Bourges European Capital of Culture in 2028

The house is situated in BOURGES, 2 hours south of Paris. It's a medieval town, with a famous cathedral, not far from the Loire castles.
The region is also the heart of France Vineyard (Sancerre, Menetou Salon....)
The house is located in a quiet area. There is a small garden and a terrace just near the kitchen, where you can take your meals in summer.
Behind the house, you can have a walk or ride with the bikes along the "Berry waterway".
At 5 minutes walk you have a supermarket, a baker, a butcher, the post office, banks, a hairdresser, ...
At 5 minutes by car you have more supermarkets and more shops.

About Our Family

My name's Jean-Marc, 65 years old, I was a teacher in primary school and I'm now retired (since the 1st of november 2024). My 2 sons, Remi and Adrien are both adults now (28 and 31 years old) and are off travelling the world themselves. Occasionally, they spend their holidays with me.
