My wife's French and we're looking to move over there in the next 3 to 5 years so we watch a boat load of French property shows, with the favourite being chasseurs d'appart. Everything is about practicality no one gives a flying fuck about period features if it comes with the compromise of space and if it doesn't have a walk in wardrobe you can really get to fuck!

My parents had a little place in France they used to go to 6months on 6 months off (pre brexit) . Lovely garden etc in the Loire valley but when my dad sold it after my mum died it was a real struggle to even get viewings.
Most local younger people were snapping up new builds( not like uk shit ones) and weren’t interested in older (small)properties.
Was a lovely pace of life ( if you were retired)
