17x7 - Londoners Phil and Amanda Hope to Find an Affordable but Grand Home in France's Languedoc-Roussillon Region that Does Not Require Major Renovations

September 9, 2010

Phil and Amanda Grapes moved from London to the south of France seven years ago, and since that time they've renovated five homes, and lived in all of them. That's a tough lifestyle for anyone, and especially tough for the parents of young children, like Phil and Amanda. With no formal training in home renovation, the couple has had to learn on the job, but they've enjoyed doing it, and have found it to be a profitable career. However, Amanda is tired of living in a construction zone and she's ready to buy a home that is ready-to-move into, and will be permanent for their young family of four. They want to stay in France's Languedoc-Roussillon region, and they want to find a grand home with plenty of local, historic character. Their only other request is for a large garden where the kids can play. Their budget is ,000. Find out if they get what they want when House Hunters goes to France's Languedoc-Roussillon region.
