A wide range of rural property and traditional houses

There is a strong market for rural property and for traditional houses in towns and villages, many of which offer excellent value for money in terms of the size of the property.

Many French people live in apartments, especially in the larger towns and cities, so opening the market for foreigners to invest in rural property.

The Cote d'Azure has many multi-million Euros seafront apartments, and a traditional French chateau can be bought for much less.

There is an enormously varied range of property on the French Mediterranean coast. The Riviera district to the east is viewed by many people as the sailing capital of the Mediterranean; the Maritime Alps stop abruptly at the coast, creating one of the most beautiful areas of Europe. Further west, the coastline gives way to the large, marshy delta of the Rhône, followed by coastal lowland with wetlands all the way to the Pyrenees.

Here, the typical rural French property is generally inland, whilst on the coast the property consists mainly of apartments because land prices are so high.

There are also rural properties and farms in the mountain regions of the country, and here the main trade is skiers and snowboarders in the winter and walkers and climbers in the summer.

A small mountain hotel can make a pleasant home and a profitable business. Properties such as this can be found in the Pyrenees on the Spanish border, the Alps on the Italian border, and in the central massif area of the country.
