Paris 19e, Île-de-France
Île-de-France · Paris
Water and hills: the Canal de l’Ourcq and the bassin de la Villette, the Buttes-Chaumont and their suspended bridges, the Philharmonie and the Cité des sciences. The 19th, long the far end of Paris, posted in 2025 the sharpest rebound in the capital, 4.3% over one year, without losing its gentle prices.

Paris 19e at a glance
01The market
In 2025, 1,693 sales were recorded in Paris 19th: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses.
The median for apartments has moved -12% since 2021 and +4.3% over one year: a market correcting, address by address.
Sales range from €5,900/m² to €11,100/m²: address and condition make the price.
The median stands at €8,200/m² in 2025, up 4.3% over one year, the sharpest rebound in the capital, after a low of €7,900/m² in 2024 and a slide from €9,300/m² in 2021: the north-east is catching up. First decile at €5,900/m², the lowest in Paris, ninth at €11,100/m².
1,693 sales in 2025, an average floor area of 46.1 sqm, within 52 days: buyers view widely, compare and negotiate. The canal quays, the small houses of the Amérique plateau and the recent estates near the park draw the fastest decisions.
The very young stock, barely 11.9% predating 1919, shifts vigilance towards the charges of the 1980s-2000s estates and the voted works. With 27% owners, the lowest share in Paris, building life depends largely on landlords: accounts and rules are read closely.

02The neighbourhoods
Four quarters, water in common: the bassin, the buttes, the villas, the docks.
The parc de la Villette, the Cité des sciences and the Géode, the guinguettes of the bassin: the great meeting place of north-east Paris, with recent estates and former warehouses converted along rue de l’Ourcq.
The parc des Buttes-Chaumont, its cliffs and its temple de la Sibylle, overlooks a quarter of brick and workshops; the turning bridge of rue de Crimée, the only one in Paris, recalls the canal nearby.
The villas of the plateau, the shared gardens and the parc de la Butte-du-Chapeau-Rouge draw a discreet low-rise landscape: townhouses and small buildings rarely seen listed.
The CentQuatre, its backstage and public rehearsals, and the Magasins généraux turned into offices and studios: a quarter in permanent construction, where the new is negotiated charges included.
Between the locks and the quays, old and new buildings watch the water: terrace tables in summer, Sunday market. A one-bedroom with a canal-facing balcony, to be compared for floor and aspect, the light changing from bank to bank.
Houses, lanes and gardens around the rue de Mouzaïa: planted alleys one would not think Parisian. Small rare houses, to be examined with the history of subdivisions and the planning rules of private roads.
Around the CentQuatre and the former docks, recent schemes rise: balconies, parking, recent standards, steps from the tramway. The favourite segment of international executives discovering north-east Paris.
Three buying profiles to place your own in Paris 19th. Orientation pointers, which your property finder refines with you at the brief.
Hesitating between two neighbourhoods in Paris 19th, or between an apartment and a house? Home Select compares them for you, sale by sale and on video pre-viewings, before having you travel.

03Living and buying
In summer the 19th lives at the water’s edge: pedalos and open-air dances on the bassin de la Villette, lawns in the Buttes-Chaumont, ice creams at the guinguettes. In winter the Philharmonie and the Cité des sciences take over, and the canal keeps rippling, from barges to joggers.
Families find here the space the centre no longer sells: neighbourhood squares, shared gardens on the Amérique plateau, and the great parc des Buttes-Chaumont, cliffs and waterfall included, two minutes from the local schools.
Three projects, three markets
The 19th shows the lowest median in Paris and the strongest twelve-month rebound: the geography of La Villette, the Canal de l’Ourcq and the Buttes-Chaumont has shifted the demand of young families and makers. Letting is tight, students and professionals first. Buying demands rigorous quarter sorting: atmospheres vary from street to street.
The 19th is no resort market, but the Canal de l’Ourcq and the Buttes-Chaumont attract a first leisure purchase: the weekend flat of Western Parisians, kayak and philharmonic included. The capital’s lowest median makes the idea credible. Check the Sunday-evening return transport: line 5 and the tram do the work.
Settling in the 19th is choosing the Paris of parks and water: the Buttes-Chaumont, the canal, La Villette and its halls, from the Zénith to the Philharmonie. Schools multiply with the arriving families. Line 5, line 7 and the tram serve the arrondissement: the trade-off rests on real journeys, not on the map.
04From abroad
The 19th opens with its lines 5 and 7, reaching the Gare du Nord in a few stops and the centre via the Gare de l’Est respectively, with line 7bis and tramway T3b linking the Porte de la Villette to Les Lilas and the Garigliano bridge around the edge of Paris. The nearby Gare du Nord and Gare de l’Est put Roissy half an hour away and London just over two. The Ourcq canal and its basins can be walked all the way to the parc de la Villette: for a buyer from afar, this is a Paris of water, gardens and stages.
The Philharmonie and the Cité de la musique draw orchestras and music lovers from around the world, the CentQuatre hosts international artists in residence, and the guinguettes of the basins bring a young and polyglot crowd all summer. Researchers and students of the Sorbonne nouvelle and neighbouring schools add to it, often tenants before becoming owners. The 27 per cent owner share marks a still rental quarter, where foreigners discover a median of 8,200 euros per square metre: Home Select spots the rising streets and the buildings to avoid.
Sixteen hundred and ninety-three sales a year and a rise of more than four per cent, the strongest in Paris: the market of the 19th is moving. The guinguette season, April to September, makes the quarter seductive exactly when families view the most. Autumn and late winter see investors’ files progress, drawn by still moderate rents. To view without crowds, prefer weekday mornings; to negotiate, January.

09Your project
The questions common to every city (purchase costs, remote search, choosing your finder) are gathered on one page: all the frequently asked questions.
Because the local market has its own rules. 4.3% over one year: the sharpest rebound in Paris in 2025. A property finder works for you alone, on the buyer’s side: daily monitoring, access to off-market sales, strict shortlisting and negotiation. Since 2011, Home Select has run more than 1,200 searches with this method, rated 4.8/5 on Google.
Based on actual recorded sales (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, April 2026 release, 2025 sales), the median price in Paris 19th stands at €8,200/m² for an apartment. These medians are market benchmarks, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.
The median stands at €8,200/m² on 2025 sales: a 40 sqm one-bedroom trades around €328,000, and half of the sales fall between €5,900 and €11,100/m² depending on proximity to the canal, the park and the metro.
Nobody knows: after a 4.3% rise in 2025, it remains among the lowest prices in Paris, and the parks, the canal and the facilities make it a quarter that improves gently. We recommend buying to live, not to extrapolate.
In 2025, 1,693 sales were recorded in Paris 19th: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses. The median for apartments has moved -12% since 2021 and +4.3% over one year: a market correcting, address by address.
Home Select completes its searches in 45 days on average, with 3 viewings on the client side instead of 40 and about fifteen hours of your time. In Paris 19e, the exact calendar depends on how rare the target property is: it is framed at the brief, then held.
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 Paris 19e, the monitoring starts with two sectors: Villette and the bassin, then Combat and the Buttes-Chaumont. That is often where the unfindable property is.
The quays offer what the centre no longer sells: water, trees and guinguettes on foot. In return, canal addresses go fast and trade above the median: monitoring and pre-visiting make the difference.
The Villette plays big park, concerts and science; the Buttes-Chaumont play cliffs, temple and brick. The medians follow each other; the weekends look nothing alike.
Not necessarily, but the tramway and the metros do not cover everything: families often keep a car for outer suburbs and Saturday shopping. The basement parking adds value at resale.
The new, charges included, offers lift and insulation; the old offers workshops and houses unfindable elsewhere. The right choice depends on the works budget: we cost it before the offer.
Home Select, a property finder in Paris 19th, 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.
