ancient buildings, but I'd be inclined to salvage what architectural relics one could and demolish it.

    Hey Phil, I understand you want and need to restore these beautiful old Chateau's, really think about this one, not only your time and money, but a lot of the money will go towards a lot of trash. I would think about this one and maybe look into a few more, if you end up back there, it was meant to be. Good luck and I am definitely looking forward to your decision. Love from N.Y.

    Everything is fun to look at. Love the Mucky Mansion. You won't be warm for many years inside the 'hospital' chateau. Sadly, they destroyed all the things we love about a chateau. With the exception of staircases.
    Maybe, consider a 4 poster bed with the canopy blanket surround (the real reason they were used). Amazon has inexpensive Insulated cold weather Curtains that help keep cold out and warm inside.

    If you're looking for a place to renovate I think you need to look at something a lot smaller. Like the cottage on your property. Even if it were brought back to it's original glory I wouldn't live there because it's on a very busy road.

    The modern part could work as a place for exhibit and recovering of old cars, a school of recovering old cars, bicicles,even old airplanes. The land will hold much more than just the old chateau, but rather offer future to the people of France that love cars and old buildings. Good luck, buena suerte con la decisión.
