A couple of architects born in the 90's, transforming a french castle into a durable business

[@LaughingInTiny]

I love how you are including the community around you! What a fantastic story. I can't wait for more 😊

[@chateauroute]

Thank you very much ! We really think that castles must found again a place into their local communities

[@debbierudolph9489]

I loved the format and seeing the process through the eyes of an architect. Very professional 👏

[@chateauroute]

Thank you very much !!

[@YoureMadeOfLove]

This is a very enjoyable story about what it took to get the chateau ready for your first clients. Thank you for sharing the story with us.

[@chateauroute]

@@YoureMadeOfLove with pleasure! We think that giving this building a new purpose right at the beginning of the project is essential for the longevity of what we do there

[@Mej_Javiky]

It is nice to see your are trying to keep the chateau as original as possible. It is never boring to hear about the "before" story: What it looked like when you bought it, the history of the chateau, your history, why you picked this chateau.

[@chateauroute]

Thank you !! Have you seen the other videos of our channel ? Keep an eye on the following videos :)

[@UCLALJR]

Since I have only English, I appreciate the subtitles. Your videos are quite interesting, and I hope you show more of your renovation progress, both inside and around the grounds. thanks!

[@chateauroute]

Thank you for your message !! We appreciate and no worries, it's an unlimited playground for work and renovation so, many videos to come :)

[@syriendu13]

C’est incroyable le travail et l’énergie engagé dans ce projet les gars , je vous souhaite plein de bonheur et de courage dans ce nouveau projet , c’est une belle aventure !

Thank you very much !!

[@sirmonty4697]

What a beautiful home and location. Enjoyed the video and looking forward to the grand tour!

[@chateauroute]

Oh thank you ! We'll try to do it soon, with 30 bedrooms it's a piece of work waiting for us

[@neilerickson3158]

Nice to see you scrape away at the existing surface looking for that original workmanship. The roof looks to be in good shape to preserve the interior that is the greatest benefit. Bon Chance!

[@chateauroute]

It is indeed in a good shape, a few holes due to the latest storms but it's planned to be fixed very soon

[@susbs]

This video was great, thank you. Looking forward to more. 💖

[@sandracuthbert1217]

I love love the way you furnished the chateau.

[@chateauroute]

Oh thank you !! We traveled all around the region to find little treasures within our small budget, and after a small trip to our atelier, they are placed in !

[@sandracuthbert1217]

@chateauroute Small budget or not you for sure made a good job of it. I am very glad to see that French young people are embarking on saving their own history. (correct me if I am wrong you are a French citizen? I just assumed) I loved your vlog. Every Chateau should also have a special old car. Yours very grand! 🤩🤗

[@Keepthepeacesharethelove]

It's a ahame that no series was made from the renovation. That would have been very exciting.

[@chateauroute]

@Keepthepeacesharethelove we got reached by some tv shows however, we think that it’s not the right time to do so, we have to save this place in priority and after we’ll think about spending time on a show, but hey you are on the right place to follow our adventure!!

[@Keepthepeacesharethelove]

@@chateauroute Thank you very much for your response. A youtube series filmed by you would have been very exciting.

Bravo pour cette video très explicite... quel boulot, un grand bravo, on ne peut que vous encouragez... quelle métamorphose en si peu de temps ! Cela va avancer vitesse grand V en 2025 on imagine... Quelles sont les grandes phases prévues ? Gardez le cap et encore félicitations... et on attend la prochaine vidéo (à faire tous les 3 mois peut-être? pour éviter trop d'infos et un format trop long !). et surtout, MERCI de sauver le patrimoine et de faire revivre de tels lieux !

[@chateauroute]

Merci beaucoup, on va essayer d'augmenter le rythme de vidéo maintenant que nous sommes un peu mieux installés (quoi qu'avec 8°c dans le château c'est pas facile facile). Les prochaines phases d'hiver sont de préparer 5 chambres avec SDB pour le printemps, ainsi que la cuisine des traiteurs pour les événements privés qui vont arriver. Et puis, on planifie l'agenda culturel du château en parallèle histoire de faire vivre le lieu tout en continuant à le remettre en service !

Congratulations! I just bought a château in the Mayenne department and look forward to watching your content for ideas! I tried to purchase the pneumatic shovel / spade but they wouldn't deliver to France LOL where did you get yours?

[@chateauroute]

Amazing ! You know what an adventure it is :) You can fin it on Racetools or ManoMano, they deliver to france and the model we use is the Scheppach Aero2spade. Be careful of the compressor you use, must me very strong (we use a petrol one)

[@GoGoChateau]

@@chateauroute Thank you so much for the response and the detailed info! Yes, it's quite an adventure indeed...Eeeek!

When you sand ceilings, you need to make sure you are wearing masks, because most of the time, the ceiling paint was lead based.

[@chateauroute]

Of course, safety first ! We use special masks with specific air tight filters when we are in dusty condition
