Property type · Bordeaux
The Bordeaux maison de maître is a stone family house of standing, on two floors, between courtyard and garden: in Caudéran, around the Jardin Public, in Le Bouscat or Saint-Augustin, and in the countryside in the form of the chartreuse, the low country house of the Bordelais. Home Select hunts it before it lists and brings you over only for the decisive viewings.

The essentials
Home Select, buyer’s agent in Bordeaux, searches for maisons de maître exclusively on the buyer’s behalf. The DVF register does not single out this type of property: it counts it among houses, whose median stands at €4,800/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026 (1,037 sales), a benchmark that the address, the floor area, the land and the condition move. Home Select opens access to off-market properties, with fees 100% on success.
On the ground
A maison de maître for sale in Bordeaux reads on the house median of the survey, €4,800/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026, as a benchmark: the DVF register does not tell it apart from the single-storey échoppe or the recent house, and its value lies in the garden, the façade, the reception rooms and the neighbourhood. The finest, in Caudéran or near the Jardin Public, trade above it and often pass between families, notaires and networks without a listing.
Demand is family-led and constant: Bordeaux families who need more space, Parisians settled since the high-speed line, executives from aeronautics and wine. Old buildings call for a careful reading: roof, floors, damp in the stone walls, networks, and energy performance, often poor before works. Home Select checks every document before you commit; have the works priced by an architect or craftsmen before the offer.

Gironde
Caudéran and its streets of period houses; the Jardin Public quarter and Saint-Seurin; Saint-Augustin and Saint-Genès, near the hospitals and schools; Le Bouscat (€3,800/m²) and Talence (€3,500/m²), the same family of houses outside the city; in the countryside, the chartreuses of the Entre-deux-Mers and the Médoc.

The Confidential offerFrequently asked questions
The échoppe is a single-storey town house, aligned on the street, with a garden at the back; the maison de maître rises a floor, often sits in a garden and offers reception rooms. The first is found in almost every neighbourhood, the second mostly in Caudéran, at the Jardin Public and in the neighbouring towns. Both read on the house median, €4,800/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026, the maison de maître most often trading above it.
An 18th-century country house, long and low, on one level or nearly so, built by the Bordeaux bourgeoisie amid vines and parks, in the Médoc, the Entre-deux-Mers or at the gates of the city. It rarely sells, often through an estate; Home Select looks for it through the notaires and the networks of the vineyards, and the Home Select guide to character homes describes it in detail.
No public statistic singles out this type of property: the DVF register counts it among houses, whose median stands at €4,800/m² across 1,037 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 reading benchmark, not an appraisal: the address, the floor area, the land, the view and the condition make the price of each property, and Home Select documents it sale by sale before any offer.
The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Bordeaux 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.
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 Bordeaux, the monitoring starts with two sectors: Triangle d’Or and Jardin Public, then Les Chartrons. That is often where the unfindable property is.
Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Bordeaux, 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, plus 10% of the negotiated reduction in both cases. Home Select is paid on success only, and also on what you save: nothing is due until you have bought.
