If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

What is happening to property prices in chic Provence? Well it seems according to the Daily Telegraph that demand is still high in the chic coastal resorts such as St Tropez.

One estate agent reports "feverish demand" for apartments and beach houses below €20 million (£17m) in the area – not from Russians but French, Italian and even English families looking for a second home in a quality location".

    French Barns – still less than 20,000 pounds

    Is it the gobal financial crisis or is France still one of the top places for cheap barns? We think so!

    This barn situated in Poitou Charentes is certainly not a project for the faint-hearted but it could make a charming home and sits just a couple of minutes from the bustling town of Bussiere Poitevine with all your basic shops.

    Situated at the end of a lane, it is a very quiet spot and the barn measures approximately 150m2 at floor level. A CU (change of usage) has been granted previously but this has now expired so it would need to be re-applied for but this can easily be done as part of the sale process.

    And the price: 20,800 euros !!

    How much? Rural French Charm at 14,000 pounds sterling

    They do not come any cheaper than this! Hit by the credit squeeze – cannot afford a mortgage? Then here is this month’s bargain property – scratch that this year’s bargain property.

    Well OK – it does need a wee bit of work but hey the walls are structurally sound.

    As they say “bags of potential with rustic charm”. This is NOT bijoux – you would have a blank canvas with this property. Let your imagination run wild.

    Located in the Champagne-Ardenne region of France close to the vineyards of Champage and Burgundy. After a few glasses you will forget all that renovation work.
