A Tie in to the Eiffel Tower
This chateau came with an amazing story - the infrastructure was crafted by an architect who worked on the Eiffel Tower, so the beams in the ceiling were made of steel. This was a real beauty, with the most amazing interiors, floors, fireplaces. Another special aspect was that the dining room had cutouts into the parlor AND the mirror there was two way so you could see the parlor through the mirrors & the cutouts. Our showing was led by the son of the current owners, so we got to hear some of his stories of growing up there, especially the party they had in high school that dislodged the tile in the outbuilding! The price for this chateau was closer to the top of our list, & the repairs required would have far surpassed what we could afford. The land was stunning, overlooking a wide meadow with sheep. It was a real treat to view this chateau & if we won the lottery, this would be exactly what I’d like to spend it on!
