I am so grateful that there are people like him who have the means as well as the appreciation and enthusiasm to bring old buildings like this with their incredible are works back to life.
BE STILL MY HEART... My dream of one day owning a chateau in France, is mimicked in Timothy's enthusiasm with this MAGNIFICENT BEAUTY of his!!! WOW... ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!
You MUST take us back when Timothy has finished his renno! This is, by far, the most exciting video to date! I am over the moon for this chateau! I cannot wait to see all the blooming this place will be doing in the future.. Thanks again Susanna for sharing your travels with us! Wonderful, simply wonderful!
Bravo! Someone has taken on a huge project to save this chateau in France. The amazing history and the lifetime of achievement for restoring such a gem will last for hundreds of years to come. Leave a legacy save a chateau, save a castle, save a Victorian. Just do it!
The way Timothy excitedly unwrapped the gift you brought him was priceless! Like a little kid on Christmas morning! Loved it! Keep up the good work! Cheers!
What a beautiful Chateau! Thank you Timothy for sharing this "Sleeping Beauty". I can't wait to see its transformation! Susanna and Stacy you are the best when telling a story!
I love that he's saving these old great houses not everyone can afford to take on work like this! I would love to work on something as historic and once in a life time as this!
Love the house, gardens, that long view........... and Timothy! Such wonderful enthusiasm which was so infectious. A joy to watch. Thank you as ever..................... x
Thank YOU Helen!! So glad you enjoyed. We adore Timothy and can't wait to go back once travel is again possible (and the chateau is completed) to document the "after"!
Do invite us back when this one is finished. I would love to see the wonders you create here. Love your design style Timothy and thankful to Quintessence for showing it to us all.
Susanna, Stacey and Timothy, thank you for the tour. Opening the door to each room was like opening a treasure chest. Your chateau is lovely. And, the light and grounds are magical. Thank you again for inviting us in.
i mean its not a public service. hes making money off of it of course. its being sold off to people. Unless it is being opened up to the public to visit then hes not doing the public service, the person who bought it is. hes just commissioned
When I first saw this video 5 years, well I almost had a nervous breakdown, no kidding. It took me back to my childhood living in France. If I ever win the Lottery, my first phone call is to find a broker and call Timothy to get the ball rolling. We all should have Dreams, what is yours? ❤️🇫🇷❤️
Dear Susanna and Stacey: thank you so very much for this gorgeous visit to Chevallerie....I cannot think of two more lovely friends to share this magical place with. Merci, merci! xoxo
Well I see its been 4 years since I first saw this and I know several major things have happened to slow down the renovations Timothy was hoping for; but unexpected Covid put a damper on a great deal of things everywhere on the planet and France is also now in an uproar over lots of immigration problems, among other things, that resulted from Covid not to mention the present day Political climate in all of France. With all that said has Tim been able to progress any farther with this magnificent restoration? I can only imagine how difficult it must be for him about now and we all know he is never going to do it unless its done in the proper way no matter what.. I am sure many of us are looking forward to his updates on this most ambitious project that he will pour his great talent and love into the restoration no matter how long it may take...Sending Tim all the love and patience he will need about now to restore this current treasure....I know he feels the same way.....This Chateau was just sitting waiting for Tim to rescue it....God sent it to Tim to do the job...and i know he will as soon as he can...
Susanna and Stacey......you are an absolute integral part of my daily life!!! Thank you a million times for exposing us to beauty and dreams like this!!!!!! PLEASE take us back when the renovation is completed! I BEG YOU!!!!!!!!
franz grabe Thank you so much Franz!! Delighted to be a part of your daily viewing and so enjoy your comments here! We will hopefully be bringing you the “after” of Tim’s magnificent chateau - stay tuned!!
Timothy is do brave to take on such an enormously fabulous and historic project at this stage. Not that he's old, but, after completing Chateau du Grande-Lucé I'd have just hung up my hat and licked my lips like a Cheshire cat at my accomplishment. He is amazing. Looking forward to seeing the completed project.
Ah! But what might be of one person's dream that has a happy ending, might be another's dream that has no ending. 😉 I could see where restoration could become a lovely habit to form, but chateaus! I'm excited to see someone restoring such beauty and history. I hope it catches on so more will respectfully do the same. How does he contain himself?😍
I’ve been watching all your videos and this is by far my favorite. I love him. I would love to be his friend. I could listen to him all day describing everything. I felt his excitement and see his vision. I wish him the best. I hope he continues to enjoy the process even with Covid. Thank you to all for sharing their homes. ❤️
😊👍🏽 Thank you. Loved this. I just bought a new home so I'm so inspired by this even though my place is not a chateau. This was just lovely. Looking forward to the finished product...but I think I may have seen it. 😊
How exciting for you, Timothy, to be renovating such a jewel. I can't imagine the layers of history incorporated with the devotion of such love you must have for this beautiful chateau. You are undoubtedly the gentleman to be overseeing the renovations with your reverence to the past and your foresight to unveiling that which is yet to come. I can only hope there will be copious amounts of champagne to celebrate your achievements along the way. Well done, Mr. Corrigan. Darryl
Susan and Stacy thank you for this wonderful tour. The chateau certainly is a gem. Love to see it finished. Timothy is just the right person to own and restore it's charm. Your gift to him was a forever preserved memory of all the special guests he will entertain. I can't say it enough times how much I love your chanel. And all the talented designers you visit.I am inspired by all of them. Thank you. 💋
Thank YOU!!! We love our enthusiastic viewers like you - why we do what we do!! We will go back to Timothy's when he is done and it's safe to travel again!
Oh my word ... how absolutely magical! Susanna, I absolutely love every single one of your beautiful videos ... what a gift they are to us!! I am just in awe ...
We have a more recent video with Timothy in his LA office discussing some of his decor decisions for the chateau! And stay tuned - we'll be going back to France as soon as we can to bring you the "after".
@@quintessenceblg Thanks for the prompt reply, I will anticipate seeing the progress on this dwelling. I last visited France in August 2019 and skipped Paris altogether, driving straight to Versailles from GDH and then down to the Loire. I often say that 18th century French architecture was the height of taste and design. Looking forward to seeing this chateau post restoration work. PS. I find some of the most interesting parts of such chateau's are the lesser seen areas (cellars, basements, attic, pantries) when back, perhaps film some of those sections as well. Cheers, From Canada.
At long last!!! I've been waiting for this video for so long. My heart skipped a beat when it appeared in my feed. I've watched it three times already! Timothy Corrigan is my absolute favorite designer. He is so warm and charming and passionate and that comes across in his design. He seems like a person you'd want to stay friends with too. I will be dreaming of the end result until I see what he does with the place. Although, personally I could move in right now with nothing other than an air mattress and be utterly content until I died. It is that gorgeous. The setting! My goodness. Just breathtaking.
6.4.20 ~ Oh, my goodness! How fantastic Chateau de la Chevallerie will be once Timothy puts his vision into the realm of reality. I sure do hope that there will be revisits along the way. And what a super wonderful Chateau warming gift that Guest Book was! Than you, so very much for allowing us along for this first of many (I hope) visits to Timothy's French country home.
Wow, just amazing! I absolutely love Tim's passion & enthusiasm. What an incredible service this will be for the community. This couldn't be a better way to honor the craftsmanship of yesteryear.
When looking for Chateaus...its beautiful and all of the details are exquisite. Every single aspect is perfect, superfluous. My stars such beauty and exceptional detail and character and centuries of love and care and appreciation for its beauty.
I SO enjoyed this video. The estate is already magnificent. I can hardly wait to see it renovated and decorated! I will be one of the first on the list for the presale of his next book about this home.
Like water to a dying man. I happened upon your wonderful vid by happy accident. Corrigan's unabashed joy and delight in sharing his breathtaking new project is inspirational and makes me so happy. Thank you.
Bonjour Suzanna and Stacey, usually I have comments, thoughts, sharing my feelings about a video. This time I am totally out of breath and no words come to my mind to describe what I saw ! One thing I am sure it will be so interesting to see the transformation of this Chateau. Just EPIC !! Much love and more love for you girls for bringing us to Timothy's Chateau. (( hugs )) P.s.: Many thanks to Timothy for letting us see this marvelous place.
What a magnificent house! They sure don't build them like this anymore. Has a great feel to it. Can't wait to see it finished. Good on you Timothy for renovating it. Enjoy it
Drinking it all in. An infectious combination. Another exciting journey . A perfect taste of heaven. You chose such a charming gift. Thank you for another favourite.
This property has much more potential than Le Grand Luce, so much character here. I totally understand Timothy!!!I have no idea how to renovate it, it`s so much work. Moldings are insanely beautiful. He has the most amazing eye for beautiful things! I can`t wait to see the process results. GOOD LUCK, Tim!!!
I'm eager to see an update on what's been happening at the chateau! It's a great place to begin with and then with Timothy Corrigan's skill, taste, knowledge, organization, attention to detail along with his enthusiasm it will be one of the best homes ever. He could make even a garage or tool shed or gas station into something special. So many terrific designers and decorators here on Quintessence but Timothy Corrigan is my favorite.
Wow this is a stunning chateaux, I love the architecture, the interior details are beautiful. I love the hand carved walls and doors. Wow I can’t wait to see this place renovated, and you going back and filming it. Thank you for a stunning and inspiring video xx
What an extraordinary man so full of warmth and love for France and its history.A most amazing acquisition. Loved the private chapel so very much a part of French history.
Bluewren Reilly All true - Timothy has a passion for France, it’s history and its decorative arts! Stay tuned for hopefully a video for after the renovation is complete!
Loved your beautiful tour, We lived in Chatellerault , courtesy of US Army in 1957-1958I saw many Chateaus in the Loire valley and enjoyed reliving the experience
Hi Susanna and Stacy. When I first heard that Timothy had sold his beautiful Chateaux, I was horrified. But his new Chateaux is magnificent. I am so happy Timothy bought it because I know he will do a truly wonderful job. Kind regards Kate. X
This chateau is in really good shape! Great bones. Timothy Corrigan is going to have fun restoring it. Love that he appreciates the artistry of the house & is going to preserve it. Can't wait to see the restoration in the future. BTW - The house warming gift was perfect!
Thank you Dee Dee - we hope Tim enjoys his gift! And yes, there is so much fantastic original detailing. We will be back to bring you the "after" hopefully next year!
That was a wonderful tour. Thank you for highlighting some of the finer details and adornments of that magnificent chateau. I wish you much success preserving that gorgeous piece of history.
Susanna I am so excited for Timothy He looks like he couldn't be happier. Spectacular! I am hoping he will share his updates on the new chateau with his many fans Your choice of a gift is probably the best and so much appreciated by him. I love watching Quintessence I'm so thankful he is willing to share. You make these beautiful people so happy. Your the best. pvr
What a beautiful and amazing place ...Once more a cool video you guys keep coming up with the most interesting and unique people to showcase ...keep up the great work ...
At age 64 I like to say that I have lived my life without envy but watching this I have felt a pang of what I can only imagine is ,,,, envy ! How on earth this chateau has survived intact over the centuries and not been vandalised by modernisation is a miracle ! Can't wait to see the results, would soooooooo love to see the process, my favorite part. Thank you girls xoxo
You are so very welcome and we did a little video in Tim's office in LA where he shared a bit of his process. Also, we will be back this fall to film the "after" - stay tuned!!
A high point in French architecture and decorative art. He's the best man for it too. Great eye. This is totally banal but I wonder how he'll fit modern amenities , i.e., bathrooms, etc. into the floor plan. If anyone can do it sensitively and appropriately it's Tim Corrigan. I hope we get to see the finished product.
He will manage - with sensitivity and style! And of course we will be bringing you the finished product! As soon as Timothy is finished and we can safely travel to France again, we'll be there!!
I am in love with that place! I felt the same way you all did, just watching from my computer! I can't wait to see it all come together for Timothy! Thank you for sharing!
How amazing. I don't think I've seen a property like this ever ... its so perfect yet so in need of love & attention simultaneously. I can only imagine how fabulous it will be when Mr Corrigan works his magic on it. Damn the heating bills hand out down jackets to guests.
It is always nice to see very old architectural gems getting the love and attention they deserve for the present and for future generations as well!!! Hope Timothy lets us view the final transformation of this beautiful and historical property
So glad you have found us! Isn't Timothy's new chateau amazing? Hope you'll scroll through and check out some of our other episodes and stay tuned for the "after" of the chateau...
Timothy, I hope that’s not poison ivy!!! How wonderful for you and the chateau. I think its marvelous that you plan to bring this beauty back to its glory. Congratulations and good luck. Thank you Quintessence for bringing us to see this chateau. Looking forward to updates on its progress.
I am so grateful that there are people like him who have the means as well as the appreciation and enthusiasm to bring old buildings like this with their incredible are works back to life.
Amen!!
So grateful there are people who appreciate these chateaux and are eager to restore them 😍
I love his enthusiasm. He is worthy of this chateau, and is the type of person who should own a treasure like this.
He's like a giddy kid the night before Christmas! Or even after, "Look at This, & See This!" Jumping from here to there! He makes me feel it!
Lol, nobody on this earth is worthy of a chateau! Though you do deserve all the slavishness you willfully and delightfully accept without question.
So true!! ❤️
BE STILL MY HEART... My dream of one day owning a chateau in France, is mimicked in Timothy's enthusiasm with this MAGNIFICENT BEAUTY of his!!! WOW... ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!
I understand!! Be sure to check out our other chateau videos with Timothy....
"When you were shopping for chateaus" has to be the best opening line ever! xo
K B 👍🏻👍🏻
Who doesn't want that to be their life? lol
We are out here! Looking at Chateaux d'Aubiry. Soon. Very soon.
I shop for a new tee shirt and enjoy it very much, never shopped for a chateau. One wonders what feels like.
It's just so many rooms...and all those trees oh my... claustrophobia I just now contracted it. No way out!!
You MUST take us back when Timothy has finished his renno! This is, by far, the most exciting video to date! I am over the moon for this chateau! I cannot wait to see all the blooming this place will be doing in the future.. Thanks again Susanna for sharing your travels with us! Wonderful, simply wonderful!
Amy Hoffmann it is our honor and pleasure!!
We hope to!! We can't wait to what magic Timothy weaves there!! - Stacey (behind the camera)
Thank you Stacey for all your efforts behind the camera! Really beautiful work and I appreciate it!
Thank you again Susanna for all your efforts! I love these videos!
@@TheTinywhitedove Thank you Amy!
Good God he's got taste! The last chateau was beautiful, but this is next level!
flowerydave flowerydave Yes he does!!
Bravo! Someone has taken on a huge project to save this chateau in France. The amazing history and the lifetime of achievement for restoring such a gem will last for hundreds of years to come. Leave a legacy save a chateau, save a castle, save a Victorian. Just do it!
Totally agree - and stay tuned for the "after" - hopefully next year!
This is SO stunning, it HURTS! That courtyard, that tree-lined backyard. Swoon.
Alicia Egan it is indeed beautiful! Glad you found it inspiring!
Tim is the perfect person to restore this magnificent property I am so happy he bought it Bravo Timothy..
Nancy Whitehead Couldn’t agree more!
The way Timothy excitedly unwrapped the gift you brought him was priceless! Like a little kid on Christmas morning!
Loved it! Keep up the good work! Cheers!
We were so thrilled he liked it! And thank you!!
My favorite part!!
One of my favorites, thank you for sharing. Timothy Corrigan is one of the best designers.
Our pleasure!1
I love seeing his excitement and that he’s not afraid to show it. So many hide excitement. Why? I too would be dancing through the fields!
Timothy Corrigan, a visionary , such enthusiasm , love his energy
Thank you Quintessence .
Mary Canada 🇨🇦
Our pleasure! We can’t wait to go back after Timothy is finished!
What a beautiful Chateau! Thank you Timothy for sharing this "Sleeping Beauty". I can't wait to see its transformation! Susanna and Stacy you are the best when telling a story!
thegardengazer We can’t wait either - and thank you very much - we love giving design a voice!
All the very best with this exquisite adventure. What a magnificent opportunity to bring it all back to life. 👍👍❤️❤️
Indeed!! Can’t wait to share the “after” once Timothy is finished and it’s safe to travel again!
I love that he's saving these old great houses not everyone can afford to take on work like this! I would love to work on something as historic and once in a life time as this!
My FAVORITE Chateau ever❣
It's a beauty!
Wow!! One of the most beautiful Chateaus I have ever seen! I can see why he was smitten with it!!! Just stunning!!!❤️🇨🇦
Love the house, gardens, that long view........... and Timothy! Such wonderful enthusiasm which was so infectious. A joy to watch. Thank you as ever..................... x
Thank YOU Helen!! So glad you enjoyed. We adore Timothy and can't wait to go back once travel is again possible (and the chateau is completed) to document the "after"!
if he can re-do another chateau...I can re-do my bathroom...lol...I feel totally inspired...you are the best!
Pallatium you can do it LOL!
LOL - you can do it!!
Do invite us back when this one is finished. I would love to see the wonders you create here. Love your design style Timothy and thankful to Quintessence for showing it to us all.
We definitely will! Hoping to go in 2023!!
Susanna, Stacey and Timothy, thank you for the tour. Opening the door to each room was like opening a treasure chest. Your chateau is lovely. And, the light and grounds are magical. Thank you again for inviting us in.
Our complete pleasure!
It is our pleasure and it's true - the chateau and grounds are pure magic!
Exquisite. Thank you Timothy for renovating my future home. ;)
LOL! Glad you enjoyed!
WOW!!!
I would love to know the history of this chateau and its inhabitants. I wonder how long ago someone has lived in it too? Simply gorgeous!
Congratulations! It's a pleasure to know that this beautiful château is saved from decay... 🌹
We agree and look forward to revisiting once Timothy has completed his work snd it is safe to travel once again!
I couldn’t stop smiling! I loved his excitement! The gift was perfect.
Whoever did the filming did a good job. Lovely views of the rooms, details and connection to the outside.
Well that would be me! Thanks so much and so glad you enjoyed!
Timothy is doing a tremendous public service by restoring not one, but two Chateaus. What an incredible legacy.
Jhw Webster Totally agree snd this is actually his fourth chateau!
The French government (especially after his second Chateaux) should be more amenable and gracious to him.
i mean its not a public service. hes making money off of it of course. its being sold off to people. Unless it is being opened up to the public to visit then hes not doing the public service, the person who bought it is. hes just commissioned
@@KimmyQueen Two chateaux one chateau. It's French.
Only an American could say something so obnoxious.
When I first saw this video 5 years, well I almost had a nervous breakdown, no kidding. It took me back to my childhood living in France.
If I ever win the Lottery, my first phone call is to find a broker and call Timothy to get the ball rolling.
We all should have Dreams, what is yours?

Dear Susanna and Stacey: thank you so very much for this gorgeous visit to Chevallerie....I cannot think of two more lovely friends to share this magical place with. Merci, merci! xoxo
Thank you for taking on this project and saving such an amazing property. Looking forward to seeing the results of your hard work & expertise.
Your friendship and talents are a true gift!!! We adore you. Stacey and Susanna

Deneida Malave Exactly! Glad you enjoyed!
This is so incredibly beautiful. I am so happy for him. The owner is the type of person who should own this exquisite piece of history.
Couldn't agree more! And as soon as Timothy is finished and it is safe to travel again, we will bring you the finished chateau!
Excellent tour! Thank you for highlighting some of the interior architectural elements. Beautiful home.
Our pleasure - so glad you enjoyed! Stay tuned for the "after" which we will film whenever Timothy is done and it is safe to travel once again!
Magnificent beauty!
Thank you!!!
Invidio non il castello ma l'entusiasmo, la forza, la voglia di far fronte ad un simile immobile. Bravo. Complimenti
Timothy is do brave to take on such an enormously fabulous and historic project at this stage. Not that he's old, but, after completing Chateau du Grande-Lucé I'd have just hung up my hat and licked my lips like a Cheshire cat at my accomplishment.
He is amazing. Looking forward to seeing the completed project.
He is indeed - both brave and amazing!! We hope to be able to bring you the finished project!!
Ah! But what might be of one person's dream that has a happy ending, might be another's dream that has no ending. 😉 I could see where restoration could become a lovely habit to form, but chateaus! I'm excited to see someone restoring such beauty and history. I hope it catches on so more will respectfully do the same. How does he contain himself?😍
He'll be onto something else after this one too. Is the creative process that lights him up.
I’ve been watching all your videos and this is by far my favorite. I love him. I would love to be his friend. I could listen to him all day describing everything. I felt his excitement and see his vision. I wish him the best. I hope he continues to enjoy the process even with Covid. Thank you to all for sharing their homes. ❤️
Delighted to hear it! We adore Timothy too and can't wait to go back to France once travel is safe again and bring you the finished chateau!
I would LOVE to see the finished product after the renovation and decorations. It was infectious seeing him talk about and show off his new home.
We are planning to revisit and bring you the after - hopefully next year! Stay tuned!!
😊👍🏽 Thank you. Loved this. I just bought a new home so I'm so inspired by this even though my place is not a chateau. This was just lovely. Looking forward to the finished product...but I think I may have seen it. 😊
How exciting for you, Timothy, to be renovating such a jewel. I can't imagine the layers of history incorporated with the devotion of such love you must have for this beautiful chateau. You are undoubtedly the gentleman to be overseeing the renovations with your reverence to the past and your foresight to unveiling that which is yet to come. I can only hope there will be copious amounts of champagne to celebrate your achievements along the way.

Totally agree Darryl - the chateau should be thankful to be in Timothy's knowledgeable hands. Stay tuned for the "after" hopefully next year!
Oh my gosh...this estate is magnificent. I can't wait to see the after! Peace friend. 🦋

When looking for Chateaus...its beautiful and all of the details are exquisite. Every single aspect is perfect, superfluous. My stars such beauty and exceptional detail and character and centuries of love and care and appreciation for its beauty.
I SO enjoyed this video. The estate is already magnificent. I can hardly wait to see it renovated and decorated! I will be one of the first on the list for the presale of his next book about this home.

Timothy is the best! So glad you have found us. Feel free to take a look at our many other videos including one of Timothy's last chateau!
Bonjour Suzanna and Stacey, usually I have comments, thoughts, sharing my feelings about a video. This time I am totally out of breath and no words come to my mind to describe what I saw !

Best At Home episode yet! I’m almost as excited as he was! Please revisit this project as it progresses! Merci!!
Karen Milovich So glad you enjoyed! And when Tim is done and as soon as we can safely travel, we will return!
This property has much more potential than Le Grand Luce, so much character here. I totally understand Timothy!!!I have no idea how to renovate it, it`s so much work. Moldings are insanely beautiful. He has the most amazing eye for beautiful things! I can`t wait to see the process results. GOOD LUCK, Tim!!!
Totally agree on all!! Stay tuned!
Timothy is so amazing and exuberant! as are his homes! He brings them back to life with such care and joy!!!
Couldn't agree more!
He's so excited about it. It makes me happy for him.
I'm eager to see an update on what's been happening at the chateau! It's a great place to begin with and then with Timothy Corrigan's skill, taste, knowledge, organization, attention to detail along with his enthusiasm it will be one of the best homes ever. He could make even a garage or tool shed or gas station into something special. So many terrific designers and decorators here on Quintessence but Timothy Corrigan is my favorite.
Would love to see a gas station ;-) We adore Timothy and will hopefully be bringing the "after" of the chateau to you next year!
Wow this is a stunning chateaux, I love the architecture, the interior details are beautiful. I love the hand carved walls and doors. Wow I can’t wait to see this place renovated, and you going back and filming it. Thank you for a stunning and inspiring video xx
Thank you Rowaida!! It is indeed an exceptional chateau and we do hope we'll be able to bring you the "after."
What an extraordinary man so full of warmth and love for France and its history.A most amazing acquisition. Loved the private chapel so very much a part of French history.
Bluewren Reilly All true - Timothy has a passion for France, it’s history and its decorative arts! Stay tuned for hopefully a video for after the renovation is complete!
Enjoyed immensely, had to watch in twice, can't wait to see the video when he completes it, I know it's going to be even more beautiful
Loved your beautiful tour, We lived in Chatellerault , courtesy of US Army in 1957-1958I saw many Chateaus in the Loire valley and enjoyed reliving the experience
gail goodstein Delighted to help recall such lovely memories. Glad you enjoyed!
Hi Susanna and Stacy. When I first heard that Timothy had sold his beautiful
Chateaux, I was horrified. But his new Chateaux is magnificent. I am so happy
Timothy bought it because I know he will do a truly wonderful job.
Kind regards
Kate. X
Thank you Kate! We are sure he will too!! - Stacey
One chateau, two chateaux, please get it right
This chateau is in really good shape! Great bones. Timothy Corrigan is going to have fun restoring it. Love that he appreciates the artistry of the house & is going to preserve it. Can't wait to see the restoration in the future. BTW - The house warming gift was perfect!

What a beautiful and amazing place ...Once more a cool video you guys keep coming up with the most interesting and unique people to showcase ...keep up the great work ...
That's such a beautiful and thoughtful gift. Well done. And the Chateau; wow. The grounds made me cry.
Thank you!! Stay tuned for the after sometime next year!
Very beautiful already...
At age 64 I like to say that I have lived my life without envy but watching this I have felt a pang of what I can only imagine is ,,,, envy ! How on earth this chateau has survived intact over the centuries and not been vandalised by modernisation is a miracle ! Can't wait to see the results, would soooooooo love to see the process, my favorite part. Thank you girls xoxo
You are so very welcome and we did a little video in Tim's office in LA where he shared a bit of his process. Also, we will be back this fall to film the "after" - stay tuned!!
Amazing video, i can’t waiting to see this gorgeous house all furnished.
Thank you very much Susan for share this moment with us.
Thank you Suzana - we can't wait to see if fully finished either!
This has to be the most exciting project I have EVER seen! all the best!
So glad you enjoyed!! Stay tuned (hopefully next year) for the after.
this is why I laugh when I see those Los Angeles mega-mansions... look at this effing chateau...
Isn't it just beautiful? And stay tuned for when we bring you the "after" hopefully next yeaer!
@@quintessenceblg So looking forward.
@@quintessenceblg Any updates on Tims new chateau ? Please PS LOVE your channel -- Australia
Craig Parham Thank you!!! Did you see our video with Tim in his LA office discussing his color and fabric and color schemes for the chateau?
@@quintessenceblg watched it all Darl - need more !! xx thanks
A high point in French architecture and decorative art. He's the best man for it too. Great eye. This is totally banal but I wonder how he'll fit modern amenities , i.e., bathrooms, etc. into the floor plan. If anyone can do it sensitively and appropriately it's Tim Corrigan. I hope we get to see the finished product.
He will manage - with sensitivity and style! And of course we will be bringing you the finished product! As soon as Timothy is finished and we can safely travel to France again, we'll be there!!
I hope you show us room-by-room renovations in videos. The chateau is gorgeous!
We hope to be able to show the after when done....
@@quintessenceblg Even if it is a 30 or 40 minute video. I need to see it!
And that guest book is the perfect gift! I love your handwriting as well...uber fancy!
Thank you so much!
I am in love with that place! I felt the same way you all did, just watching from my computer! I can't wait to see it all come together for Timothy! Thank you for sharing!
We are so gonna need an update in this one! Cant wait to see it!
And you will get one - as soon as Timothy is finished and travel is safe again!!
How amazing. I don't think I've seen a property like this ever ... its so perfect yet so in need of love & attention simultaneously. I can only imagine how fabulous it will be when Mr Corrigan works his magic on it. Damn the heating bills hand out down jackets to guests.
Good idea I like your attitude!
Love that suggestion!! And yes, it is a truly beautiful property!!
OMG don't we all wish we had such a place to live. I have no words, and watching this I was madly planning what I would put where etc.......lovely.
It is always nice to see very old architectural gems getting the love and attention they deserve for the present and for future generations as well!!! Hope Timothy lets us view the final transformation of this beautiful and historical property
Totally agree and fingers crossed!
i stumbled upon this video ....... what a delight!! (sheep in the distance is good .... )
So glad you have found us! Isn't Timothy's new chateau amazing? Hope you'll scroll through and check out some of our other episodes and stay tuned for the "after" of the chateau...
Timothy, I hope that’s not poison ivy!!! How wonderful for you and the chateau. I think its marvelous that you plan to bring this beauty back to its glory. Congratulations and good luck. Thank you Quintessence for bringing us to see this chateau. Looking forward to updates on its progress.
Our pleasure!! We are hoping to share the after!
How fabulous is this place & he is the essence of quintessence!!!
It IS and we adore Timothy!!
No way ! I had no idea Timothy had purchased a new chateau!! lets hope he brings out a book with this one, too. Love the video as always, guys ❤️
Thank you Simon!!
Incredibly beautiful... I'm getting envy😀 It is indeed something to dream of 😛
