WHAT A BARGAIN!
he cover of the last issue of FPN really caught my eye. The stone-built, blue-
Karen's Friday bargain: "Just €66,600 for this characterful two-bedroom cottage in Charente. Renovated and ready to move into, it's in a friendly little hamlet, rurally located but just a 10-minute drive to the two pretty towns of Chabanais and Confolens. An ideal lock-up-and-leave holiday home."
Teresa Leonie Krijger Hoff mann: Love the look of this place
Donna Lloyd: I want it please
McGill Rodolfo: So charming and cosy
shuttered property on the cover is exactly what I’ve been dreaming of owning for years. But it was the coverline that really grabbed my attention – I couldn’t believe that this pretty cottage in Dordogne – fully renovated too with gorgeous character features – was for sale for just €77,000! Realising how aff ordable my dream could be, it’s reinvigorated my property hunt, which I
must admit had dropped off of late. Browsing through the listings on websites like
FrancePropertyShop.com and
FrenchEntree.com revealed a surprising choice of properties under my budget of €100,000 in my favourite areas of Brittany and southwest France. Denise S. We fell in love with that cottage too Denise, but there are lots more remarkably cheap properties available in France, especially if you’re willing to do a bit of work – keep an eye out for my ‘Friday bargains’ on our
