In Beaussais-sur-Mer, apartments sell on average at around 3 498 €/m², based on DVF transactions registered before notaries (DVF is the French record of notarised property sales). That level reflects the appeal of a municipality of the Côte d'Émeraude, a few kilometres from Dinard and Saint-Malo, without the prices of the most highly rated resorts on the coast. The stock is dominated by houses, but the supply of apartments, carried by the town of Ploubalay and the recent schemes, attracts year-round residents and second-home buyers alike. Closeness to the sea and the bays, quick access to the hubs of Dinard and Saint-Malo and a setting between countryside and coast support demand. The location within the municipality, the condition of the property, the floor level and the distance to the town centre and the coast weigh on the value of a dwelling.

The Beaussais-sur-Mer market benefits from its position on the Côte d'Émeraude and from the closeness of Dinard and Saint-Malo. Houses account for most sales, but the apartments of the town of Ploubalay and of the recent schemes find buyers among year-round residents as well as second-home purchasers. Demand goes beyond the local area alone, carried by the general appeal of the Breton Channel coast.
Several factors support that level of values. Closeness to the sea, quick access to the hubs of Dinard and Saint-Malo and a preserved setting between countryside and coast sustain steady demand. Conversely, the absence of a built seafront comparable to that of the large resorts and the partly rural character of the municipality cap the rise and explain prices below those of the most highly rated resorts in the area.
Beaussais-sur-Mer sits above Pleurtuit, its neighbour closer to the interior, but below the most highly rated resorts on the coast. It remains clearly behind Saint-Cast-le-Guildo and, still more, Dinard, whose seaside markets are among the most expensive on the Côte d'Émeraude.
Beaussais-sur-Mer is a recent municipality: it was created on 1 January 2017 by the merger of three neighbouring municipalities of the Côtes-d'Armor, Ploubalay, Trégon and Plessix-Balisson. Ploubalay, the most populated, holds its main town. That creation of a new municipality brought together under a single name old towns, long separate, sharing the same coastal hinterland.
The territory opens onto the bay of Beaussais and onto the Côte d'Émeraude, that Channel coastline known for its resorts and its maritime landscapes. Historically rural and turned towards farming, the founding municipalities gradually benefited from the closeness of the sea and the rise of seaside tourism, which made this area a popular holiday destination.
Ploubalay remains known for its former water tower, long fitted out as a panoramic viewpoint overlooking the region. Part of the Côte d'Émeraude community of municipalities, Beaussais-sur-Mer today combines lively town centres, a setting of countryside and coast, and the immediate closeness of the hubs of Dinard and Saint-Malo, strengths that shape its residential market.
Beaussais-sur-Mer has 4 498 inhabitants. A new municipality of the Côte d'Émeraude, it brings together a year-round population and a notable share of second homes, in an area close to Dinard and Saint-Malo. Buyers split between local and Breton households, families looking for a setting between countryside and sea, and second-home buyers drawn by the coast without the prices of the most highly rated resorts. Houses dominate the stock, but the supply of apartments in the town of Ploubalay and in the recent schemes answers demand for a main residence as well as for a holiday base.
The average apartment price in Beaussais-sur-Mer is 3 498 €/m², based on DVF transactions actually completed before notaries. That average covers varied situations depending on the location within the municipality, closeness to the coast and the town centre, the condition of the property and the floor level. A well-placed recent apartment and an older dwelling in need of renovation do not sell at the same level.
Beaussais-sur-Mer lies on the Côte d'Émeraude, in the Côtes-d'Armor, only a few kilometres from Dinard and a short distance from Saint-Malo. The municipality borders the bay of Beaussais and enjoys quick access to the coast and to those two hubs. That position between countryside and sea is one of the drivers of its residential appeal.
Yes. Beaussais-sur-Mer is a new municipality created on 1 January 2017 by the merger of Ploubalay, Trégon and Plessix-Balisson. The main town is at Ploubalay, the largest of the three. That arrangement brings together several former villages, which explains the variety of areas and property types found across the municipality.
Partly. The closeness of the Côte d'Émeraude and of resorts such as Dinard feeds second-home demand, alongside a year-round resident population. That twofold nature sustains a steady turnover of sales. Seasonal letting projects are subject to local rules that should be checked with the town hall before buying.
The stock is dominated by houses, often with a garden, spread between the former town centres and the countryside. The supply of apartments is concentrated in Ploubalay and in the recent schemes, sought after more for an affordable main residence or a base close to the sea. The choice depends on your project and on how close to the coast and the shops you want to be.
