The apartment market in Bayonne, in figures

The Bayonne apartment trades around the apartment median, below that of houses, scarce in a town of riverbanks and buildings: apartments make up most of the sales. Demand is strong and permanent, local as well as Parisian, and supply does not keep up: well-presented properties trade fast, often between networks. Rooms and building make the difference as much as the bank: per square metre, large apartments trade below small ones, and old Bayonne ties you to small co-ownerships where a single vote at the general meeting changes the equation.

Around, the scale changes: Anglet and Le Boucau, then Biarritz and Arcangues, each show their own apartment median in the survey panel, above Bayonne. That is the very thesis of the Bayonne market: a complete town, on foot, with the station and the schools, a quarter of an hour from the ocean, at values that stay below those of the resort. The trade-off is costed before any viewing, and before any offer to buy.

Frequently asked questions

Buying an apartment in Bayonne: your questions

Petit Bayonne or Saint-Esprit for an apartment?

Two banks, two uses. Petit Bayonne sells the character apartment in the heart of the lanes, much in demand and noisy in early August; Saint-Esprit, north of the Adour, sells more recent, more accessible buildings a few minutes’ walk from the cathedral. Both read on the Bayonne apartment median, €4,000/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026, below Anglet and Le Boucau (€5,200/m²) and well below Biarritz and Arcangues (€6,800/m²).

What should be checked before buying an old apartment in Bayonne?

The co-ownership first: old Bayonne has many small co-ownerships, charges shared among few lots, old communal heating; ask for the minutes of the general meetings and the maintenance log. Then the structure: half-timbering, wall plates, uneven floors, damp cellars, to be completed by a specialist in old buildings. Home Select reads these documents and pre-views on video before bringing you over; have the works priced before the offer.

What does an apartment in Bayonne cost?

The median stands at €4,000/m² across 875 sales recorded over the 12 months to end of June 2026 (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, October 2026 release, 12 months to end of June 2026). It is a market benchmark, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.

How long does it take to buy in Bayonne with a property finder?

The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Bayonne and on your availability: Home Select frames it at the brief, then holds it. Properties are first seen on video, and your decisive viewings are grouped into a single trip.

How do you reach off-market properties in Bayonne?

Through the network and direct approach: Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before they go on sale, and also contacts owners when the setting calls for it. In Bayonne, the monitoring starts with two sectors: Grand Bayonne, then Petit Bayonne. That is often where the unfindable property is.

What are your fees for buying an apartment in Bayonne?

Home Select, a property finder in Bayonne, charges 2.5% of the net purchase price (minimum €10,000 incl. VAT) on the Exclusive offer, or 1.5% on the Confidential offer for projects of €2m and above. Home Select is paid on success only: nothing is due until you have bought.
