You were meant to buy and lovingly restore this chateau. The previous owners couldn’t be more grateful for you.
The fact that you don’t come from money but making your dream come true through hard work, perseverance, intelligence and natural charm is even more intriguing.
May your channel grow consistently and large to help provide funds for the restoration.
Many blessings to you and your family.
Having a house like this is always strange to me. You constantly need to have people around you. You basically have a 24/7 staff working on the grounds and in the house, and someone has to manage them all. Then there is privacy... It looks amazing but I often wonder how people deal with that (especially introverts).
The castle couldn't have gotten a better new owner! It's amazing to see with how much dedication, ideas research and passion you treat this wonderful castle 🏰
BEST WISHES TO YOU
Danke

Jesus Christ Died for the sin of the World, If you believe in ur heart God risen Jesus from the dead and confess him with ur mouth to people you shall be saved. Jesus said I Am The only way to heaven there is no other way!

Romans 3:23 For all have sined and felt short of the Glory of God. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Romans 1:18-21, 23 KJV Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 REPENT OR YOU WILL PERISH REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL GET RIGHT WITH GOD LORD JESUS CHRIST.
I think what happened with Château de Dampierre unfortunately happens with many old estates - the descendants die off or eventually run out of money to properly upkeep it, so it falls into disrepair and even ruin and the lands and buildings are sold off. If they're lucky, a man like you buys them! Someone who is committed to seeing the property restored to its former historical glory. Thank goodness this place wasn't left to ruin, or worse, demolished. Thanks for the financial overview, Antoni!
So appreciate your transparency on the costs! I know it’s not always easy to discuss these things. Loved your story of the auction! Would love to know what you set as a restoration budget as that will normally surpass the initial cost of buying the chateau. Thanks for being on UA-cam and sharing your magnificent home
I agree with the others….it was meant to be. Thank you for being so honest. 😊
Wow - I'm staggered. We've just spent roughly the equivalent of €1M (about AUD$1.5M) renovating our home in Sydney when we could have moved to France and lived it up in a chateau with 40 rooms! Seriously - thank you for breaking the taboo and sharing this with us. I would never have imagined such a low entry price, at least compared to Sydney prices. Perhaps we can broaden the scope of our planned move to the country in the next 10 years or so. Well done and cheers from (expensive) Australia - David
Yeah you could but why would you want to live in a chateau with 40 rooms? Thats probably the last thing I want.
@@fh2234 Absolutely. BIt of tongue-in-cheek there. After our renovation (nothing like 40 rooms!), we're not going anywhere soon.
@@deldridg I am from Europe and I would love to live in Australia. People like the things they dont have access to somehow.
@@fh2234 The grass is always greener on the other side, as they say. However, it's certainly not true in reality (most of the time). I'm lucky to have seen much of the world and am very happy with my lot in life. Perhaps you could visit this lovely country of ours. 🙂
not only that, as an architect I know this Castle in a "livible" quality will cost multymillions. I am from Germany and I have expandet three mansions. 1000 Squaremeter 6 Mio. This property is so big, you need personal to clean it... @@deldridg
It is insane how many Castles actually exist in France. Standing castles with private residencies and historic ruins make up about 45.000 in total which is the most amount in the World. Absolutely insane! No wonder France is such a prominent country when it comes to them and inspired so many authors and directors. Countless of books and movies took inspiration even Disney. I was there myself and couldn't believe how stunning so many of them looked and how good the condition of a lot of them is. What's more is the amount of details they put into them like their vast gardens, furniture and so much more. So much beauty and elegance. I really like how the french like you buy them and renovate them but also want to preserve their history. Architecture like this would otherwise slowly vanish and be forgotten. You gained knowledge before buying this chateau and this is clearly visible in all of your videos so I'm glad someone like you acquired it. Many unfortunately just buy and don't respect the history behind it and just change everything. You are an amazing person and I only ever wish you the very best in your new beautiful chateau Antoni 😊❤
Though i guess not all have this size? Many Domaine's just look like villa's. Or do i make a mistake qualifying those as chateau's?
It is not just like in France it is like all across in Europe. All of them are under protection so you can’t just change everything on these buildings. The ownership is comes with an obligation towards the government to restore the building and it’s surroundings.The sale prices may feels low but the renovation costs are enormous not to mention the maintance costs and the utility bills. Here in Hungary we have countless castles and mansions like this. I actually live like 150 meter away from one. I saw it neglecting through decades because nobody has wanted it, then finally someone came and saved it. It’s got restored and repurposed as an event facility. Weddings, classical concerts and other cultural activities happening now in there. Just a few examples what you can find here or on google. Festetics palace, castle of Tura, Esterházy castle of Fertõd and so on. Take a look at these buildings if you have time. I promise it’s worth it.
For your general knowledge, France has the most castles in the world but the country with the most per square kilometre is Belgium! :)
@@sandrarodrigueencourt2634 I live in Belgium and I have heard of this statistic also - however, I am puzzled by it because I feel I see many more castles driving through France than what I see driving through small Belgium.
@@sandrarodrigueencourt2634i think it’s Wales actually 😊
Wow! That's a great story of the auction. It's incredible that chateaux can be so relatively low-priced when the cost to build one new would be so very high. Yours is beautiful!
Glad you were able to get the chateau for a good price
And hearing this is why we chose to live in Nice in an apartment and go out often to eat , have coffee, and hit the beach. Yes, it was a dream to live in a Chateaux ,also but after seeing costs and time it humbled us!
I am happy that you are treating this project respectfully and gently. Bon chance mon ami!
675k euro? Wow that’s incredible. Good for you for restoring it and thank you for giving the straight numbers.
I am so happy for you that you were able to purchase the chateau for such a great price! It sounds like the real cost is in the restoration. This house is very lucky you came along! I love that you are so particular with your design and restoration decisions.
Antoni, thank you for providing that information on the economics of purchasing and renovating your chateau. Was curious what your long-term plans are, i.e., whether you will live there, use it as a museum or perhaps as an AIrbnb? Based on the work you have done on the gate houses, it is clear that the quality of the work is top notch!
The Château is in very good hands! I hope you can somehow develop a good relationship with the family (or some family members) who sold the lands and the buildings so that historical significances can be documented and the correct records maintained. Beautiful work so far, thanks for your dedication!
Thank you for being so transparent about the upfront cost. The acquiring costs are a one-time cost, as well as big renovations (at least for a couple of generations). I am more interested in the yearly running costs. You talked briefly about the people working around the chateau but there is also heating, electricity, maintenance work and many more hidden costs. Do you budget these? If so, how much do you budget on a yearly basis. Thanks again for being so open, really helps to map out a future project for myself !
I’d estimate for the size of the chateau’s curtilage, and regular landscaping about $50k, but maintenance depends on the final renovation’s condition and ongoing consumption costs (assuming that it’s primarily heated/cooled via electrical utilities) at least another $15k (possibly much more).
@@DrMJJr Yeah, there's a reason no one wants to buy these homes - they are a money pit. It's why they have to be sold in the first place, and for so little (my 1 bed apartment in London is worth almost as much as his buying price). You will never be able to resell it for what you put into it. So preservation and conversion into a historic monument is probably the only option, with a guest housing if the location is desirable. Watching people supposedly with relatively little cash buy these properties leaves me with mixed feelings.
Are people interested in knowing the cost? Duh, it's continuously on my mind when I watch the work that has been done and the work that still needs to be done.
Amazing! You won that auction for the same price as a really boring home in America. There are so many homes in my town for this price and it is not nearly as beautiful as anywhere in France. I hope to come back someday. Let us all know when you have any gites or rooms ready for rental! Happy renovations!
The video was very interesting. The price you paid for the chateau was amazing. A home in the U.S. cost over $600,000 dollars, and there is no comparison to a chateau. The renovation for the Chatelet is expensive and I’m not sure the amount of renovation required in the chateau. The renovations thus far are very good quality. Take care, Ralph Rocchiccioli
Functionally also there's not much practical value on owning one, is not rare either. Kinda like expensive hobby, require lot of expenses to restore and mantain it.
Thank you for sharing so much and being so transparent.
Holy shit! I assumed it would have been in the millions 😅 but good job! U lucked out on this amazing chateau
In answer to your comment, yes, please do incorporate the ongoing costs in all your videos. It is a fascinating aspect of the project. This is now my favourite series on UA-cam.
Greetings and very best wishes from Canada. 🍁
Your enthusiasm for this project is infectious. Its so lovely to see that you achieved a long dream and not following the trend ❤ We are so excited that you're taking us along with you on your journey to turn this gem into a home!

Amazing 👏 It was meant to be. Thank you for sharing these details and the Chateau journey. It is a stunning home and part of history 😊
The house was clearly meant for you.
Nice video thanks a lot. Your chateau one of the best on UA-cam. Happy to see such project. Good luck.
Pat yourself on the back! You have COURAGE to follow your dreams! Way to go! Very impressive! Your Chateau is starting a new life with all your beautiful, thoughtful, and sincere restoration. Keep up the amazing work and details!
You were meant to have this house. Congratulations! And, you are doing a remarkable job so far. I love hearing your plans for future renovations. Cheers! Love the channel.
He seems like a lovely guy. The house is lucky to have him.
Auctions are exciting… fantastic you were not outbid!
Do you have your own water supply and if not are water cost high to come in and waste? Running costs of chateau seems to be the expensive part
How kind of you to share the financial information with regard to your Château de Dampierre. I am so happy that you were able to purchase your dream home. I love your youtube videos and look forward to following your progress throughout your journey. Thank you for sharing your home!
❤😊
My name is Donnine and I live in Lake Shasta California in the United States.
Thanks for your commitment and contribution to conservation of a beautiful environment. We'd need more people like you also here in Italy.
There is a Channel 4 UK, programme called Help I bought a Village! 3 brits have done this, 2 live in the area where the terrible earthquake was. It took 10 years for the Italian govt to finally help the restoration, one village was 1000 yrs old, the other 700 yrs old.
Fascinating series!
It was good to hear the financial issues brought up by you. Obviously these questions come to mind when we watch your videos. Grateful!
Damn bro this is so genuine. Refreshing to see something like this where someone is open and honest, without an ego. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your transparency. I watch many of these channels and you are the first owner who has really given one a sense of what it would take. Merci!
The chateau is so lucky to have you as the new owner. One day there will be life there again. It would be a beautiful place for weddings and other activities. Thank you so much for sharing.
I love these historical buildings being preserved for future generations. This is one lucky Chateau and area to have you come in and restore the buildings to such a high standard with such passion.
Refreshing to hear a creator talk money without stonewalling the answers. Kudos to you my friend!
Love your channel and its such a joy to see what a great steward you are to this magnificent Chateau ! Thank you for opening your Chateau so we can watch you return it to its former glory and in such a respectful way !
C’est agréable de ne pas seulement voir des anglais qui s’intéressent au beau patrimoine de France. Il faut un certain courage pour une telle entreprise. Bonne chance 🙏🏻
This place is absolutely stunning, and for that price an absolute steal!!!
HAHAHA ... I hope you learned for all future auctions Antoni ... NEVER put your hand up first. If the Auctioneer asks "Anyone" and then nobody answers he will usually lower the price and then you can bid. It is always a good idea to go to a few auctions to see how they work ! This is a beautiful Chateau and I would not have thought you would have got it for that price, especially as you got the Chateau, the fantastic Chatelet and then the other buildings. I don't know how much land you got with it ... have you bought a UA-cam Drone yet (everybody buys a drone). This is a fantasic video to give people an Idea so they can see what a Chateau can cost ! But naturally this is a project for the next 10 years I would say. It will be a wonderful journey following you and your renovation !!!
Thank you for your transparency about buying and renovating costs ! It is priceless information as I search to do the same in France. You are doing an incredible job with the property and I look forward to seeing all that you accomplish. Congratulations !
It was meant to be yours, congratulations! The chateau could not have chosen a better owner!! I'm very proud of the restoration that you are doing, you are good to the chateau and the chateau will be good to you!
Openness and honesty always deserve applause and respect, thank you :)
I love that you provided this information. I think it’s wonderful to see these homes being renovated and restored. Everything you have done so far is beautiful and I find it fascinating to learn about this. Best wishes 😊
I have always been intrigued with the chateau as a home. I wondered what it involves. You are the first owner that is open about what it takes to own a magnificent home such as yours.There are other channels offering chateaux restoration. They are either trying to rebuild a pile of bricks to make a chateau or trying restore a convent both drag on like dyi projects.Very boring. I have watched your videos since the first they each are educational and charming.Looking forward to future plans and your amazing home.
Sei una persona meravigliosa.
Bello, intelligente, simpatico, raffinato, disponibile, umile, molto sensibile alle belle arti e al buon gusto.
Sicuramente sarai vincente anche in questo tuo meraviglioso progetto.
Tanti tanti Complimenti
Thanks Antoni. That's very insightful. I'm loving all of you people who wish to restore these beautiful pieces of architecture. I'm enjoying the difference with people and their approach at restoration and yours looks like a splendid chance to bring out the beauty of yours. Great score .
Thank you for the interesting story of the auction. This Chateau was meant for you. Looking forward to future videos.
Thant you so much. I really had no idea as people that buy chateau’s never give prices and I live in the United States so I have no idea how much it costs. Love your channel
Incredible! yet nerves cracking, too
Je pensais que vous aviez acheté seulement le chatelet! C'est important de preserver le beau travail des artisans du passé. On a oublié comment créer cette belle architecture ! ❤❤ Bonne chance.
Comment ca on a oublié ? On a rien oublié du tout. Si on ne le fait plus ce n'est absolument pas a cause d'un quelconque savoir qui aurait été perdu.
@@AzertyOnFire si on n'a pas les artisans pour faire le travail, à quoi sert le savoir?
@@madelainepetrin1430 ok alors la je suis vraiment curieux, qu'est ce qui vous fait croire qu'on perdu le savoir ? Ou qu'on a pas les artisans ? Parce qu'on a les deux. Je me demande vraiment ou vous êtes aller pécher une telle certitude.
Certaines techniques ont évolués avec les outils modernes (et heureusement), mais dans les grandes lignes c'est le même travail qu'il y a 1000 ans.
@@AzertyOnFire venez voir la construction au Canada. Nos immeubles ne durent pas plus de 100 ans, nos maisons encore moins longtemps. On démoli et reconstruit sans cesse. Nos rues, égouts, murs de soutien ne valent pas ceux des Romains. Nos ponts et autoroutes ne durent pas 40 ans. Comment pouvez-vous dire que nous n'avons rien perdu? Bien sûr la cause principale est la politique, on ne pense pas loin, puis l'argent - chacun se graisse la patte. Mais surtout des techniques inférieures, mauvais produits, tel le bois, le ciment et la brique. Aucuns de nos édifices ne durera 500 ans !
Thank you for being so open and educating us . I will never own a chateau but I truly enjoy seeing the love and care you take in renovating it and your magnificent taste congratulations
I love this story of how you got the chateau. You were meant to get this property. You're putting alot of thought and care into the restoration of this property. I'm glad that you started your own UA-cam channel, I enjoy your video tours 🙂
Thanks for sharing and your willingness to conserve such a beautiful part of history!
✨🌞✨
It’s wonderful that the chateau has you to restore it. I can’t wait for the next episode. Such a delight to hear your visions and what you have found on your travels. Let’s hope you find a cache of Gold Louis to help❤
*He bought it for 675,000 with a bank loan*
*Only mention of expenditures for restoration was 1,500,000, plus "government assistance" (never specified whether it was financial or otherwise)*
*with the promise to display the property as a museum*
This is the most beautiful, magical castle and you are doing such an amazing job “fixing it up”- you have wonderful taste and a real passion, which is obvious.
Thank you for sharing the info with us all- speaking for myself, I wouldn’t have a clue about how much something like this would cost, so I really do appreciate your talking to us about it.
What a wonderful dream to own this…sigh.
Merci beaucoup ! It’s nice to hear how these beautiful homes can be saved 🥰 Look forward to seeing the transformation !
So nice you made this video, I was curious about that but would never dare ask so! Really a good price you paid but the renovations will probably be the expensive part of this project. Fascinating, hope you send more videos soon!
Amazing buying experience
The purchase price was very reasonable. But the renovation and maintenance is the essence of this type of real estate. The wonderful castle is subject to compliance with the protection of historical monuments. And will always rely on a good income.
Aller au bout de ses rêves, bravo et merci du partage
Your transparency is really amazing! I do think there is an element of kismet or Divine intervention involved that you were the only bidder - like genius, opportunity floats down waiting for someone to grab it.
I remember watching an interview with you about buying this chateau quite some time ago and wished then that you would start a channel to showcase the renovations. I am very excited to watch you transform this beautiful chateau & it's lovely grounds into a home.
Muito interessante saber sobre "valores", pois normalmente para a grande maioria das pessoas é algo inatingível adquirir um "Castelo"...gostando muito de acompanhar essa "Saga" da restauração. Rio de Janeiro - Brasil.😍
Antoni - what a wonderful gift you're giving to the future! I love your videos since they're showing the progression of restoration and rehabilitation! Your property is absolutely stunning - the chatelet is so charming. I can hardly wait to see it in its completed form. I just finished watching all of your videos.....and I subscribed so I won't miss any others!
I also love your descriptions of the decorations inside your guest house/your house! Please keep telling us interesting things about your purchases. Again, you have exquisite tastes.
I do have one question - how tall are you? I noticed you needing to duck your head to get through the various doors. I also noticed in the remodeled kitchen in your guest house the pendants hang down a bit low for your height. I'm 6 feet tall (1.83 meters) and I have some issues with older houses in the US and in Europe. Have you just learned to duck when going through a doorway?
Thanks for documenting your work. I hope you give us a further breakdown of costs since I know remodeling any house is expensive! Thank you for doing an outstanding job! And also, for your perfect English!!
Handsome Prince and his castle.A nice story indeed.
What a blessing that you were able to secure this beautiful home. You are doing a beautiful job on it and am really enjoying watching all of the renovations. Thank you for taking us along with you.
So funny that you are interested in British products and interior design, because so many British people want to create the French look
I’m so happy you started a channel after I fell in love with this home from the So Chateaux video! I love that you’re sharing your journey & I can’t wait to see what you all do! I can’t believe you got this treasure for so little! Wish I lived in France! 🥰
Congratulations on your purchase. Wish you good luck for the future!😊
Exactly! Nobody says anything about money. What you are doing is my dream and i am working hard to realize it. Thank you Dr!! ❤
Bon courage! I love your transparency - I find the whole process fascinating! It’s wonderful that you are willing to take on such a project!
Congratulations on your beautiful Chateau! It's truly a gem, and it looks like it has found its perfect owners in you. We can relate to your story here in Tuscany, Italy. We recently acquired an abandoned seaside villa, which had sat untouched since the 1960s. It's quite an intriguing case. Despite being on the market for well over a decade, no one took the plunge due to its cluttered state and lack of care. Fortunately, we took the leap and purchased it last November. Since March, we've been hard at work with renovations, documenting the entire process along with our travels throughout Europe. It's turning into our own little treasure along the stunning Livorno coast of Tuscany. If you're interested, feel free to check out our channel to follow our renovation journey and European adventures!
Do you have a video where you break down the costs of your renovations and purchase? I'm curious about this. Also, are you Italian, or did you move there to start doing this? Thanks!
So happy you are the person who purchased this property. What I have seen so far this property will be stunning when completed. Your taste is impeccable. Attention to detail is amazing. Thanks for sharing Deb from North Carolina USA❤😊
I love it….glad to hear the government helps with some of the costs. Cheers from California 😎
Bravo et merci pour votre engagement. Superbe projet présenté par un passionné. Merci pour le patrimoine français.
Antoni, c'est la première fois que je vois ton programme et il est vraiment excellent. Je vous félicite pour votre château, j'aimerais qu'il y ait des gens comme vous, aussi passionnés et engagés dans ce qu'ils font. Non seulement c'est le château de vos rêves, mais ils rénovent également une partie du patrimoine français. Je voulais vous mentionner concernant la clôture métallique que vous installez, que le mieux est de la sabler au jet pour enlever toute la rouille, sinon elle réapparaîtra avec le temps peu importe combien vous la poncez. Je vous laisse un lien pour que vous puissiez voir le processus. Au Chili, nous appelons cela le sablage. Salutations de Suisse et vous pouvez m'écrire si vous avez des questions. je ne suis pas médecin !!!! Je suis ingénieur et je peux vous donner quelques conseils concernant l'éclairage ou autres. Excusez mon français, qui n'est pas très bon, ma langue maternelle est l'espagnol. TOUTES NOS FÉLICITATIONS!! ua-cam.com/video/e0J9UXwHfls/v-deo.html
very nice vlog, very informativ
Sounds like you have a good relationship with Monument Historique. Look forward to watching you renovate your way back to the big house. Thanks for sharing the journey.
I think everyone is curious of the cost of things. Thank you for sharing this information and the backstory of how you bought this amazing property.
Parabéns pelo seu sonho realizado. Muito boa sorte. Estou torcendo por você.
L'indivision sonne la mort pour beaucoup de domaines. J'ai deja vu des chateau tombé sur des pieces meublés parce que les familles ne sont pas d'accord. Sometimes it's also spite, horrible !
Stumbled across you recently and am really enjoying what you're sharing. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing a bit of the information surrounding the costs associated with renovating such a beautiful, historical structure. I can better appreciate the magnitude of the project and responsibility you have taken on. I especially appreciate having a better understanding of what goes into renovating a listed building. I did not know how much went into getting permission to move forward with the different aspects of the restorations. It will be amazing to follow the progress. Thank you for sharing this adventure with us.
Merci Anthony pour la transparence sur le plan financier de votre rénovation. Vous avez raison, c’est souvent très difficile en France de discuter d’argent surtout pour des propriétés de cette qualité. Ca donne néanmoins des idées. J’ai hâte de voir la suite !
Quelle merveilleuse aventure ! Je me demande comment vous arrivez à conjuguer toutes vos activités entre Paris,Londres et Dampierre qui vous demandent de superviser les travaux et faire des recherches pour la rénovation.!!! Un peu superman 😉
De plus vous êtes charmant et on ne peut que vous féliciter de nous informer de toutes vos démarches et vos réflexions pour garder l’âme de ce château.
Je suis toutes vos vidéos et je les attends avec impatience .
Où en est la réfection de votre très belle grille ? et bravo pour impliquer les entreprises locales dans votre démarche.
Il semble que votre chaîne soit plus suivie par des anglo saxons . Dommage mais les Français ont un peu du mal à admirer les gens qui réussissent.
Merci de ce gentil message !
La grille de fait arriver (avec un peu de retard) fin septembre … bientôt une vidéo la dessus :-)
C’était juste un message d’admiration pour tout ce que vous faites .👏
Hâte de découvrir la grille qui va être resplendissante . Quel magnifique travail de cette ferronnerie pour lui redonner sa splendeur . C’est vraiment bien de voir qu’il y a encore des artisans talentueux pour restaurer notre patrimoine !@@ChateaudeDampierre
Thank you for taking the time to explain this aspect of chateau ownership. It sounds like you got a great deal. The chateau and grounds are beautiful and living there would be a dream. Good luck with your ongoing restoration.
Good morning ❤
What a blessing Antoni, that you and this magnificent Château became as one…
Thank you for all the love your giving her and also for sharing your personal experiences and journey with us…
She’s is one beautiful grand building ❤
Ah hello my friend. You said you paid 675.000 for the final sale. How much of the land or surrounding land came with purchase. Did I hear correctly 20 hectors?
Yes 20 hectares :-)
He’ll need 20 Hectors to maintain the landscape 😂
You "stole it"........congratulations. The chateau will be a demanding mistress.
All the best for you in the Future! You are doing a Great Job bringing the Château back to Glory!
Congratulations! Your hard work and determination shows a lot about your character. Looking forward to many videos regarding restoration of your château
Having restored an Italianate Victorian in California, we know that the purchase price is a small percentage of the final total. It takes a lot of courage, money, and then the upkeep - Ooh la la! But how beautiful it will be. The lighting and bones of the chateau are tremendous. Bon chance mon ami!
Thanks for being so open about what you paid. It makes it more interesting for the viewers.
I am stunned that you got this house for 675! Crazy!
It's very beautiful. I watch another you tuber called the Petherics. And they renovated their Chateau and are working on an old convent they bought very interesting
Love that vlog.
You rock dude! Like seeing those updates from ya, and Im sure youll restore the chatlet and the mansion to their former glory!
