Chateau DIY made stars of Sarah and George when they opened their magnificent home up to the show in season 4.

The couple have renovated the property themselves, and spared no expense when it came to attention to detail.

Sarah and George bought the chateau almost 15 years ago, and have split their time between the UK and their French home ever since.

When they first purchased the property, major renovations were needed in the first few months just to make the place habitable. 

At the same time as renovating the chateau they were also raising their two children.

The pair already had plenty of experience in restoring period properties before they bought the chateau.

Fans watched in awe as Sarah and George took viewers on a tour of their home on Chateau DIY, and now it’s up for sale.

For a cool £2.5M this French dream home could be yours.

Built in 1823, this chateau includes seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms.

If that wasn’t enough there is a wine cellar, basement, office and laundry room.


The property also includes a guest house, which includes a kitchen, dining room, living room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

There is also a swimming pool and pool house, plus plush gardens, woods and meadows.

SUCCESSFUL SHOW

Chateau DIY is so popular with viewers that it was recently revealed how Channel 4 have commissioned more episodes of the hit programme.

Historically the show has been commissioned as 30 hour-long episodes, but the new order has been expanded to 45 episodes each series, for the next two years.
