This was a lovely, bittersweet walk down memory lane. My family and I were incredibly fortunate to be guests in your home about a year ago, and it was wonderful. ❤ My sweet dad unexpectedly passed away on February 4th. Your home will forever hold dear and lasting memories for all of us… it was our last trip together.

I always appreciate when wealthy people invest in good architecture. You did an amazing job! Thank you for preserving our history.

In a world where so many tear down old structures to build modern monoliths, what you have done with your French Chateau is perfection! Your family has given so much respect, love, & history to the home, and then given more again by using your talents to make it your own and breathe life back into it in a new century...truly so beautiful and you can really feel all that fullness of life the house holds, even through the muted lenses of a video recording. Astonishing and so well done!

Even worse, in France we don’t only build modern/URSS ugly structure who old very quickly, we destroy/sell all our old buildings, castle and museums For example a few months ago, the French government illegally sold all the antique furniture from the Thiverval-Grignon castle in a «private» auction at ridiculously low prices. Why? To transform the castle into a shelter for migrants. 🙂

Someday i would love to see a full whole house layout tour..

Wonderful tour. You have accomplished so much in 4 years. I can't wait to see the renovated bedroom suite.

I can't describe how much I love the fact that you are decorating your Chateau with a nod to it's past history while truly making it your own, and not turning it into a historic time capsule as so many other Chateau owners are attempting to do. All Chateaus evolved over the centuries, families adding to them, and redecorating to suit the changing times, so of course it is fitting that your family should do this also. It is a beautiful home & I can't wait to watch the transformation of the Master Suite.

I wish more people would turn it back in time as a time capsule. Most castles are messed up with half modern crap. The girl here did a stylish way but still I prefer the back to old 'time capsule' . So in other words: you are wrong about what most modern castle owners do and I disagree with your opinion about it.

This is incredible! I’m madly in love with how this turned out! This couple has so much talent and you can really tell that this renovation was done with much love and respect for the property and its history.

Many of the other chateau owners have chosen to furnish theirs with the heavy, fussy French furniture. Those pieces look better if they’re paired with the contemporary pieces. Gorgeous!

Any chateau saved from oblivion is a great thing. Beautiful job!

I love the mix of the modern with the traditional, you are making a home, it's not a museum and you have certainly respected the original building. I think it's so wonderful that so many of these incredible chateaus are being restored and lived in.

So humble about what you have achieved. I have to tell you the transformation is stunning. You both turned the chateau into a beauty. So homely so beautiful...

So far this is one of my favorite château restoration project the results is so mesmerizing so beautifully clean .

I love watching renovation of historical homes🏰🏠.

Just think…200 years from now people are going to be learning the history of your home and your name, as the creative artist that made the tiles and the beautiful wallpaper and the (dare I say) the visionary of what this chateau could be transformed into. Phillip implements the changes that you have imagined your home to look like. And makes us laugh along the way.

The cool, peaceful atmosphere in all these rooms, with their elegant style, subtle tones and perfect detailing...can never portray the blood sweat and tears you folk have put into them. Even I, who binge-watched all the videos when I first found you, only saw a scant half of the toils and tribulations. But you have achieved so much and thanks to Anna's smile, Philipp's humour, the sweet girls and cheeky pup it was fun too. Congratulations!

This is what elegance looks like .

Absolutely lovely. I often find it tragic to watch what has been done in the interior of the vairous Chateaux in France. But in your case, it is the perfect blend of historical, personal and modern comfort. It's so easy to project yourself living in it and at the same time it keeps all the grandeur of the original.

I’ll always be blown away with the kitchen!! Anna’s sense of style is UNMATCHED ❤

Anna, you and Phillip have done an AMAZING JOB restoring this lovely chateau. I have been with your journey for 3 years. It’s been truly a pleasure watching your family and Ziggy. When you see a quality podcast, and yours is, it’s just inspirational. ❣️Following your dreams is heartfelt by your audience. 🥰

Of all the other chateaux renovations on KZread your decorating taste is at the top!

Long linen curtains would look really stunning in the evening salon and would make the whole room even more cozy I think. I really love that room and you can really see the amount of thought you have put into this room

Of all the restorations I have seen recently I think this is my favorite. Mainly because the love and respect for the property and all the lives it’s had, and all the lives it has nourished I’ve been taken into serious consideration with great respect For me that is very important it doesn’t have to be exact. But the closest it is the more grand, it’s almost like a time capsule that takes you back and you can imagine what it must’ve been like to live in those times I think of how many centuries that house stood and how many things it seen how many things the walls have heard and how many little feet have touched the floors It’s so obvious that you’ve put so much love into the restoration. I do believe previous generations, and families would’ve been extremely grateful for the tender care you’ve given and breathing new life into this home.

You did masterful work! I love you're taking the modern route while staying true to the spirit of the chateau. Authentic renovation doesn't always mean to put the same old (more or less now seen as a bit ugly) colours and designs. You're allowed to feel comfortable in your own home. And you're building something to last what is the most admirable thing to do. Like planting trees, that are not only for you, but for the generations to come. Thank you. And I need a floor plan, I can't fathom how all those rooms are supposed to fit into these few windows 😅 (I slowly am wrapping my mind around it, but still, sometimes when you open a door it feels like you're in a movie house where the outside and inside shots are filmed at different locations)

Stunning of course, but the best part is when Anna uses her superb artistry to create custom murals & wallpapers etc Simply beautiful Also - absolutely love the colour of the dining room! Don’t be afraid of the warm spectrum!

So incredibly beautiful! Thank you for sharing. ❤

The French Castle home has come along nicely. A lot of owner art designs in display of tiles, flooring and painting. The mouldings too, a complete renovation. The entrance gate will be work of art too. Just a beautiful home.

Spectacular renovation by a very talented hard working couple. Bravo!!

Absolutely gorgeous and tasteful!!! So dreamy!!!

My house was built in 1880. It's really neat having an old house. So much history, so much character, so many stories begging to be told. Your chateau is beautiful.

I can't get over that it's been yrs. I subscribed before you had 20, I've loved every bit of the ride. You two have done a miraculous job of bringing your home back to life. The hard work and creative is beyond words.

I absolutely love how much care Anna and Philip put into restoring the chateau as much as possible. Above and beyond the esthetic, older details were often made to last centuries, which is something you don't find today. The quality and craftsmanship was so much higher then. In fact, even in my humble, little apartment, which hasn't been updated since 1978, my little kitchen has solid maple cabinets-- today? Unless you spent tens of thousands for custom cabinets in maple, you cannot find them now. I think they did a wonderful job and I think they made many wise choices.

This was fun to watch the recap of all the work you’ve done! I can’t believe I’ve been watching you for four years now. You could definitely make these recap videos every four years because you do so much! Your taste is exquisite and your workmanship is beautiful! I really look forward to seeing you make your master suite! It will be really fun to see what your dream bedroom would be. I hope everything is working out fine without the B&B. I can certainly see how that would’ve been too much work for you guys, but necessary in the beginning. Thank you for your lovely videos.💗💗💗
