What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Orleans?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Orleans is like. They answered...
"A typical expat home or apartment in Orleans is typically quite cozy and comfortable. With its traditional French architecture, the city offers rustic charm, with wood beams, stone walls, and cobblestone streets. Inside the homes there will often be a combination of modern conveniences and old-world luxury, such as marble countertops, chandeliers, and intricate ceiling fixtures. Windows will typically be equipped with shutters, to keep out the sun and provide a bit of extra privacy. Expat homes in Orleans are also typically close to parks, shops and restaurants, offering plenty of opportunities to explore the city and surrounding areas," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Orleans, France, France.
"We live in a four bedroom house with 1920 sf (176 sm)of space. It has three full bathrooms but small closets. The kitchen was empty of everything except the sink so we had to buy a complete kitchen cabinet set which we will take with us if and when we move. The house has a very nice front and back yard (garden for the Europeans) but we planted all the flowers in it. The house backs up to a small town park and sits on a street that is a closed loop so only residents and delivery people drive on the street so it is very quiet," commented one expat who made the move to Orleans, France.
