Stunning 5 bedroom Maison de Maître on the outskirts of the popular and historic little town of Benevent L'Abbaye, which is noted in the register of 'Little cities of Character' and on the Santiago de Compostela pilgrim route. Located on the top of a hill with stunning views of over the expansive gardens and the countryside beyond, this impressive property has been tastefully renovated, while retaining plenty of character and original features.

The rooms are light and bright with high ceilings and generous proportions. Making the most of the space, the ground floor is an open plan concept with a large entrance, a living room with an impressive fireplace, a kitchen dining area and a wc.

Interested in this property? Don't lose out to currency fluctuations changing the price you pay...

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £11,576 more.
