The cheapest property in France – but for how long?

Property prices have, in fact, been rising steadily over the last 5 years, especially for attractive stone properties with demand far outstripping supply. However, at the moment barns in need of complete renovatio and with some land, cost around 50,000 Euros. Village houses with no outside space (ideal lock up and leave holiday homes) can be bought for an average price of 70,000 Euros whilst the sought after 3 bedroom renovated stone cottage with a garden in a convenient location will cost around 160,000 to 180,000 Euros. A tip here – if you manage to find one at this price, don’t think about it for too long as it seems nearly everyone wants one of these. Character properties with land will cost around 250,000 Euros plus.
