6. St Omer, France
6. St Omer, France (Image 6 of 8)
Price: £703,000
This traditional French manor house near St Omer, 41 kms to the south east of Calais, has recently been renovated - but rather than preserving it in aspic, the upgrade is a quirky mix of French tradition, modern furnishings and splashes of colour. The property has been fitted with a spa including a jacuzzi and steam room, plus there are several acres of manorial grounds, a swimming pool and several outbuildings.
In the sales brochure much is made of its proximity to the Channel Tunnel high speed rail link to the UK (which is a 30-minute drive away) but as the recent in-tunnel fire has proved, relying on it for the daily commute is a no-no.
