An online glossary of French real estate terms. Words you may encounter when you are going to buy or renovate a house in France. I have collected more than 400 words through various websites, and I have tried to select the best translation. It has become a compact dictionary of words surrounding the purchase, construction, and maintenance of property in France.

France Village of Alsace France is a country of villages. Traditionally, the land has been inhabited by peasants and soldiers, who feel well at home in the villages. The villages are situated on sunny slopes or just shaded under high trees in a lovely valley. Villages where in summer the whole community jointly uses the meal at long white covered tables with singing and dancing after the event, and where in winter the neon lighting in the village street desires a "bonne fête" for everyone.
