    I loved it. I can't say that the interior has been done badly at all. However, one might say that the modernistic furnishings are a bit off for so historic a house, but I feel that they fit quite nicely. If you don't like the more modern furnishings, you can always remove them and enjoy perhaps stone walls with a few tapestries thrown over them. That way, you can obtain the medieval feel. But a great house and furnishings, in my opinion.

    It started beautifully and immediately the foyer was a let down so I was hopeful it would get better but once the first bathroom was shown ... the tackiness would not relent. Fortunately it’s a beautiful home (exterior) and has great bones to be properly designed inside. I hope the new owners gut it.

    The approach to the chateau with the spires looming through the trees was promising, until I saw the front doors, like brown loafers worn with a black tuxedo. The interiors were exceptional, if they had been installed in a modern glass and concrete structure overlooking the Pacific coast. Call me traditional, but I would have been much impressed if the interiors had been completely Louis the umpteenth with some chinoiserie accents.

      It's always the upkeep, isn't it? You could live very modestly with a well paying job and dream of a very nice place like this, but the reality is you still couldn't afford it. You need 10 to live in a place that costs 5.5 since you'll be spending 100k+ a year just to keep it going. You'll also need a serious passion for lawn care or it's another 40k gone

    I'm always perplexed why a person who would want to buy a castle would refurbish the interior with such modern stylings. The two flavors to do not complement each other and seem to take away from the intrigue of living in a castle. The anachronistic interior made me a bit sad for the legacy of this chateau.

      The property and house structure/bones are absolutely gorgeous. I have never understood why someone would then furnish it with furniture and art that clash so badly with the chateau itself. I do give two thumbs up to the seller and the realtor for presenting the house and property in an immaculate condition. I would seek out and hire the cleaning company they used, and recommend them to all of my friends!

    It is a castle from the late nineteenth century, early twentieth. If you want to refurnish it with original furniture of the time, then you will multiply the price of this castle by five or six and it will take a lot of time. It is easy to criticize the interior design, but you have no idea of the price of antique furniture quality, at best you will buy copies.

      Actually these days antique furniture is sold cheaper than you think! (At least in europe) No one wants or buys it anymore, so the prices dropped extremley. I got my "new" original dining table from 1890 for 600.- Bucks from an antiques dealer😅 and found matching dining chairs from late 1890's, early 1900's for 160.- Bucks the piece! (i have seen dining chairs for 150.-/200.- the piece at Ikea, and in other places here a normal wooden dining chair usualy costs around 250.-!) You just need patience and compare the prices and you can find the craziest old things for realy good prices 😀
