Where to Buy Property in France

France is a great location with a wide range of property types and prices.

Do you want holiday hideaway or permanent home, retirement or commuting, town or countryside, mountains or coast? And how much is your budget?

Paris and the south coast are most expensive, while other regions and rural locations offer more for your money. The price of a two-bedroom apartment in chic Cannes, for example, gets you a four-bedroom house in the peaceful Loire.

Each region of France has a unique personality and character. Regional variations occur in climate, landscape, cuisine, architecture and property values. Use our regional guide to find out more about buying property in some of the most popular areas of France.
