After more years and price reductions than I care to think we have at last sold and house and gites - well fingers still crossed, a bit!
At the moment we are looking for somewhere to live. We think we would like: somewhere near the sea and perhaps Bordeaux; 3 beds 1 at least downstairs as I'm no longer a spring lamb and office/small maison des amis; barn; 1/2 acre garden; not too isolated. Budget not too much over 200k euros. It's a long shot but maybe you know just the place for our new life.
Many thanks. We will respond to everyone but are trying to get all the spring chores/gites ready, so may take a little time. diana

Hi Diana,
I've got a property for sale ( succession) on the Bassin d'Arcachon, in a village with all amenities:
it is a large house ; there is the main house + an independent flat; needs renovating
the land is being divided in 2 plots, but can be sold as a whole.
let me know if you are interested
I can make you visit on Monday afternoon if you wish. Otherwise, organize an appointment.
My friend is probably selling exactly what you are after! Its in the south Charente Maritime, 45 mins north of Bordeaux, 5 mins from the coast but in an inland hamlet, a few mins to village with all amenities. There a two properties on the plot, giving 3 bedrooms, both very comfortably renovated and well within the price bracket you mention. If this area interests you, we can look at ways for you to contact her.
