Origin of bastides:
Bastides are fortified villages built in France in the Middle Ages, usually in the Aquitaine and Languedoc regions. They are often characterized by straight streets and central squares, and they were built to reinforce the French presence in these regions and to offer protection against enemy invasions. Bastides are considered unique examples of medieval architecture in France and can be considered historical gems for the country.
Buying a country house in the Var department in France can have several advantages, such as:
- History and cultural heritage: Bastides are often associated with a rich history and unique cultural heritage, which can make them very attractive to buyers interested in history and culture.
- Charm and character: Bastides are often built with local materials and traditional construction methods, which can give them an authentic charm and character.
- Location: Bastide towns are often located in picturesque areas, offering spectacular views of the surrounding countryside and proximity to local amenities.
When it comes to pricing, it depends on many factors such as size, location, condition of the property, etc. In general, country houses can cost more than more modern properties due to their history and cultural heritage, but this also depends on demand and supply in the local market. It is advisable to consult a real estate expert to obtain a more precise estimate of the prices of the bastide you wish to buy.
