This quaint quirky home in France has three bedrooms and two bathrooms it’s beautifully renovated and has a large yard what I like most about it is the cost which is just 8,460 in this video I’ll show you this property and two more and they’re all priced at under
€100,000 I’ll also tell you about this crazy network of over 24,000 kmet of canals that are nearby they call this place the green Venice you’ll see all the details so keep watching hi if we haven’t met I’m Tommy from travel.com if you dream of having your own place in
Italy or France you should join me and over 3,000 others over at travel.com today we’re in the department of the DU SE it’s near the Southwest coast of France just north of Bordeaux and Southwest of Paris the beautiful Seaside town of l r roelle is very close
By and it’s only about a 2-hour high-speed train ride to get from Paris to potier before I tell you about that crazy network of canals let’s go take a look at the first property this first property is located in a small Hamlet very close to the town of Val dummin the
Drive to get to the town of L relle is under 40 minutes the property has three bedrooms and one bathroom and a nice privacy gate in case you wanted to make this a lock up and leave before we look at all the property photos let me show
You some of the amenities that are in the area there are many restaurants in this area the closest one it looks like is 3 minute drive by car the closest bar is about 7 minutes away and I see a pizza takeout place that’s just 11 minutes away of course if you drove the
40 minutes to get over to L roelle you have a ton more choices for restaurants it looks like a lot of them right around the harbor and I also notice there is an airport located there just north of RA relle although there’s no grocery store in the small
Hamlet where the property is located there are some supermarkets a fairly short driveway including a leadle which is 7 minutes by car and an intermar which is just 10 minutes by car there are several hospitals many of them within a 30-minute drive and the closest
Is in neor which is a larger City just to the north and that hospital is just 2 4 minutes away I’m going to tell you about that crazy network of canals in just a minute but first let’s go look at the property photos for this first property I think this property
Definitely needs a good bit of renovation but as you’ll see it does have good bones here’s that view again from the street just outside you have this nice privacy wall with a gated entrance to get into where the car would be parked it does come with a decent
Sized yard in the back and you can see there’s an outbuilding there uh storage building as you can see it definitely is in need of some repair I would definitely take all these walls down probably repaint the ceiling the original tiles it looks like you could probably just polish them to bring them
Back to life here’s another one with you can see aging wallpaper that would need to be taken down but some beautiful wood floors again they just need some TLC sand them down and refinish them I bet they would look like new here is one of the bedrooms you can again in need of
Some TLC but I do like those two twin bed wood frames those are beautiful these nice large Windows bring in a lot of natural light which is always nice I hope you would be able to keep that little trim area up on the top uh the
Edge of the roof there it looks very beautiful if you could repaint that and the listing does say this is a stone house so in some areas you may be able to pull away this plaster and expose some of that natural Stone just to get that rustic French look this is in the
Backyard also and it looks like they built on a little sun room and this is a secondary gate so this is obviously not the front gate that we saw so you’d have another access point to bring stuff in or maybe convert this into some kind of usable space this
Next property is listed for just 88,000 but before we go look at it let’s go figure out what that weird network of canal was these tens of thousands of kilometers of canals are part of a regional Nature Park called La I found the official website for the
Park which I will put down in the description there are various places along the canal where you can either have a guided boat tour or you can rent a boat and do it yourself it also looks like there are many many miles of bike trails that go throughout this canal system here’s one
Spot along the canals where you can see there are dozens of tour boats ready and there is accommodation restaurants and shopping available also this next property which is listed for 88,000 is located in the small town of Nuvi buan which is further north in the doev now let’s look at some nearby
Amenities like the other property there are several restaurants nearby including one that is just a 4-minute walk from the property there are several hospitals near this property also including a general hospital about 40 minutes away and a university hospital in pitier which is an hour and 15 minutes away as
Far as activities just a 20 minute drive to the north is the small quaint town of bre where you find this beautiful Chateau that that’s been built on the ruins of an old castle on Google Street View you can see the castle chatau up on
The top of this Overlook and if I move up just a couple of clicks there’s actually a Green Way path here that looks like it runs for many miles along this small Creek also in the same town I discovered this place called the little Brewer optit
Brur and it looks like a great place to stop off they have a happy hour outside they serve food and maybe have music on the weekends and it’s built in the old train station and you can see this old train car on the right hand side over
Here you can actually stay here and sleep in one of the old sleeper cars now let’s go look at the property photos of this second property this property has a nice little gravel Courtyard in front with an old well you can see they have a table and chairs set out here it looks
Like a great spot to sit out when the weather is nice like the last property there’s also a fence SL wall with a gate to get in so you have a little bit of privacy and right across the street from the property you can see it’s just open Countryside while this property also
Probably needs some updates it’s in much better shape than that first property I would say this one is ready to be lived in and you can just renovate or upgrade as you went along here’s the living room and you see the classic giant stone fireplace that a lot of these properties
Have and the people obviously converted it into a wood burning stove so that the house is not filled with smoke all the time here is one of two bedrooms and you can see it is in great shape I don’t know if the furniture is included but the condition of the room looks very
Good and by the way this is listed as a two-bedroom two bath property for 88,000 here’s another room that looks like they have set up with twin beds I don’t know if this is one of the two bedrooms they’re talking about or if this is just another space that they
Converted into a bedroom because this is not the same as those twin beds we just saw so maybe this is actually the bedroom and they were just using the other space it’s almost like a landing at the top of the stairs as a bedroom the bathroom looks a little old but
Again functional and again for something that you’re buying for 88,000 I would just want something that is usable I can get into and decide what areas I wanted to renovate and what to start with over time here’s just another view of that little Courtyard in front
Of the place I’m pretty sure at least part of that stone building straight ahead is included with this property but that would be something we would need to clarify with the real estate agent all right if you thought that property was nice I really think you’re going to
Enjoy this third property so let’s go take a look all right all right this third property is located in the extreme southern tip of the duv region which means it’s very close to the towns of Cognac and angulam which are just two terrific cities to visit while this
Third property is very rural it does have an easy access to shopping centers and grocery stores nearby including an inter Marche which is just an 11-minute drive as a wine lover one thing I like about the fact that this one is in the very southern tip of the doev is you’re
Not too far from at least a dozen or more wineries that you could go visit another benefit of being closer to larger cities like Cognac and angulam is you also have access to the much larger hospitals that are available there this is the one in Cognac and it is 54
Minutes away and the main hospital in angulam is 57 minutes away and a looks like the closest 24-hour hospital is in ruek which is just 30 minutes away now let’s go have a look at the property photos you’ll see that the real estate agent must have done a lot of work on
This property because it has been staged and prepared very well a lot of times in these property photos for both France and Italy you’ll see Just Junk lying around and I think wouldn’t wouldn’t you just take like 20 minutes to at least like put stuff in a closet anyway I’m let me get
Off my soap box so here’s the shot from the yard and just like the other two it has a gated um surrounding so you do have some privacy to get in and some some nice usable space outside and here’s a further look from that gate I mentioned with this nice gravel walkway
You have a nice big tree in the front yard and I see a swing on the tree there so again great little area to relax if you were going to um maybe rent this out as a holiday place you could probably put a hot tub or or do something else in
This front yard to make it more attractive for renters here’s the kitchen and you can see it has been renovated very nicely um I love these little hanging lights over the uh bar and everything looks nice and clean very organized and here’s the living room/ sitting room in that lower area and I’m
Guessing that’s the front door um that we were looking at from the yard before here are the stairs going up and you can see the stairs have either been completely refinished or they’re fairly new that left wall too you can see the stone again this is a stone property
With some of it exposed there which I just love that look upstairs I’m not sure what you might use this room for um it could be an office um it’s got these exposed wooden beams which again is just a classic French architecture thing which is beautiful but but sometimes can
Make the rooms a little less usable but again very classic look here is one of the three bedrooms that are listed yeah it’s listed as a three-bedroom two- bath property here is one B again beautifully done looks like a nice new tub you potentially could put a shower in here
But I’m guessing because of the slope of the roof maybe that just wasn’t practical here is another bedroom obviously they have it set up as a kids bed with twin beds but again plenty of space you could probably fit a full maybe a queen-size bed in there if you
Push it against one wall and here’s the front yard again looking from the property out to where we um started with the photos lot of nice space walls on both sides and a fence out there by the street and you can see they have a little wooden patio uh picnic area here
Already ready for you and again this third property is listed for just over 90 8,000 by the way if you want to see another cheap house you should watch this video right now

First! Great job Tommy!
Excellent video. We are looking to retire in France or Spain. I wonder what the monthly electric bill would be for a rural home like this one? I've read that in Italy monthly costs could be more than $300. Is that true in France? Thank you!
I think you're right if the house is livable, its best to move in first and let the house reveal to you what needs attention.
Very impressive finds. All three have charm and character.
Lots of potential in all three. My only concern with these and other places near rivers and canals is the risk of flooding. France has had a few catastrophic flooding events in recent years so I'd be having a very close look at the historical data on weather events before buying.
Glad to see there are still opportunities for less than 100.000€ 🎉🎉🎉
Love those twin beds…
Great selections Tommy. The first place reminds me of what Billy Bob Thornton said about being afraid of antique furniture because those beds look real creepy! Yeah, but Deux Sevres is pretty special. Have you looked at Annecy yet?
Cheers!
