The house market in Cap Ferret, in figures
On the peninsula, the house is a market of families: Bordéus dynasties settled for generations, houses handed down rather than sold, Parisians seeking a second home away from prying eyes, French families from London or Geneva coming back to anchor their summers on the basin. Value rests on simple, scarce things: the distance to the water, basin or ocean, the size of the plot, the pines, the soul of the village. Hence a very wide range: the median of the survey places the market, it never gives the price of an address.
The calendar matters as much as the budget: everything plays out from October to April, when the best houses come out through the network at the moment nobody is looking. To check before the offer: the land status of the cabins, part of which sit on the public maritime domain under a precarious permit; building rights, strictly framed by the PLU and the loi Littoral, with the shoreline retreating at the tip; the timber and the stilts, which live in salt, damp and a termite zone; the drainage; the upkeep of a wooden house closed for the winter.

Frequently asked questions
Buying a house in Cap Ferret: your questions
Oyster villages, Piquey or Claouey: which house for which budget?
Le Canon and L’Herbe sell character: wooden houses often gone before they are offered. Grand and Petit Piquey sell the family address, basin front and pinewoods, at a more readable budget. Claouey and Les Jacquets remain the most affordable market, twenty minutes by bike from the tip. The DVF survey for the 12 months to end of June 2026 gives a median of €7,500/m² for the whole commune; Andernos-les-Bains and Arès, on the north shore of the basin, trade at €4,600/m².
What should you check before buying a wooden house on the Cap Ferret?
The land first: in the oyster villages, part of the cabins sit on the public maritime domain under a precarious permit; titles, cadastre and real boundaries are checked before any offer. Then the building: roof timbers, decks and stilts live in salt, damp and a termite zone, so demand a recent parasite report. Finally what the plot allows, in writing. Home Select examines these points on paper before bringing you over; have the works costed before the offer.
What does a house in Cap Ferret cost?
The median stands at €7,500/m² across 245 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 on the Cap Ferret with a property finder?
The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Cap Ferret 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 on the Cap Ferret?
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 Cap Ferret, the monitoring starts with two sectors: the tip of Cap Ferret, then Le Canon and L’Herbe. That is often where the unfindable property is.
