The Blois market is that of a riverside prefecture on the Loire, driven by its heritage and by its position between Orléans and Tours. With an average price of around 1 794 €/m² for an apartment, Blois sits well below Tours and Orléans, while staying above the small towns of the Loir-et-Cher. Houses, at around 2 038 €/m², change hands above apartments: detached housing weighs heavily in local demand.
The gap between districts is the defining trait of this market. The residential west of Saint-Georges, the left bank of Vienne and the railway station area exceed 2 000 €/m². The large housing estates of the north and north-west, at Coty and Croix-Chevalier, remain below 1 200 €/m². Between the two, the town centre and Basilique hold most of the volume, with 73 and 57 sales a year respectively. With around 385 apartment sales a year across the town, the town average is reliable, but that of the least active districts varies from one year to the next.
With an average price of around 1 794 €/m², Blois is more affordable than Tours and Orléans, the two large neighbouring towns of the Loire Valley. Its heritage, its riverside setting on the Loire and its direct rail link to Paris make it a town sought after by families and first-time buyers of the Loir-et-Cher.
Blois grew on a hillside on the right bank of the Loire, between Orléans and Tours. The promontory of the château separates two former medieval boroughs, Le Puits-Châtel to the east and Le Bourg-Moyen to the west. Residence of several kings of France, the royal château and the spiral staircase of its François I wing fix the image of the town, together with the Saint-Louis cathedral, the Denis-Papin staircase that links the lower town to the upper town, and the Maison de la Magie Robert-Houdin, facing the château.
The Loire cuts the town in two and still shapes its social geography. On the left bank, Vienne is a former suburb of river boatmen and winegrowers, recognisable by its numbered footpaths running down to the river and by the Creusille quay. On the right bank, the town spread eastwards around the Notre-Dame-de-la-Trinité basilica, built in the 1930s in an Art Deco style, and northwards from the 1960s with the construction of large housing estates, at Croix-Chevalier, Kennedy, Coty and Les Sarrazines.
The geography of prices follows this history. The residential west, around Saint-Georges, the left bank of Vienne and the railway station area form the top of the market, above 2 000 €/m². The town centre and the Basilique district hold at around the town average. The large housing estates of the north and north-west, all designated priority urban policy neighbourhoods, sit below 1 200 €/m². The gap between the extremes is more than twofold.
The Blois market attracts first-time buyers, families and working people from the Loir-et-Cher, along with buyers from the Paris region looking for measured prices less than an hour and a half from Paris by train. Demand covers the houses of the residential districts of the west and of the left bank, the apartments of the centre and of the railway station area, and the most affordable housing of the northern districts. The heritage, the Loire, the services of a prefecture and the rail links support an active market, with around 385 apartment sales a year.
The average price in Blois is 1 794 €/m² for an apartment (actual DVF transactions, notarised sales), within a range of 1 383 to 2 181 €/m² depending on the district. Listing portals show asking prices, 10 to 20 % above the prices actually recorded at signing.
No, and the gap is wide. Saint-Georges, to the west, shows the highest prices, at around 2 246 €/m², while Croix-Chevalier, in the large housing estates of the north-west, remains the most affordable area, at around 1 038 €/m². The town centre sits at 1 982 €/m² and Vienne, on the left bank, at 2 032 €/m². From one end of the town to the other, the ratio is more than twofold.
Blois brings together a recognised heritage, with its royal château, its cathedral and its basilica, a riverside setting crossed by the Loire à Vélo cycle route, and prices well below those of the large towns of the region. Blois-Chambord station links the town to Paris-Austerlitz, Orléans and Tours. The average price, at around 1 794 €/m² for an apartment, stays far below that of Tours or Orléans.
Over five years, the Blois market has risen by around 8 % for apartments, with a dip over the last twelve months. The strongest five-year rises are in the districts that started from the lowest levels, such as Cabochon and Croix-Chevalier. With around 385 apartment sales a year, the town average is solid, even if that of some districts rests on few transactions.
The town average is not enough: in Blois more than elsewhere, you have to start from the price of your district, then adjust for the type of property, the storey, the condition, the aspect and the closeness of the Loire or of the centre. The gap between apartment and house also counts. The Immover valuation tool draws on the actual sales closest to your address.
