Just forty years ago, we purchased our first condo in a very old building in Nevers, France. The one-bedroom apartment was located on the 3rd floor and came with an attic.
It was smack downtown, next to the St Arigle covered market (marché Saint-Arigle) and we had to park in the street. We would hoist our bikes up to our floor. We were just three co-owners and we had a major roof leak that we had to fix while we lived there.
The place was old, but my wife arranged it with much taste and we lived in this tight quarters for about one year. The area was noisy and the neighbors across the street very... nosy!
We sold it a year later for about $25,000, at a tiny profit, and never again lived in a city condominium...

My wife and I really love France too, but visiting B.C. we stayed in some really beautiful places and saw some amazing sights. Being romantics and being so close to nature made it very special for both of us. Also took time to check out some amazing within budget properties. Be great for that weekend getaway or who knows, one day, maybe even forever.
