| CHATEAUX
BY FRENCH CANALS has been conceived and developed from nearly forty years’ of experience in
designing, building, restoring and operating canal boats, barge-yachts and French country estates for the discerning and demanding owner. Our boating links mean that most of the properties that are brought to our attention are near water
Francophile Royalty, Oscar winners and multi-billionaires have all commissioned us to assist with the acquisition of their
dream home. Our reputation and expertise have given us what is possibly the most complete address book in the potential minefield that is the French Property Market - French inheritance laws have been described as ‘unusual’.

At each stage we are able to put our clients in touch with recognised and reputable professionals and experts. If we do not have a suitable property on our books, we probably know someone who has it on theirs. We also have a complete mountain village in excellent condition, an ancient brewery needing ideas and energy, and an equestrian centre that is complete with indoor and
outdoor manéges. We have many châteaux, manoirs and belles
demeures that are not apparent on our web-site. |

| This is usually for reasons of security - our
propriétaires invariably live in rural locations. They often live alone, are frequently elderly, and sometimes
surrounded by cherished and invaluable heirlooms that are part of the rich
patrimoine of France. Such owners often feel that it is their right to vet potential buyers. Usually these owners cannot accept that an appropriate
chatelain(e) would respond to a photograph and details distributed on the World Wide Web. We are happy to concur with their wishes, and
keep details of their properties on old-fashioned paper. Please ask us for details of such properties (or any others that we may not yet have displayed on our web-site). |
