In 2020 father and daughter Steven and Stephanie and grandson Carter asked Jasmine Harman to help find a rural home in France to permanently relocate to. Thankfully she did and France soon became home. Now Jasmine returns to see the transformation of their country house and outbuildings – but will all the work be complete and will it work for all 3 generations?
Laura Hamilton re-visits Neelesh and Angie who bought a stunning new build apartment in Estepona for £260,000 in 2019 and enjoys some of the historic sights just a short drive away.
Charente, France
Stephanie and Steven
Budget: £270,000
Date of house purchase: 2020
Stephanie and her dad Steven wanted a property with gite potential so they could have an income whilst living in the French countryside. Eventually they picked the second property we showed them, and although their offer wasn’t accepted at the time – after filming they finally agreed on a deal which meant they had the house of their dreams!
Three years later Jasmine has returned to see that the renovations are finished. They’ve kept the traditional features but made it much lighter and brighter, and are fully setup as a working gite. Plus Jasmine gets to help out doing some planting in their beautiful gardens and tries out some petanque at a local club!
Estepona, Spain
Neelesh and Angie
Budget: £260,000
Date of house purchase: 2019
Neelesh and Angie wanted a property around Estepona, but none of the options we showed them quite hit the mark as well as a new build apartment near the Alcazaba lagoon which stole their hearts.
Amost four years later Laura is back to see their finished new build apartment which she last saw as a concrete shell. And after lunch together Neelesh and Angie take Laura to visit their favourite spot in the beautiful city of Ronda.
