Maverick, dead jealous its something I yearn to do. For those of you who came to Le Mans this year, Mike (beardy MG driver) has just completed his move to France. 5 beds period farmhouse, 8 acres all up together and ready to move in, multiple out buildings and sheds, 1 mile from a small town north of Le Mans, under £100k including the notaire taxes, its criminal.

Council tax is something silly like £700 for the year too

 

[dem maser]

100k??

That dont get you a studio here......

 

[NickP]

Are we crashing his next year then Matt?

 

[Parisien]

French have living sussed....but many other difficulties unless fluent and very patient! Fair enough as weekend retreats/holiday homes, but I suspect for lots off this forum...the pace of life and what not get up to might finish you off!!!!

Arh, French wife comes in handy than and its purely a holiday home and let , hopeing to retire to or at least a base for when we sell up and build out dream home in France . 10 year plan .investing now while prices are cheep because the market is starting to pick up now in France .

[Parisien]
