Behind its eighteenth-century blond-stone façades, Bordeaux lines up its townhouses: the single-storey échoppe, the maison de maître, the hôtel particulier and the villa with a garden. Home Select tracks down houses across Bordeaux, from Caudéran to Le Bouscat, and stays on until the keys are handed over.

The house market in Bordeaux, in figures

A house in Bordeaux sells above an apartment: a median of €4,800 per m² against €4,100 (DVF 2025). The gap comes from scarcity: a double échoppe with a garden inside the city cannot be replaced. The range runs from a single échoppe to renovate, in Nansouty or Saint-Augustin, to a maison de maître with a garden in Caudéran. Some of these houses sell without a listing; Home Select receives them through its network of 15,000 partner professionals.

In Bordeaux, at an equal address, a house’s condition sets the price. A renovated échoppe, insulated and opened onto its garden, sells at full price; the same échoppe in need of work, on clay soil never surveyed, is negotiable. Home Select has the works costed before the offer and brings that cost into the negotiation, so the purchase price reflects the real condition rather than the listing photographs.

Frequently asked questions

Buying a house in Bordeaux: your questions

Single or double échoppe: which one should you choose?

The single échoppe sits on a narrow plot, with rooms in a row and a garden at the back; the double échoppe, wider, opens onto a central corridor with rooms on either side. The single échoppe suits a couple or a first purchase; the double, a family planning to extend on the garden side, within the PLU planning rules. Home Select checks the plot width and the PLU rules on extensions before the visit.

Can an échoppe in Bordeaux be extended on the garden side?

An échoppe in Bordeaux can often be extended on the garden side, within the limits of the PLU, the local planning code: footprint, height, distance from the boundaries. Inside the listed perimeter, the Architecte des Bâtiments de France also signs off on façades, windows and doors, and roofs. Home Select reads the zoning rules before the offer: the planned extension has to be feasible before it is paid for in the price.

What are your fees à Bordeaux?

Home Select 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.
