It's now been 5 months since we put our first French house for sale, and it's feeling a little sad - it wants a new owner. Unlike English estate agent jargon, here are the facts we all want to know. You know what I mean:  cut to the chase. 
Pluses:
Price: reduced to 179 000 euros (includes agent fees). High-speed broadband access.
3 bedrooms. Gas CH. High-range kitchen, including integrated Bosch dishwasher, Ariston oven and Scholtes fridge-freezer, Ariston 6-burner ss gas hob.  Bathroom with power/massage shower. Land 2133m2 (half-acre), with clear views to the rear. Pool 9 x 4 m with salt filter. 2 terraces. Situation: on edge of village, walking distance to shops and nearby Aveyron river; 5mins to SNCF station. Mediterranean sunshine!  Minuses: rural location, need a car to get to larger towns and stores.

 So, what do you think? Worth the money? Would make an ideal holiday home. No reasonable offers refused - I'll even throw in a few extras......
