This gîte complex for sale in Allier, near Ainay-le-Château, has seven renovated stone gîtes, a main house and a converted event barn. Together they sleep about 44 guests around a shared courtyard, and the sale includes the furnishings, tools and inventory, so the next owner can open the doors straight away. For anyone who wants to live and work in the same place, it is a small, self-contained village in rural central France. ### Seven Stone Gîtes Around a Courtyard Most of the buildings are 300 to 400 years old, and the renovation kept what matters: heavy oak beams, natural stone walls about 50 cm thick and the traditional roof structures. The roofs have been renewed. The newest building dates from 1884 and has also been renovated recently. Each of the seven gîtes has its own kitchen, sanitary facilities and a private outdoor seating area. Groups share the courtyard but not the evening. The layouts sleep 4, 6 or up to 12 people, so you can host a family of four and a party of twelve friends in the same week. ### The Main House, the Barn and 5,733 m² of Grounds The owner's house has six bedrooms and two bathrooms. It is big enough for a family and sits right where on-site management needs to be. Across the courtyard, a large barn has been converted into a multifunctional hall with underfloor heating, a professional kitchen and sanitary facilities. Think yoga retreats, workshops, group dinners or small weddings. The grounds add several more barns, a workshop, storage rooms and covered outdoor areas that work for parking or storage. There is an old bread oven and a water well with spring water. A small camping area comes with sanitary facilities, an outdoor kitchen and electrical connections. The plot itself is 5,73 ... click here to read more

Main courtyard and stone houses

This 17th-century granite house for sale in Josselin, Morbihan, has 420 m² of living space and nine bedrooms, including five former guesthouse suites. The house stands about ten minutes from Josselin, with its riverside castle and half-timbered lanes, and roughly 30 km from Vannes. It was built for a local notable, and the stonework shows it: granite rubble walls, carved stone details, heavy wooden beams and big open fireplaces. Over the years it has also run as a guesthouse. That history gives you a layout with real flexibility, whether you want one very large family home or a house with separate guest quarters. ### The House and Its 1,203 m² Garden The main building is split into two distinct parts. The ground-floor wing is laid out as five suites, three of them duplexes, each with its own entrance. Guests or extended family can come and go without crossing the main living areas. A separate reception room has a large stone fireplace, handy for a long table at Christmas or a breakfast room if you ever return to hosting. The upper, manor-style part of the house is where you would live day to day. It has a very large eat-in kitchen, fitted and equipped, with a pantry and a laundry area. Next to it is a spacious living room with a big fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove. In a Breton winter, that is where everyone ends up. An old turret has been converted into a patio overlooking the garden. It is the spot for morning coffee while the mist lifts off the lawn. The plot is 1,203 m², which is enough for a terrace, a vegetable bed and space for children, but still easy to look after. ### Living Near Josselin, Morbihan Josselin is one of inland Brittany's best-known small towns. The château rises directly above the ... click here to read more

This architect-designed house for sale in Val-d'Oise sits above Saint-Cyr-en-Arthies, with six bedrooms and an enclosed 1,176 m² garden. It has about 206 m² of living space, and the usable floor area reaches roughly 365 m² once you add the garage and basement. The grounds are planted with trees and have no neighbours looking in. From the plot you see across the village and out over the Vexin countryside. It suits a large family, or two generations under one roof. It also works as a second home in France within reach of Paris. ### The House: 206 m² of Living Space Plus a Basement You come in through an entrance hall. The living room has a fireplace, which makes it the natural place to gather from autumn to spring. The kitchen is fitted and equipped and measures about 27 m². It opens onto the terrace and the garden, so breakfast can move outside without anyone carrying trays across the house. The ground floor also holds a bedroom, an office, a second smaller office and a WC. That is useful if someone needs a bedroom without stairs, or if two people work from home and want separate rooms. Upstairs there are five more bedrooms. One is a master suite with its own shower room. There is also a family bathroom with WC, a separate WC and plenty of built-in storage, which large houses often lack. The practical spaces are generous. A garage of about 50 m² takes two cars and is attached to the house, and there is a laundry room next to it. Below sits a basement of about 109 m², split into five rooms. The agent's data lists the property in good condition. ### Garden and Views over the Vexin The plot covers 1,176 m² and is fully enclosed. Mature trees give it shade and privacy, and the position on the heights of the village ke ... click here to read more

This renovated house for sale in Amboise sits at the foot of the Château d'Amboise, with a direct view of the castle and shops one minute away. It has four bedrooms, a private courtyard and 140 m² of living space. Most people who fall for Amboise do it on foot, and this house suits that. Step out of the front door and you are a minute from the shops, restaurants and schools, yet the street itself is quiet. Look up and the château fills the view. That combination is hard to find in a Loire Valley town where visitors crowd the centre in summer. ### A Renovated Character House Below the Château The house is historic, but it has been completely renovated, using eco-friendly materials. The work included insulation and fresh paintwork, so the rooms stay comfortable in both summer and winter. That matters in an old house, and it means a buyer can move in without a long building project ahead. The renovation kept the original details. You will find antique Versailles parquet floors, terracotta tiles, exposed beams, stone and brick walls, old woodwork, stained glass and a glass roof. None of it looks staged. These are the features that make a Loire townhouse feel like one. ### Room by Room The ground floor starts with an entrance hall that sets the tone. Beyond it is a double living and dining room under exposed beams, which opens onto the courtyard. On a warm evening you can leave the doors open and eat outside. The kitchen is fitted and equipped, with a pantry next to it, and there is a separate hallway and a WC. Upstairs, a bright landing leads to two bedrooms with Versailles parquet flooring, a dressing room, a bathroom and a separate WC. The second floor is the attic level. It has its own landing and hallway and two f ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Dordogne stands on 7,500 m² of enclosed wooded grounds, a short walk from the centre of Piégut-Pluviers. It is a 1930s house of about 180 m² with three bedrooms, completely renovated in 2022. Most properties in this part of France make you choose. You get village life with neighbours on both sides, or you get seclusion with a ten-minute drive for bread. Here the shops and services are within walking distance, yet the garden is fenced, planted with trees and private. From the terrace the view runs out over the treetops of the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park. ### The 1930s House, Renovated in 2022 The house dates from the 1930s and offers roughly 180 m² of living space. The renovation in 2022 was complete, and the aim was to bring in modern comforts without losing the proportions and character of the original building. For a buyer, that is the point that matters most. The heavy work has been done, so you can spend your first summer using the house instead of managing a building site. There are three bedrooms and one bathroom, which suits a couple with guests or a small family. If you hope to host more people, the size of the house and plot leaves room to think about how you might use the space, though any alteration would of course need the usual checks. Outside, there is a balcony as well as the terrace. That gives you a choice between morning coffee in the sun and an evening drink looking into the trees. The condition is good, and the character of a 1930s house is still there. It is a different experience from a stone farmhouse, with a more formal shape and generous proportions. ### The 7,500 m² Wooded Grounds A plot of 7,500 m² is large by any standard, and it is rare to find one th ... click here to read more

This five-bedroom house for sale in Saint-Cyprien, Dordogne, sits on almost 5,000 m² of land with open views across the valley. Built in 1995 in the local Périgord style, it offers 174 m² of living space on two floors above a full basement, and the village shops are only a few minutes away. For a family home or a second home in France, that combination of space, land and easy daily errands is hard to find at this size. ### The House and Its 4,903 m² Plot You enter through a hall into a 42 m² living and dining room. An insert fireplace anchors the space, and a heat distribution system carries its warmth through the rest of the house, which counts for a lot during a Dordogne winter. The room opens onto a covered terrace facing the countryside, so breakfast outdoors in May works even if the weather turns. The kitchen measures 19 m², large enough to cook and eat in the same room. Also on the ground floor are a 13 m² bedroom, a family bathroom and a separate WC. That bedroom is handy for guests or relatives who would rather not climb stairs. Upstairs you find four more bedrooms of 12, 12, 14 and 19 m², plus a shower room and a second separate WC. Five bedrooms means two families can share the house without queuing for the one room they all want. The house has double glazing and enhanced insulation, and the condition is good. The full basement gives you storage or workshop space beneath the living areas. Outside, the plot of 4,903 m² is nearly half a hectare. That is plenty of room for privacy and a proper garden, but think about mowing and upkeep if you will be away for part of the year. ### Living in Saint-Cyprien and the Périgord Noir Saint-Cyprien lies on the Dordogne river in the Périgord Noir, between Sarlat-la-Ca ... click here to read more

This house for sale in Preignac, in the Sauternes wine country, looks straight over the vines of Château d'Yquem from a 1900 Girondine home with a pool. The village sits on the Garonne, a short drive from the Sauternes and Barsac vineyards and about 40 minutes from Bordeaux. The house has 200 m² of living space, four bedrooms and almost 2,000 m² of garden behind a gated entrance. It is in good condition, so you can move in and spend the first harvest season at the table, not on a building site. ### The House: 200 m² of Girondine Character Built in 1900, this is a traditional Gironde house, and it still looks the part. The ground floor keeps its original terracotta floor tiles, the kind you find in old village houses across the department, worn smooth and warm underfoot. Here you have a sitting room, a dining room and a kitchen, with a fireplace for the colder months when the vineyards are bare and the fog sits low over the Garonne. Upstairs are the four bedrooms, with two bathrooms in the house. The seller's description suggests the upper floor is flexible, with a possible fifth room, so it could take a home office or a studio if you only need three or four beds. For a family, that means space for children and visitors without anyone sleeping in the living room. ### Garden, Pool and 2,000 m² of Land The plot is close to 2,000 m² and includes mature trees, flowering shrubs and lawns. There is a swimming pool, and the terrace beside it faces the vineyard view, so that is where you will end up for most summer meals. Picture a late breakfast outside, with the rows of Sauternes vines in front of you and the pool still in shade. A garage of about 30 m² gives you covered parking and storage for bikes, garden tools or a f ... click here to read more

This restored 18th-century coaching inn is a three-bedroom house for sale in Corrèze, in the village of Segonzac, with a stone barn and 5,864 m² of land. Inside, a dining room fireplace and a multi-fuel stove in the living room set the tone for the 155 m² of living space. The restoration used quality natural materials and kept the character of the old building. The outbuildings give you room for projects of your own. ### Inside the Former Coaching Inn The ground floor is organised around the kitchen and dining room. The fitted kitchen opens straight onto the dining room, where a fireplace anchors the space. Think long lunches in autumn with the fire lit and the door to the garden left ajar. Next door, the living room has a multi-fuel fireplace, so winter evenings are covered. There are three bedrooms. The master has its own en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms share a separate shower room with WC, and there is also a second WC with a washbasin. A pantry takes care of storage for the kitchen. The windows are double-glazed aluminium, and fibre-optic internet is already installed. That matters if you plan to work remotely for part of the year. Above, the large attic is described as suitable for conversion. It could become extra bedrooms or a studio, subject to the usual structural checks and planning permission. ### Barn, Bread Oven and Vaulted Cellar on 5,864 m² The land is where this house stands apart from a typical village home. A 127 m² stone barn with a tiled roof stands nearby. It is a solid base for a workshop, covered storage, guest accommodation or a hobby space, depending on what you need and what permissions allow. Former stone pigsties of about 36 m² and a traditional bread oven add to the group of ... click here to read more

This restored farmhouse for sale in Haute-Vienne, at Saint-Bazile, has a separate guest cottage, a 10 x 5 m pool and about 2 hectares of land. The house dates from around 1650 and began life as a dairy farm. It has since been restored and is sold fully furnished, so the next owner can arrive with a suitcase and cook dinner the same evening. With 317 m² on two levels, five bedrooms and a self-contained cottage, it works as a large family home, a base for friends and relatives, or a second home in France that could also host paying guests. ### A Restored 17th-Century Dairy Farmhouse The thick stone walls are the first thing you notice, and they do real work: stone keeps the rooms cool in summer, and the attic is insulated, so the house is meant to be comfortable all year, not only in July. Many old farmhouses are not. On the ground floor there is a bright 24 m² living room and a separate, fully equipped kitchen, which means cooking and sitting down are not squeezed into one space. A guest suite with its own shower room and WC sits on this level too, handy for older relatives or anyone who prefers not to climb stairs. Upstairs you will find three further bedrooms, three shower rooms, a bathroom and five separate WCs. Nobody queues in the morning, even with a full house over the school holidays. ### The Guest Cottage: Space for Visitors or Rental The fifth bedroom is in a self-contained cottage on the ground floor, with its own shower room and kitchenette. Visitors can keep their own hours, and you keep your breakfast table to yourselves. It also gives the property flexibility as a holiday home in Limousin. You could host family for free, or offer the cottage to self-catering guests. Anyone planning regular rental sh ... click here to read more

On a still morning in the Aude countryside, you can step out onto the covered balcony with a coffee and hear almost nothing. A woodpigeon, maybe. The soft rush of the stream threading through the woodland at the bottom of the meadow. Then silence again—the particular silence of 2.8 hectares that belong entirely to you. This is Villebazy, a hamlet tucked into the rolling green hills of the Languedoc, and this four-bedroom villa is one of those rare finds that doesn't announce itself loudly. It doesn't need to. The distinctive Basque-influenced architecture—white rendered façades, deep red timberwork, wide roof overhangs—gives it a quiet confidence. It sits on its own land, properly private, with mature trees forming a natural boundary around the open meadow behind the house and a small woodland beyond that. No neighbours peering over the fence. No road noise. Just space. Inside, the ground floor is organised around a generous living and dining room of around 41 square metres. The wood-burning stove is the heart of this space in winter—the kind of feature that makes you genuinely want to spend January here rather than dreading it. The fitted kitchen sits alongside, compact but practical at around 12 square metres, with a door that opens straight outside. Easy enough to imagine carrying a glass of wine out to the terrace on a warm September evening. What gives this house a real practical edge is the ground-floor bedroom suite. At roughly 28 square metres, with built-in wardrobes and its own shower room and WC, it offers single-level living without compromise. For a family where grandparents visit, or for owners who eventually want to be here full-time without worrying about stairs, that's a consideration worth taking ser ... click here to read more

This five-bedroom house for sale in Seine-Maritime sits in Saint-Aubin-lès-Elbeuf, on a 3,012 m² enclosed plot, five minutes from the train station. It is described as a manor house, with 235 m² of living space, a south-facing terrace with a jacuzzi and a row of outbuildings that keep cars, bikes and tools out of the way. The condition is good, so the question here is less about renovation and more about how you want to use all that room. ### The House: A 25 m² Kitchen, Two Fireplaces and Five Bedrooms The ground floor starts with a wide entrance hall, with a large closet and a separate WC. It sounds like a small detail until a family comes in on a wet Normandy afternoon. The kitchen is the room most visitors will remember. It is fully fitted and equipped, and at about 25 m² it is big enough to cook and eat in at the same time. The utility room has a sink and a door straight onto the garden, which is handy for muddy boots and garden tools. There are two reception rooms, both generously proportioned. The living room has a fireplace insert, and the sitting room has its own fireplace. In a region with a mild but often damp oceanic climate, that gives you two ways to take the chill off an evening. Upstairs, three good-sized bedrooms occupy the first floor, including a master suite with a dressing room. The house has five bedrooms in total. The data shows a single bathroom, so check on your visit whether that suits the way your household lives. ### Garden, Terrace and Outbuildings The plot covers 3,012 m². It is landscaped and fully enclosed, which matters if you have children or dogs, or simply like the idea of closing the gate and knowing the grounds are your own. The large south-facing terrace with a jacuzzi catches ... click here to read more

Early on a Tuesday morning in late September, the village of Soulignac is still quiet. Mist sits low across the Monbazillac vineyards just below the ridge line, and through the east-facing kitchen window, the light comes in long and golden. The coffee is on. The pool is still. And there's nowhere you need to be. That's the pace of life this six-bedroom house in the heart of Périgord offers. It's a substantial family property — roomy, grounded, and genuinely well kept — sitting on nearly 3,000 square metres of land in one of Southwest France's most sought-after pockets, minutes from Bergerac and the rolling appellations of Monbazillac wine country. The house was originally built in 1975 and extended in 1997, and it shows the kind of evolution that happens when a family actually lives in a place and adapts it thoughtfully. The bones are solid. The interior condition is excellent. At 133 square metres of listed living space, with a total footprint of 208 square metres, there's room here for extended family gatherings, long summers with friends rotating in and out, or a future chambres d'hôtes project — the six bedrooms make that last possibility genuinely viable without a major renovation effort. The 32-square-metre living room anchors the ground floor, centred on a fireplace insert that takes the edge off cool autumn evenings when you're not quite ready to leave after the August rush. The kitchen is fully fitted and independent — a proper working kitchen, not a galley squeezed into a corner — and there's a dedicated office, utility room, and laundry-boiler room that make this work as a real residence rather than just a holiday bolt-hole. Two shower rooms, two bathrooms, three WCs. An attic and a cellar. It's a house tha ... click here to read more

Saturday morning in Issigeac. You push open the tall wooden shutters and the air hits you — warm, faintly earthy, carrying the smell of bread baking somewhere down the lane. The weekly market is already humming three minutes away in the medieval bastide, where local farmers spread out their walnuts, foie gras, and strawberries on trestle tables under stone arcades that have stood since the 13th century. This is your kitchen view. This is your Saturday. Set on the quiet edge of one of the Dordogne's most characterful bastide villages, this single-level house of 210 square metres sits on just over a hectare of private land — roughly 11,439 square metres of lawn, mature trees, and absolute silence. No neighbours visible. No road noise. Just you, a sun-warmed pool, and the rolling Périgord hills in every direction. The layout is genuinely clever. A 67-square-metre living room is the kind of space that earns its size — high enough to feel airy, wide enough to seat a crowd, and oriented to pull the garden right into the room through large glazed openings. It flows directly into a kitchen and dining area of 45 square metres, which is not a galley afterthought but a real room where you can cook a cassoulet and have four people around the island at the same time. The two bedrooms and two bathrooms — one full bathroom, one shower room — are arranged to give guests genuine privacy. There is also an independent studio on the property, which is the kind of bonus that makes all the difference: a teenager's retreat, a home office, or a self-contained space for the friends who always stay a week longer than planned. The 55-square-metre garage adjoins a barn, which sits at the edge of the plot near the village boundary. It is practica ... click here to read more

Saturday morning in Nans-les-Pins starts with the smell of warm bread drifting from the boulangerie on Rue de la Mairie, the distant thwack of a golf shot from the fairway beyond the treeline, and a coffee on your own sun-soaked terrace while the Massif de la Sainte-Baume glows gold above the village. This is not a postcard. This is Tuesday. This is your ordinary life, if you own this three-bedroom house at Le Jardin du Golf. Set on a generous 859 m² plot within one of Provence's most quietly coveted residential estates, this detached two-storey home gives you 130 m² of well-maintained living space and a wraparound garden that earns its keep across every season. The lavender hums with bees in July. By October, the oaks are copper and the air has that dry, resinous edge that Provence does better than anywhere in Europe. You don't need to be here full-time to feel like you belong here — but you'll want to be. The layout is genuinely practical, which matters more than most listings admit. Downstairs, the main living area is broad and light-filled, with large doors that fold open onto the garden so the inside and outside stop feeling like separate decisions. The kitchen sits directly off the living room — no awkward corridor, no shouting through walls when dinner's almost ready. Critically for anyone hosting older relatives or guests who'd rather skip the stairs, there's a full bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor. That's a flexibility that most houses this size don't offer, and it extends the usability of the property across generations. Upstairs, two further bedrooms share a landing bathroom and both get good morning light. One works naturally as the main bedroom, the other as a guest room or home office — the kind ... click here to read more

Sunday morning. You're standing on the covered terrace with a coffee, watching mist lift off the Corrèze hills, the silence broken only by birdsong and the distant toll of bells from the village church. The southeast-facing garden is already catching the early sun. This is not a fantasy—it's a Tuesday in July at Route de Bernoux, and it happens to be yours. Chauffour-sur-Vell sits in one of France's least-discovered corners, and that's exactly the point. The Corrèze département doesn't chase tourists. It doesn't need to. The rolling green hills, the walnut orchards, the limestone villages with their rust-red rooftops—this is the France that most people only read about in novels. And this four-bedroom detached house, set on just over 4,100 square metres of garden, drops you right into the middle of it. The house itself is solid. Double cavity walls, double glazing, an insulated roof—the bones are there, and the condition is genuinely good. You're not walking into a renovation project that quietly reveals a decade of surprises. At 161 square metres of living space spread across three levels, there's room to breathe, room to host, and room to carve out your own daily rhythms without bumping into anyone else. Walk in through the entrance hall and you land in the main living room, anchored by an open fireplace. Come November, when the Corrèze rains roll in and the chestnut trees strip bare, that fireplace isn't decorative—it's the reason everyone ends up on that sofa. The adjoining kitchen handles the everyday: meal prep, morning coffee, the chaos of a family breakfast. One bedroom and a bathroom sit on this floor too, which matters if you ever want to host guests or family members who'd rather avoid stairs. Upstairs, two ... click here to read more

Sunday morning in Ouroux-sur-Saône has a particular quality to it. The wood-burning stove is already ticking with warmth, the smell of coffee drifts through a 48-square-meter living room that once watched over harvests two centuries ago, and through the French doors at the back of the house, the garden is doing that golden early-autumn thing that Burgundy does better than almost anywhere in France. This is not a renovation project. This is a farmhouse that has already been loved back to life — and now it's waiting for the next chapter. Built in the 1800s and sitting on a plot of over eight hectares, this four-bedroom property near the Saône-et-Loire heartland gives you something increasingly rare: genuine scale, genuine character, and genuine countryside — all within fifteen kilometers of Chalon-sur-Saône, where the Saturday market on the Place Saint-Vincent has been running for centuries and the restaurants along the Saône do things with Bresse chicken and local Époisses that will recalibrate your standards permanently. Step inside and the ground floor sets the tone immediately. The entrance hall opens into that vast living room with its wood-burning stove and direct garden access — the kind of room that earns its square footage on a wet November afternoon when you're opening a Givry rouge and watching the last light fall across the fields. The kitchen, famously converted from a bread oven, still has that deep-walled, slightly theatrical atmosphere that makes cooking feel like an event rather than a chore. There's a separate sitting room too, its French doors opening onto both the rear garden and the front terrace, so the morning sun follows you from one side to the other depending on the season. A 25-square-meter gro ... click here to read more

Stand on the kitchen terrace on a Tuesday morning and you can already smell the bread from the boulangerie two streets down in Cerdon. The hills of the Ain department roll away in front of you — forested ridges, limestone cliffs, the faint shimmer of the Rhône valley glinting somewhere between the trees. This isn't a postcard. It's Tuesday. This is just what it looks like from your terrace. Set in the hills above the small town of Cerdon in the Ain department of Rhône-Alpes, this seven-bedroom stone house sits on 2,408 square metres of land and spreads across 288 square metres of living space. At 359,000 euros, that works out to considerably less per square metre than comparable properties in the Dordogne or Provence — and the lifestyle on offer here is arguably richer. The Ain has a way of flying under the radar, which suits its residents just fine. The house itself is built in the sturdy local style — thick stone walls that keep rooms cool in July and hold heat through the sharp November nights. Step inside and the layout reveals a property that has been genuinely thought through for real life, not just for a sales brochure. The ground floor holds the main living quarters: a 26-square-metre sitting room, a generous dining room just over 20 square metres, a fitted kitchen with direct access to the terrace, a bedroom, a dressing room, and a shower room. The entrance hall alone runs to nearly 29 square metres, which sets the tone — this is not a house where you're squeezing past each other. Upstairs, six more bedrooms fan out across the landing, ranging from a cosy 10 square metres to a proper 19.5-square-metre room that could easily become a guest suite with its own character. There's a second shower room and a separa ... click here to read more

Sunday morning in Cheilly-les-Maranges moves at its own pace. The kitchen window is open, coffee is on, and through the covered terrace door you can already smell the damp earth rising off the vines on the hillside not 200 meters away. This is Burgundy — not the postcard version, the real one — and this 1800s stone house sits right in the middle of it. Built when Napoleon III was still rearranging Europe, this four-bedroom home on a generous 1,508 square meter enclosed plot has grown into its age gracefully. The bones are solid, the proportions are generous, and the condition throughout is genuinely good — no gutting required, no years of project-managing contractors from abroad. You arrive, you unpack, and you start living. That's rarer than it sounds at this price point in the Côte de Beaune. The ground floor opens into a 30-square-meter living room with the kind of ceiling height that makes you instinctively exhale. The equipped kitchen — 10.6 square meters, compact but well-organized — connects directly to the covered terrace. That terrace is going to become your default dining room from April through October. Lunch under the overhang when it rains, dinner outside when the evenings stretch golden and warm. The 15-square-meter office sits off the main hall, making this a genuinely workable remote working base, not just a holiday fantasy. Fast rural internet has come a long way in Saône-et-Loire. Upstairs, the four bedrooms range from 13 to 18 square meters — real rooms, not glorified cupboards. One comes with its own en-suite shower room. The additional full bathroom and two separate WCs mean four adults sharing the house can actually manage mornings without negotiation. The garage and outbuildings out back give yo ... click here to read more

This farmhouse for sale in Dordogne, in Busserolles in the Périgord Vert, comes with more than 5 hectares of land and a 233 m² barn. The asking price is €134,300, which is a lot of ground and building for the money. The trade-off is plain: the stone house needs complete renovation, from the roof down. If you want a long project with room to spread out, this is the kind of space that rarely turns up at this price in southwest France. ### The Stone House and What It Needs The main house is a 121 m² stone building. It is a shell with good bones, not a home you can move into and tidy up over a summer. The work list is long and the seller is upfront about it: the roof has to be replaced completely, the interior needs a full renovation, a bathroom has to be installed and a septic tank has to be put in. That is a big job, but it is also a clean slate. You decide where the kitchen goes, how the rooms flow and how much of the old stone stays exposed. Get quotes from local artisans before you make an offer, and ask the mairie what is permitted for the plot. Budgeting properly at the start is what separates a happy renovation from a stalled one. ### The Barn, Old Pigsties and 51,384 m² of Land Attached to the house is a 233 m² barn, nearly twice the footprint of the house itself. Buyers could convert it into extra living space, fit it out as stables or keep it as a workshop. Any change of use needs planning permission, so check with the local authorities first. Outside, you will find former pigsties and a well. The land runs to 51,384 m², just over five hectares, with a garden area and open ground that could take grazing animals, a vegetable plot or a slow return to wild meadow. The views across the rolling Dordogne countrys ... click here to read more

This four-bedroom house for sale in Charente sits on 1,650 m² of private garden in Écuras, a short drive from Montbron. It is a detached family home of 142 m² in good condition, with two bathrooms, covered terraces and a place inside a quiet, green residential park. At €191,300 it gives a family, or two families sharing, a lot of room for the money. ### The House: 142 m² for Family and Guests The layout is built around shared time. A large living room runs into the dining area, and the fully equipped kitchen sits alongside. French doors from the living space open straight onto the terrace, so in summer the line between inside and outside mostly disappears. Lunch moves out without anyone carrying much. Upstairs and around the house there are four bedrooms, two of them very large. Two bathrooms mean a full house does not turn into a queue every morning. There is also a balcony, handy for a coffee before anyone else is up. The condition is good, so you can arrive, unpack and spend your first weeks using the place instead of fixing it. ### Garden, Terraces and the Pool The plot measures 1,650 m² and is lined with mature trees, which gives the garden real privacy from neighbours. That is not easy to find at this price. The terraces are partly covered, so an evening meal does not depend on the weather, and there is a built-in barbecue for long summer dinners. The property data lists a swimming pool. The Le Chat park around the house also has two pools of its own, so ask us to confirm whether a pool sits on this plot or whether you would use the park facilities. It changes the running costs and the upkeep, so it is worth knowing before you visit. ### Living Next to Le Chat Park in Écuras The house borders Le Chat Park, ... click here to read more
