I love his enthusiasm. He is worthy of this chateau, and is the type of person who should own a treasure like this.
He's like a giddy kid the night before Christmas! Or even after, "Look at This, & See This!" Jumping from here to there! He makes me feel it!
Lol, nobody on this earth is worthy of a chateau! Though you do deserve all the slavishness you willfully and delightfully accept without question.
So true!! ❤️
"When you were shopping for chateaus" has to be the best opening line ever! xo
K B 👍🏻👍🏻
Who doesn't want that to be their life? lol
We are out here! Looking at Chateaux d'Aubiry. Soon. Very soon.
I shop for a new tee shirt and enjoy it very much, never shopped for a chateau. One wonders what feels like.
It's just so many rooms...and all those trees oh my... claustrophobia I just now contracted it. No way out!!
You MUST take us back when Timothy has finished his renno! This is, by far, the most exciting video to date! I am over the moon for this chateau! I cannot wait to see all the blooming this place will be doing in the future.. Thanks again Susanna for sharing your travels with us! Wonderful, simply wonderful!
Amy Hoffmann it is our honor and pleasure!!
We hope to!! We can't wait to what magic Timothy weaves there!! - Stacey (behind the camera)
Thank you Stacey for all your efforts behind the camera! Really beautiful work and I appreciate it!
Thank you again Susanna for all your efforts! I love these videos!
@@TheTinywhitedove Thank you Amy!
This is SO stunning, it HURTS! That courtyard, that tree-lined backyard. Swoon.
Alicia Egan it is indeed beautiful! Glad you found it inspiring!
Timothy is doing a tremendous public service by restoring not one, but two Chateaus. What an incredible legacy.
Jhw Webster Totally agree snd this is actually his fourth chateau!
The French government (especially after his second Chateaux) should be more amenable and gracious to him.
i mean its not a public service. hes making money off of it of course. its being sold off to people. Unless it is being opened up to the public to visit then hes not doing the public service, the person who bought it is. hes just commissioned
@@KimmyQueen Two chateaux one chateau. It's French.
Only an American could say something so obnoxious.
Good God he's got taste! The last chateau was beautiful, but this is next level!
flowerydave flowerydave Yes he does!!
I love seeing his excitement and that he’s not afraid to show it. So many hide excitement. Why? I too would be dancing through the fields!
if he can re-do another chateau...I can re-do my bathroom...lol...I feel totally inspired...you are the best!
Pallatium you can do it LOL!
LOL - you can do it!!
Tim is the perfect person to restore this magnificent property I am so happy he bought it Bravo Timothy..
Nancy Whitehead Couldn’t agree more!
I love that he's saving these old great houses not everyone can afford to take on work like this! I would love to work on something as historic and once in a life time as this!
Wow!! One of the most beautiful Chateaus I have ever seen! I can see why he was smitten with it!!! Just stunning!!!❤️🇨🇦
The way Timothy excitedly unwrapped the gift you brought him was priceless! Like a little kid on Christmas morning!
Loved it! Keep up the good work! Cheers!
We were so thrilled he liked it! And thank you!!
My favorite part!!
He's so excited about it. It makes me happy for him.
this is why I laugh when I see those Los Angeles mega-mansions... look at this effing chateau...
Isn't it just beautiful? And stay tuned for when we bring you the "after" hopefully next yeaer!
@@quintessenceblg So looking forward.
@@quintessenceblg Any updates on Tims new chateau ? Please PS LOVE your channel -- Australia
Craig Parham Thank you!!! Did you see our video with Tim in his LA office discussing his color and fabric and color schemes for the chateau?
@@quintessenceblg watched it all Darl - need more !! xx thanks
I would love to know the history of this chateau and its inhabitants. I wonder how long ago someone has lived in it too? Simply gorgeous!
I couldn’t stop smiling! I loved his excitement! The gift was perfect.
Very beautiful already...
This is so incredibly beautiful. I am so happy for him. The owner is the type of person who should own this exquisite piece of history.
Couldn't agree more! And as soon as Timothy is finished and it is safe to travel again, we will bring you the finished chateau!
Timothy is so amazing and exuberant! as are his homes! He brings them back to life with such care and joy!!!
Couldn't agree more!
I’ve been watching all your videos and this is by far my favorite. I love him. I would love to be his friend. I could listen to him all day describing everything. I felt his excitement and see his vision. I wish him the best. I hope he continues to enjoy the process even with Covid. Thank you to all for sharing their homes. ❤️
Delighted to hear it! We adore Timothy too and can't wait to go back to France once travel is safe again and bring you the finished chateau!
Susanna, Stacey and Timothy, thank you for the tour. Opening the door to each room was like opening a treasure chest. Your chateau is lovely. And, the light and grounds are magical. Thank you again for inviting us in.
Our complete pleasure!
It is our pleasure and it's true - the chateau and grounds are pure magic!
So cool! My mouth dropped even further when he referred to it as a ‘small chateau’....my units just a little bit bigger than the gap between the double-doored walkways 😝
Susan and Stacy thank you for this wonderful tour. The chateau certainly is a gem. Love to see it finished. Timothy is just the right person to own and restore it's charm. Your gift to him was a forever preserved memory of all the special guests he will entertain. I can't say it enough times how much I love your chanel. And all the talented designers you visit.I am inspired by all of them. Thank you. 💋
Thank YOU!!! We love our enthusiastic viewers like you - why we do what we do!! We will go back to Timothy's when he is done and it's safe to travel again!
He is so sweet ! I wish him much happines in his new home.
I would LOVE to see the finished product after the renovation and decorations. It was infectious seeing him talk about and show off his new home.
We are planning to revisit and bring you the after - hopefully next year! Stay tuned!!
😊👍🏽 Thank you. Loved this. I just bought a new home so I'm so inspired by this even though my place is not a chateau. This was just lovely. Looking forward to the finished product...but I think I may have seen it. 😊
Incredibly romantic and beautiful!!
Invidio non il castello ma l'entusiasmo, la forza, la voglia di far fronte ad un simile immobile. Bravo. Complimenti
Timothy Corrigan, a visionary , such enthusiasm , love his energy
Thank you Quintessence .
Mary Canada 🇨🇦
Our pleasure! We can’t wait to go back after Timothy is finished!
My FAVORITE Chateau ever❣
It's a beauty!
Magnificent beauty!
Thank you!!!
What a lovely man, and a treasure of a château!
Yes and yes! And stay tuned for the "after" coming hopefully next year!!
What a beautiful Chateau! Thank you Timothy for sharing this "Sleeping Beauty". I can't wait to see its transformation! Susanna and Stacy you are the best when telling a story!
thegardengazer We can’t wait either - and thank you very much - we love giving design a voice!
A question that no one will ever ask me: "When you were shopping for chateaus..." LOL
Chateaux. And anything is possible.
You never know 🤔
Absolutely stunning! I could watch this over and over again! Just spectacular!
Thank you!! Hopefully we'll get to bring you the after!
Not unheard of in these videos :-D
What a magnificent house! They sure don't build them like this anymore. Has a great feel to it. Can't wait to see it finished. Good on you Timothy for renovating it. Enjoy it
How fabulous is this place & he is the essence of quintessence!!!
It IS and we adore Timothy!!
That how you must spend your money. Love this man! He gives back to the Universe.👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
Dear Susanna and Stacey: thank you so very much for this gorgeous visit to Chevallerie....I cannot think of two more lovely friends to share this magical place with. Merci, merci! xoxo
Thank you for taking on this project and saving such an amazing property. Looking forward to seeing the results of your hard work & expertise.
Your friendship and talents are a true gift!!! We adore you. Stacey and Susanna

Susanna and Stacey......you are an absolute integral part of my daily life!!!
Thank you a million times for exposing us to beauty and dreams like this!!!!!!

I BEG YOU!!!!!!!!
franz grabe Thank you so much Franz!! Delighted to be a part of your daily viewing and so enjoy your comments here! We will hopefully be bringing you the “after” of Tim’s magnificent chateau - stay tuned!!
When looking for Chateaus...its beautiful and all of the details are exquisite. Every single aspect is perfect, superfluous. My stars such beauty and exceptional detail and character and centuries of love and care and appreciation for its beauty.
I wasnt envious until he said sheeps will be roaming the fields 😄
my face lite up when this video came up on my feed. I so look forward to these, thank you immensely!!💗
alvaro Lopez Mille mercis!!
Thank you so much Alvaro!!
Me too!
Best At Home episode yet! I’m almost as excited as he was! Please revisit this project as it progresses! Merci!!
Karen Milovich So glad you enjoyed! And when Tim is done and as soon as we can safely travel, we will return!
How exciting for you, Timothy, to be renovating such a jewel. I can't imagine the layers of history incorporated with the devotion of such love you must have for this beautiful chateau. You are undoubtedly the gentleman to be overseeing the renovations with your reverence to the past and your foresight to unveiling that which is yet to come. I can only hope there will be copious amounts of champagne to celebrate your achievements along the way.
Well done, Mr. Corrigan.
Darryl
Totally agree Darryl - the chateau should be thankful to be in Timothy's knowledgeable hands. Stay tuned for the "after" hopefully next year!
I am so glad Tomothy Corrigan bought this chateau .... he will do it proud !!!
LadyKoKo B Me too - totally agree!!
Timothy is do brave to take on such an enormously fabulous and historic project at this stage. Not that he's old, but, after completing Chateau du Grande-Lucé I'd have just hung up my hat and licked my lips like a Cheshire cat at my accomplishment.
He is amazing. Looking forward to seeing the completed project.
He is indeed - both brave and amazing!! We hope to be able to bring you the finished project!!
Ah! But what might be of one person's dream that has a happy ending, might be another's dream that has no ending. 😉 I could see where restoration could become a lovely habit to form, but chateaus! I'm excited to see someone restoring such beauty and history. I hope it catches on so more will respectfully do the same. How does he contain himself?😍
He'll be onto something else after this one too. Is the creative process that lights him up.
What a magnificent chateau, such detail in every room. What a undertaking to restore this country home, hats off to you Timothy Corrigan.
FriscoRed M. Indeed!!! And stay tuned for when we go back “after”!!
Quintessence I can’t wait!
What an extraordinary man so full of warmth and love for France and its history.A most amazing acquisition. Loved the private chapel so very much a part of French history.
Bluewren Reilly All true - Timothy has a passion for France, it’s history and its decorative arts! Stay tuned for hopefully a video for after the renovation is complete!
I am so grateful that there are people like him who have the means as well as the appreciation and enthusiasm to bring old buildings like this with their incredible are works back to life.
Amen!!
The video oozes Timothy's love for architecture! Amazing and beautiful house and grounds!
shru1014 So glad this comes across!!
Tim's personality and attention to detail is wonderful. Looking forward to see the renovated rooms with his own touch. Talk about a home project!
Wow, just amazing! I absolutely love Tim's passion & enthusiasm. What an incredible service this will be for the community. This couldn't be a better way to honor the craftsmanship of yesteryear.
Super Annie Oakley Couldn’t agree more! Glad you enjoyed!
@@quintessenceblg ❤
This is a gorgeous château. Cannot wait to see the finished project
It is always nice to see very old architectural gems getting the love and attention they deserve for the present and for future generations as well!!! Hope Timothy lets us view the final transformation of this beautiful and historical property
Totally agree and fingers crossed!
6.4.20 ~ Oh, my goodness! How fantastic Chateau de la Chevallerie will be once Timothy puts his vision into the realm of reality. I sure do hope that there will be revisits along the way. And what a super wonderful Chateau warming gift that Guest Book was! Than you, so very much for allowing us along for this first of many (I hope) visits to Timothy's French country home.
Thank you so much! We can't wait for Timothy to finish and to get back to film the "after."
BREATHTAKING!!
SUCH A WONDERFUL GENTLEMAN!!
We adore Timothy!
Oh my gosh...this estate is magnificent. I can't wait to see the after! Peace friend. 🦋
Yes it is! And we can't wait to see the after either!!
Oh my word ... how absolutely magical! Susanna, I absolutely love every single one of your beautiful videos ... what a gift they are to us!! I am just in awe ...
Bonnie W thank you Bonnie!
I don't disagree
All the very best with this exquisite adventure. What a magnificent opportunity to bring it all back to life. 👍👍❤️❤️
Indeed!! Can’t wait to share the “after” once Timothy is finished and it’s safe to travel again!
One of my favorites, thank you for sharing. Timothy Corrigan is one of the best designers.
Our pleasure!1
This property has much more potential than Le Grand Luce, so much character here. I totally understand Timothy!!!I have no idea how to renovate it, it`s so much work. Moldings are insanely beautiful. He has the most amazing eye for beautiful things! I can`t wait to see the process results. GOOD LUCK, Tim!!!
Totally agree on all!! Stay tuned!
This is so magnificent that I don't even really know what to say!
It is indeed and stay tuned next year when we will hopefully bring you the "after"!
@@quintessenceblg Just don't make it only five or ten minutes long. This house deserves an hour.
OMG don't we all wish we had such a place to live. I have no words, and watching this I was madly planning what I would put where etc.......lovely.
Sweet dreams and happiness at the chateau, it deserves a fine steward to oversee the renovation.
How amazing. I don't think I've seen a property like this ever ... its so perfect yet so in need of love & attention simultaneously. I can only imagine how fabulous it will be when Mr Corrigan works his magic on it. Damn the heating bills hand out down jackets to guests.
Good idea I like your attitude!
Love that suggestion!! And yes, it is a truly beautiful property!!
What a beatiful place, so european, so detailed, full of art. Good luck with this proyect.
That's such a beautiful and thoughtful gift. Well done. And the Chateau; wow. The grounds made me cry.
Thank you!! Stay tuned for the after sometime next year!
I love the how dynamic the whole architecture is.
It's like little Versailles. Very beautiful chateau.
I hope you show us room-by-room renovations in videos. The chateau is gorgeous!
We hope to be able to show the after when done....
@@quintessenceblg Even if it is a 30 or 40 minute video. I need to see it!
Timothy Corrigan ist wunderbar und inspirierend...von Gott geliebt...🙏❤
Danke fürs teilen...es ist eine Freude ❣
Einverstanden! Und danke vielmals!
Lovely......he shows so much dedication to bring the original beauty of the place....love it.
Deneida Malave Exactly! Glad you enjoyed!
I want a room with the same Toile wallpaper. Love it. J'adore.
CajunLady I don’t blame you! Stay tuned for the “after” hopefully next year!
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful chateaux, I absolutely love the dining room, and the chapel, absolutely stunning
Those are both amazing spaces! Glad you enjoyed!
Benjamin Frazier 1 chateau, 2 chateaux
Congratulations! It's a pleasure to know that this beautiful château is saved from decay... 🌹
We agree and look forward to revisiting once Timothy has completed his work snd it is safe to travel once again!
Love the house, gardens, that long view........... and Timothy! Such wonderful enthusiasm which was so infectious. A joy to watch. Thank you as ever..................... x
Thank YOU Helen!! So glad you enjoyed. We adore Timothy and can't wait to go back once travel is again possible (and the chateau is completed) to document the "after"!
At long last!!! I've been waiting for this video for so long. My heart skipped a beat when it appeared in my feed. I've watched it three times already! Timothy Corrigan is my absolute favorite designer. He is so warm and charming and passionate and that comes across in his design. He seems like a person you'd want to stay friends with too. I will be dreaming of the end result until I see what he does with the place. Although, personally I could move in right now with nothing other than an air mattress and be utterly content until I died. It is that gorgeous. The setting! My goodness. Just breathtaking.
jcrane45585 I’m so glad you loved! And Timothy is truly as special off camera as he is on!!
We adore Tim as well and this chateau is so very special!!
Drinking it all in. An infectious combination. Another exciting journey . A perfect taste of heaven. You chose such a charming gift. Thank you for another favourite.
Thank you - so glad you enjoyed - love following Tim on his journey!
Timothy is crazy wonderful. Just love how he gets so excited What a wonderful treasure, Timothy and the Chateau!
We do too!!
What a nice and very blessed man to own such a beautiful place! I can only imagine!!
We agree!
I SO enjoyed this video. The estate is already magnificent. I can hardly wait to see it renovated and decorated! I will be one of the first on the list for the presale of his next book about this home.
That was a wonderful tour. Thank you for highlighting some of the finer details and adornments of that magnificent chateau. I wish you much success preserving that gorgeous piece of history.
Susanna I am so excited for Timothy He looks like he couldn't be happier. Spectacular! I am hoping he will share his updates on the new chateau with his many fans Your choice of a gift is probably the best and so much appreciated by him. I love watching Quintessence I'm so thankful he is willing to share. You make these beautiful people so happy. Your the best. pvr
Thank you Phyllis - so glad you enjoyed! We hope to bring you the "after" when Tim is ready! - Stacey (behind the camera)
ms. salk, you are a lady among ladies. i greatly appreciate your dynamic, insightful, creative and elegant presentation. thank you!
Oh I'm in LOVE!!!!!
Enjoyed immensely, had to watch in twice, can't wait to see the video when he completes it, I know it's going to be even more beautiful
Incredibly beautiful... I'm getting envy😀 It is indeed something to dream of 😛
What a place!!! Although I prefer English Estates...this Chateau is stunning! Glad to see someone with Passion , lovingly restore it all!
I am practically dumbfounded; the property is at once majestic and charming! What a marvelous treat you have given us to see the property before renovations (though heck, I would move right in). The details are splendid: everywhere you look there is magnificence to enchant the eye. Give me a holler if he needs help, I can cook(ish) and clean very well, LOL!
Eristhenes will let him know LOL! 👍🥂
LOL - will pass your offer on to Tim!
He has a youtube account send him a note and pass him your resume lol
Bonjour Suzanna and Stacey, usually I have comments, thoughts, sharing my feelings about a video. This time I am totally out of breath and no words come to my mind to describe what I saw ! One thing I am sure it will be so interesting to see the transformation of this Chateau. Just EPIC !! Much love and more love for you girls for bringing us to Timothy's Chateau. (( hugs )) P.s.: Many thanks to Timothy for letting us see this marvelous place.
Rosalind Hambleton Mille mercis!!
Thank you Rosalind!! It was epic for us as well!!
I would enjoy meeting Timothy and assisting him with renovating that Chateaux
At age 64 I like to say that I have lived my life without envy but watching this I have felt a pang of what I can only imagine is ,,,, envy ! How on earth this chateau has survived intact over the centuries and not been vandalised by modernisation is a miracle ! Can't wait to see the results, would soooooooo love to see the process, my favorite part. Thank you girls xoxo
You are so very welcome and we did a little video in Tim's office in LA where he shared a bit of his process. Also, we will be back this fall to film the "after" - stay tuned!!
Yes thank you so much Timothy. That was beautiful. I know it would be more beautiful when finish
I always love all your videos in youtube. Keep it coming love all gbe houses you visit. Thank you so much for sharing these.
Amazing video, i can’t waiting to see this gorgeous house all furnished.
Thank you very much Susan for share this moment with us.
Thank you Suzana - we can't wait to see if fully finished either!
Perfect person to own this historical beauty.So glad he mentioned the Egyptian artefacts/ inspiration. It’s a sign of someone who’s secure enough to acknowledge true history and essence civilisation. Much respect ....
Yes, Timothy is very knowledgeable!! Stay tuned for when we return after he is finished his renovation and decoration!
C'est magnifique.Comme j'aimerais y vivre. So stunning and beautiful. I wish I could live there
Hi Susanna and Stacy. When I first heard that Timothy had sold his beautiful
Chateaux, I was horrified. But his new Chateaux is magnificent. I am so happy
Timothy bought it because I know he will do a truly wonderful job.
Kind regards
Kate. X
Thank you Kate! We are sure he will too!! - Stacey
One chateau, two chateaux, please get it right
Thank you for the tour!
Do invite us back when this one is finished. I would love to see the wonders you create here. Love your design style Timothy and thankful to Quintessence for showing it to us all.
We definitely will! Hoping to go in 2023!!
Whoever did the filming did a good job. Lovely views of the rooms, details and connection to the outside.
Well that would be me! Thanks so much and so glad you enjoyed!
