Question: Why are we not living our best lives in this cool spook-ass castle in France? This is 15th century Castle Brive-la-Gaillarde and it's under $1M. It has its own hamlet of outbuildings, with 10bds & 1ba (we would have to add a few of those). € 690k / $ 760,700. Let's take a look at this fabulous home.
Now, to me, this is freakin' move-in-ready. There's nothing wrong with this, it's beautiful. Just need a little cleaning and sprucing up.
We've got leaded glass windows, wainscoting and central heating.
Woah, look at that fireplace. Amazing ceiling and the floor looks fine. We'll have to find out what's going on with the walls. At least none of the wood is ruined.
Yowzuh! Look at this room. It gets more fab as we go.
Ornamental cement fireplace with bright blue tiles. Beautiful wainscoting, herring bone floors.
Ceiling details.
Maybe a bedroom? Sunny, beautiful fireplace, built-in book nook.
What could be better than stained glass windows w/a dragon crest?
Look at this, m'lady's boudoir.
Wait, that's not wallpaper, that's fabric. So maybe there isn't a leak in the walls- it's just dampness and age.
Is that an electrical outlet? Needs rewiring.
Wow, look at the wall of closets in here, around the fireplace.
Definitely fabric on these walls. We can easily tear it down.
Incredible turret. Mind the holes, stay to the right. This needs some masonry reinforcement.
Isn't this amazing?
Rapunzel view.
Nobody gets in to see the Wizard!
Countryside view from a door. I wish they would've shown the kitchen. More than likely, it will need work, but I would like to see if it's useable.
The view from an upper window.
Check out the outbuildings, the Hamlet. This is like a little village. Plenty of room for everyone.
Barns and stables.
So, for about $760K, you get 5.6 acres with a castle for you to live in, plus your own hamlet surrounding it. What will you name your village?

Une transe Espagnole cherche l'amour à nouveau sur Brive
J'ai bougé de l'Espagne pour m'établir ici sur Brive-la-Gaillarde 19100 en Corrèze par amour. La rupture a suivi peu de temps après ! Je me suis reconstruite peu à peu. Bien que je reste un peu sur mes gardes. Je tiens à ce que mon prochain copain soit fidèle ! Oh et qui m'aime pour plus que ma silhouette et ma taille de guêpe.
can u rec some pregnancy fics with overly protective draco and clumsy hermione
Rosaline by Abasicbibliophile - G, one-shot - “Okay, fine. So when I read it for the first time I really liked a name and then, when I read it as a teenager I always thought I'd name my future daughter that,” Hermione revealed sheepishly. “What? Juliet?” She shook her head,
“Rosaline. It's a beautiful name,” “Why didn't you say anything?”
“Well, Ara and Scorpius are rather poetic. You know, naming twins after two adjacent constellations,” Hermione answered. Draco smiled proudly. It had been his idea after all. “Why not now, then? We could be having a daughter,” he suggested after a short pause. “I think Rosaline Granger-Malfoy has a nice ring to it,” “No, Draco. We cannot break your family naming tradition over some stupid thought,” she said firmly. “Darling, I already broke the biggest tradition. Everyone expects this from us,”
A Most Unexpected Bond by Dizzle00 - E, 2 chapters - It had been eight days since Draco Malfoy had entered her office as her Undersecretary, claimed her as his mate and fucked her up against the wall. Eight days of the most intense sex marathon of her life, and he still hadn’t bitten her, no matter how much she begged.
Oh Baby Doll by Biirdiee_Rose - E, one-shot - “People do it all the time, I don’t particularly like it, but it’s not totally unusual.” Draco freezes, staring down at her as his eyes narrow. “What? They do what all the time?” “Touch my belly, they want to feel the baby—” She’s cut off as his fingers wrap under her chin, turning her face up to look him directly in the eye. “Other people have touched your bump?” He speaks slowly, and her eyes go wide. - Draco Malfoy was a possessive man, he'd always known this. However, he hadn't anticipated the amount of possession he'd feel over his wife's growing baby bump.
fire in our hearts (burning brighter than the sun) by riddikulus_puff - T, one-shot - Before the arrival of their firstborn baby, Hermione Granger-Malfoy and Draco Granger-Malfoy decided to go on short trips around Europe, something that they had thought about for so long in their relationship. Finally, they were able to do the trips they had wished about. Explore the places that they had always dreamed of travelling to but had never had the chance to explore because of the business of their work lives. After spending the last few days exploring the streets of Italy and exploring Marina di Carrara with their main adventure being a night-time walk along the beach. The next and final destination of the trip was France, more specifically going to Brive-la-Gaillarde.
