The Paris real estate market
A dynamic real estate market with dizzying prices per m2, the Rue Faubourg Saint Honoré district is extremely popular with French and foreign customers, including those from the Middle East, North America and Brazil. Customers also come from European countries such as Italy, Luxembourg, Switzerland and Ireland.
French buyers are often families who live in the area, or clients from the provinces who are looking for a small surface area in Paris to work in for a few days a week. Since the health crisis, this trend has intensified with the development of telecommuting.
In the 8th arrondissement, the famous Golden Triangle is formed between Avenue de Georges V, Avenue des Champs-Élysées and Avenue Montaigne. In this area, customers are keen on typical Parisian Haussmann-style apartments. They appreciate the charm of sumptuous moldings and fireplaces, the presence of period parquet flooring and balconies, and sumptuous common areas, ideally equipped with an elevator and janitor. This search goes hand in hand with the proximity of a Parisian park for easy strolling.
Faubourg Saint Honoré: history and heritage
In the 12th century, in a bid to expand the rapidly growing city of Paris, King Philippe-Auguste annexed a number of surrounding fiefs and seigneuries. In 1356, the existing suburbs were integrated into Paris with the construction of a new city wall and gates. Among the new suburbs was the Faubourg Saint-Honoré.
Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, which runs through the 1st and 8th arrondissements, is one of Paris's oldest thoroughfares. Its name is directly linked to the former collegiate church of Saint-Honoré, which stood at its heart. At the crossroads of the legendary Place Vendôme, Palais-Royal, Les Halles and Madeleine districts, it is a popular tourist destination for its many points of interest. It's packed with listed monuments, such as the church of Saint-Roch, built between 1653 and 1722. Just off the rue Saint-Honoré are the must-see Musée du Louvre and Palais Royal, as well as the distinguished Jardin des Tuileries nearby.
All along Rue Saint-Honoré, French gastronomy is celebrated in numerous renowned gourmet restaurants, such as ONOR by celebrated chef Thierry Marx. Successful brands of the Hôtel Bristol include 114, Faubourg, a Michelin-starred brasserie, and the Epicure restaurant of Michelin-starred chef Eric Frecho.
The international renown of Sotheby's and its worldwide network of connected agencies ensures the recognition of a high-end clientele, convinced of the excellence of its services. Sotheby's is committed to supporting its customers in all their projects, and to remaining at their side for all their life events.
