I wonder how many of you have already clicked off to have a look at that one?! 
The Phenomenon of 'The Half Price House*' (or less) • It's quite something isn't it to be able to say - that just two hundred miles to the south of our shores; the UK's southern shores, where property is regarded as the most expensive in our own country... that there should be beautiful and interesting countryside, and that in or around intriguing and heritage steeped towns and villages, where properties are available for half the price (like for like - if such a thing should be found) of what our domestic market offers us and often quite a lot lower than half for comparable properties... (OK, OK... I know we have some international visitors... but I'm sure there are many points of recognition for you too). Scroll down for some more 'Half Price' properties!


This one is available for just 26,500€?!!... 
Of course, a lot less than half its seeming value...

26,500€? It wouldn't even buy you a one car garage in L.A. (Littlehampton!).
But, "comparable properties", I hear you say. That's maybe not quite the right term to use, because often Brittany and Normandy have some houses that aren't matched or like those commonly to be found in the UK... But there are many more of the property types that 2nd home seekers or cross channel movers are looking for. Something different to what's commonly found in Britain... whether it's because of the antiquity or the location there are plenty of places in Northern France that fire the imagination as well as having an appeal to the pocket. Especially where buyers are looking to 'sell their own at the top', move on and buy lower down the budget ladder to maximise their funds in hand ... especially if it's to provide or expand a 'pension pot' - the occupational or private pension that was just not affordable when you were younger or that just won't cut it when it's important that it should...
