Before discussing average property prices in this famous town, it is important to highlight the area’s architectural merit.

Le Corbusier, Perret and Mallet-Stevens have all left their timeless mark on the place.
The 1930s trail - a walking tour that explores Art Deco style buildings - delights both curious visitors and locals. The town’s architectural identity appeals to heritage enthusiasts in particular. These exceptional properties can sell for very high prices.
