How often do you really need to override a property ? (hint : as far as I'm concerned, it never happened so far). Now you have two solutions : either redefine the whole property in the derived class, or, if you really intend your property to be overriden, provide a "template method" hook.
In Python 2.6 and 3.0 you can override the setter, getter or deleter of a property in a subclass. You may be able to find a pure Python implementation written by Guido. My C implementation in the core works almost the same.
