Bargain Friday! A four bedroom home with private courtyard in the charming small town of Montmorillon, France!
This home could use some renovation but is full of character, located in the “City of Writing” as Montmorillon is home to many bookshops and writing-themed museums! Montmorillon is located moderately distant from larger cities – 1 hr drive to Poitiers and 1.5 hours to Tours, France. For the price of the property, I feel like this would be the perfect home for a family with writer parents with children – imagining writing novels and exploring all the pretty medieval villages nearby!
