Hi there,if it helps these are the approximate costs of our place in the Limousin. The small house and barn is being combined to make one large dwelling of about 230 sq m total.At first we were informed it would be around €150,000 to achieve this.However,we like most have added to our original design several times,some costing less and some more. Once the Devis came in,it was apparent that the original idea had escalated dramatically.We now stand at approx €250,000,largely influenced by the need to replace the roof as old tiles were industrial grade.Chimney top had to be rebuilt too,due to acid erosion of old bricks, underfloor heating and so it goes on!! We are still working in the UK at moment and have decided this task was just too big for DIY version, hence having local artisans and judging by their efforts so far we are so glad we did! New roof is fantastic and apparently work has now started on cutting new windows/doors etc.Our architect is project managing the whole thing for us(Sound move,even if it adds to costs) Hope you can get an idea from this for your project. Best of luck.JB
