The Quimper town centre around the cathedral of Saint-Corentin. Google Maps.
The Quimper town centre occupies the historic heart of the prefecture town, between the Steïr and the Odet. It is laid out around the cathedral of Saint-Corentin, among the oldest Gothic cathedrals in Brittany, whose construction began in the thirteenth century and whose spires date from the nineteenth.
The old town spreads out in front of the cathedral, between the two rivers. Once favoured by canons and nobles, it keeps an intact layout of medieval lanes and many timber-framed houses with wooden or stone fronts. The pedestrian shopping streets concentrate shops, terraces and restaurants, while the bishops' palace bears witness to the town's past.
The building stock is mainly old, in stone and timber framing, with characterful buildings that make the value of the area. That combination of heritage, shops and life, on the banks of the rivers, sustains strong demand and one of the highest price levels in the town.
The town centre attracts buyers drawn to the character of older property and to local life: working buyers looking to be right beside the shops, first-time buyers on mid-sized homes, and purchasers attached to the heritage character of the old town. The old timber-framed stock, often without a lift or parking, steers demand towards buyers ready to put location and historic charm first.
