Montplaisir, a hillside district in the south-west of Narbonne. Google Maps.
Montplaisir occupies the south-west of the municipality of Narbonne, on the hillsides that look out over the town. The area, long farmed and planted with vines, was built up from the 1970s onwards through successive housing developments, with Les Roches Grises, Le Réveillon, Le Pastouret and Les Hauts de Narbonne.
The district stretches far to the south-west, as far as the Fontfroide massif and the abbey of Sainte-Marie de Fontfroide, a former Cistercian abbey within the municipality. To the north-east, it takes in the Plaisance area and the Croix Sud and La Coupe retail park, the main shopping hub of the urban area.
On the market, Montplaisir sits at around 2 363 €/m² for an apartment, slightly above the town average, on a volume of about 41 sales per year. The area remains dominated by individual houses: apartments here are concentrated in a few developments, which makes the average sensitive to the mix of sales. The district's long series is distorted by 2021, whose very small sample comes out at around 3 560 €/m², a level never seen since. The five-year fall shown is therefore a sampling effect and not a market decline: since 2022 the district's price has been stable, between 2 300 and 2 400 €/m².

The five-year fall shown is therefore a sampling effect and not a market decline. Since 2022 the price has been stable between 2 300 and 2 400 €/m², and the 2024 and 2025 levels are sound: the district average stands at around 2 363 €/m² over the last two years, up about 3 % over twelve months, on a volume of about 41 sales per year.
