Buying Property in Paris-Isle-of-France (Île-de-France)

Where to buy property in Paris-Isle-of-France (Île-de-France)

Surrounding Paris, this northern region is among the wealthiest in France and property buyers on a budget may not get much for their money here. Central Paris has some of France’s most expensive real estate but in the suburbs, the prospective property buyer’s money should go further.

In the surrounding départements of Essonne, Seine-et-Marne and Yvelines there is countryside, marvellous chateaux and affluent residential neighbourhoods – and high property prices due to the convenience of the capital’s proximity.

Though not a tourist area, the suburb of Marly-le-Roi between historic Versailles and St-Germain is one of the most fashionable and affluent to the west the capital. One of the busiest commercial areas is around La Défense, which also boasts very high property prices as a consequence. In the southeast, Vincennes in Val-de-Marne is a popular town where property prices are high compared to the French average but rather cheaper than the city centre equivalent.

Further out towards the borders of the region, towns such as Nogent-sur-Marne and Auvers-sur-Oise have inspired some of France’s best-known artists. Though property in these more distant suburbs is still priced above the national average, in general it is cheaper than the suburbs closer to the city and certainly a great deal more affordable than a property in the capital itself.
