Homes in Brittany 'fit a GBP100,000 budget'

Those with GBP100,000 should have little difficulty finding a property in the French region of Brittany, it has been stated.

French property specialist firm VEF said there are many properties available in the region for this amount, which works out at around EUR125,000.

Noting that its representatives had met a number of aspiring buyers with this sort of budget at the London Property Show, the firm stated that its own list of available properties included a two-bedroom cottage in a hamlet available at EUR107,000, a village property that could be extended at EUR 112,000 and a three-bedroom home for EUR122,000.

Sextant Properties recently identified Brittany as a region likely to be one of the most popular regions in the country for British buyers this autumn.

It identified factors such as food, the landscape and closeness to Britain as major elements in its favour.
