I'm so glad this guy decided to keep the old-fashioned style, it pays homage to French architecture and keeps the house the way it was supposed to be. Much respect
That's not the french old fashion style, as a french it's obvious to me that this is an american reinterpretation of french classic style and it bothers me to be honest ...
Obviously he has money but he really has taste too - it's eye popping but it is somewhere I'd love to live (which isn't always the case with these ultra high net worth type properties).
and its also not common among poor/middle class population to have good taste on things, i bet on average, rich people have a much better taste than poor people.
@@serolatei9262 Taste is a purely subjective concept which evolves from education and wider life experiences as well as financial status. Of course, if your horizons are limited by financial struggle then aesthetic taste is a luxury - but God bless the low paid; 2020 has shown us just how much society needs their work.
@ I completely agree with your comment about money but taste is subjective - there is no objective measure of taste because everyone sees the world through the filter of their own experience.
Holy shit...I'm just trying to imagine the volume of cash he dumped into this project & then the cost involved living there. That's one successful interior designer!
He was a pretty big advertising executive and property developer before he was an interior designer. He is also descended from a few illustrious/aristocratic families.
So happy this château ended in the hands of this man with impeccable taste. What he envisioned is absolutely stunning! The only downside is turning the pond into a pool... that was a mistake.
I agree! The only downside is the pool. Maybe some stone and maybe a stone railing could be put around the pool to make it look more appropriate to the setting.
This is renovated into a pretty, American mansion, not a French chateau. To see the difference, we should look at the design principles for the two cultures and living habitats.
if i was a rich celebrity, i would definitely restore an old chateau! it’s a dream and totally a total achievement for my obsession for anything victorian-era. and as a casual writer of stories, living in one would definitely inspire tons! loved this so much.
No soul in this château when true châtelains live in them you get thé Real sensation!!! They dévote their lives to thé upkeep and so do their children of cause they have thé knowledge and thé class required for this life..
I understand the French government wants to preserve it's architectural history however if one buys and lives in these relics it should feel like a home and not a museum. Unless the owner chooses to do so comprised of all things periord. I think a swimming pool can be done but made like a darker reflecting pond as one would find at a stately home with golden proportions. I absolutely have great respect for such traditional architecture however if I were to live in such a stately domicile I would want the house and it's grounds to be useable from it's original intent to the most modern without comprising its classical beauty. Current technology can allow us to have both. The interiors are the most beautiful I have ever seen in a French chateau and it's images always convince me of what my ideal country house should be; a perfect balance of old world grandeur, modern comfort and warmth. Timothy did a spectacular job.
I have such respect for Timothy. He did such a wonderful job creating a magnificent liveable home. France is my favourite place to be, so this home is dreamy to me.
It's gorgeous and I'd love to be an occasional guest! Mr. Corrigan's a wizard of taste and eternal style. Fashions change, and derelict chateaux will rot. After wars and ruins, this place sings and sparkles.
You can buy many many "châteaux" in France much cheaper than any villa on the Riviera or California.. But you have to restore every year each and every room in this "château"...
What a gorgeous restoration, and yes, successful because it's beautiful AND comfortable. Mr. Corrigan also gives a very well-spoken presentation with a refreshing utter lack of up-talk. Thank you!
How could you NOT like this? A fabulous creative designer who does not want to build a townhouse or buy land and mass out a huge development of houses that all look the same !! He is so appreciative of old house and restoring homes that were let go. He is saving our economy by being able to afford and redo homes. Just like the teenagers now a days who do not appreciate antiques and then the antique market can be hurting now a days
You’re living what most people could only dream of your home is beautiful it’s takes my breath away enjoy it every single day many blessings thank you for sharing it
Loved everything about it except the pond that was turned into a heated swimming pool. I probably would have made that into a grand fountain. If you really want a swimming pool in a place as grand as this then an indoor swimming pool might be an option (not sure if its possible though since its a national landmark).
viceb7 - then the french should have bought the chateaux and made it the way they wanted it. The guy clearly poured millions into this project supplying jobs and renovating it with class. You guys are making a mountain out of a mole hill and it's annoying.
hum there are laws in France you know that aim to prevent exactly that: some rich American buying a castle that's part of French history and transforming it completely. If you don't want to repect the law, then don't buy a castle in France. It's that simple. You are the one who's annoying
If someone from any country buys a national landmark it is because the locals cann't afford to do it, so he should be allowed to do whatever he likes because he is saving that national landmark. Better than left it fall down in ruins. But I'm sure many locals would sure prefer the last.
Having money is one thing, having style is quite another. Clearly Mr. Corrigan has them both. What an amazing job he's done restoring such a gorgeous national treasure.
You don't need to be a billionaire. My friends bought a chateaux in France bigger than this for less than 1 million pounds (uk). What takes money is the electricity and refurbishment. But you can always do most of it yourself and then get in plumbers and electricians. It's ok to have dreams. Don't put people down for that
stunning! beautifully done. although I have to agree about that swimming. seems extremely out of place, would have been better kept as a reflecting pond
Was here for a wonderful wedding and it truly is magnificent and comfortable. Grand to say the least. Loved it plus the staff was amazing also. What a wonderful place for a wedding.
Sorry, but I'm so glad they said no to the swimming pool. It is much better outside. Beautiful renovation. I believe that this is one that any century of owners would approve of. Like you said, elegant and comfortable at the same time.
This is amazing!! I can’t stop to think about the Reno costs, I guess probably reached the price of the house. I’m so glad that he kept the same charm and flair from the past and didn’t transformed the chateau in a designer style which many others does.
There are a lot of beautiful homes where the inside doesn't match what you'd expect seeing it from the outside. This is dreamy, it looks out of a fairytale. The interior matches what you'd think just from looking on the outside. I'd die to live there, beautiful
Congratulations Thimoty..... my favorite designer , i can afford to buy your items . But you inspire me to decorate my home.... thanks for show to us your marvelous castle..... grettings from sonora mexico
Sehr cool, wie Er Sich durchgesetzt hat als Sie sagten: Nein, nein, nein, kein Chateau hat hier ein Schwimmbad! Die blau-weißen Räume/Zimmer sind wunderschön eingerichtet. Alles sieht so liebevoll aus und gemütlich. Das hellgrüne Schlafzimmer mit der Schmetterlingstapete - die Rundbögenfenster (3:06) - ein Traum. Friedvoll ist das richtige Wort. Die Marmor-Obelisken rechts uns links - diese wunderschönen Säulen und der Stuck - ich bin total verliebt in Seinen Einrichtungsstil.
Respecting individual taste and requirements and providing the same, is something very unique for a building. It's a great choice and a very mature design, who won't be surprised by sensing his/ her own personal prospective of living, finding in a hotel.
Your a Master of Excellence every room is breath taking it gives you instant joy. Your talent goes beyond its a Work of Art every room is a masterpiece like Monet the Colours you chose are perfect the history is preserved, the grandeur, the romance. The Gardens are exquiste it makes you cry it is so beautiful congratulations.
This place is a winner through and through. It's good to see woodwork that hasn't been painted over in stark white or in dark gray or black and that fireplaces have the look of the era in which they were built rather than something anachronistic or no fireplace surround at all.---I'm an admirer and reader of Virginia Woolf. I'd like to know and see which room Mr. Corrigan designed with Virginia Woolf as the imaginary guest.
His works r magnificent but also simple👍 very beautiful cant believe it💖 He deserves that glamour n elegant chateau bc he also uses it for marketing purpose👍 not just an overexpensive dwelling..
God gave them the gift of creativity! as long as they also give to others they are allowed to do with the rest as they wish. like build a beautiful home. Everyone does!
It's wonderful that such building was refurbished with money and taste enough to make it justice. It looks wonderful, faithful to its roots, yet comfortable for today's living. I hope it gets used and enjoyed a lot.

Das Er unglaublich was drauf hat, sieht man ja an jedem der Schlafzimmer und an der Tafel und an den tollen Wohnräumen.

Possibly, investors. And now it's running as a hotel

Wow this place is insane! Beautiful, and i love how he lights up when he talks about it. His love for the property really shines through.

I am not normally into fancy, but that butterfly room looked so elegant and fun at the same time. He's done a very tasteful design.
That dining room is a real life Wes Anderson dream
This is absolutely the most beautiful home I have seen on AD. Seriously, breathtaking... what a sight to behold.
Would love to see something of this quality in person some day
its for sale $$$

go to the Biltmore Estate in Asheville!!
Have watched this time and again. It’s the best restoration/redesign of a chateau on all of TH-cam
I love his design philosophy: beauty and comfort 👍🏻
Loved his comments on making spaces actually comfortable and livable.
What a beautiful property, I'm so glad that the designer restored it to its former glory.
It doesnt get any better than this
So True
i want to stay there just to feel like marie antoinette
She was killed
And eat cake...
Be a favorite not a wife !
She was married to a stranger when she was only 14 years old and had to leave her whole family and anyone she knew behind
Me too 👌👌👌
He's done an excellent job renovating this chateau - still grand but very livable.
This is old meets new done correctly.
I love his colors & his styling is so comfortable. He's very talented.
Absolutely stunning. Timothy is the perfect owner of that chateau and his design work there is magnificent.
Thank you for restoring this gem

How’s does someone accumulate that much wealth to own and live in a place like this?!?!
Ya, he makes it sound like it was just another whim.
Like oh yeah, just let me pick out a new shirt for the weekend.

That combination of green and purple from the bedroom always looks so nice.
Wow. Very easy in the eyes. I often these homes have such gaudy interiors. Frightening. This was beautiful.
Some of the rooms are so beautiful! But I'm glad the pink paint peeled off. I hope the room looked better after they redecorated it.

Wow. Dream home!
The Grounds are BEAUTIFUL...
I wonder why the paint rolled off the walls
He told you if you bothered to listen.
NO he didnt.
modern day paint doesn't mesh well with 18th century walls. He said something along those lines.
The moisture content of the wood paneling means that latex/water based paints don't work. Have to use oil based products on wood.
