The average price for apartments in Roscoff stands at 3 593 €/m², based on the DVF transactions registered before notaries. A harbour of the Léon set on the Channel, in the Finistère, the municipality has lived from the sea for centuries, between fishing, sea links to England and Ireland, thalassotherapy and tourism. Its old centre of granite shipowners' houses faces the île de Batz. The market mixes main residences and seafront pied-à-terre homes. The value of a property depends on closeness to the harbour and to the beaches, on the view, on the condition of the dwelling and on the sector.

The Roscoff market is supported by demand for second homes on a characterful harbour of the Léon coast, where the supply of properties close to the sea remains limited.
The strength of the municipality lies in its maritime heritage and in its very recognisable seafront setting. The limit lies in the seasonality of the market and in the distance from the large employment areas, which reserves part of the stock for second-home use.
Roscoff sits above the inland towns of the northern Finistère and comes close to the sought-after seaside resorts of the Breton coast.
Roscoff grew rich from the Renaissance onwards through maritime trade and privateering, as the shipowners' houses of carved granite in its old centre still show.
The municipality is also the home of the Johnnies, those sellers of pink onions who crossed the Channel to sell their harvest, and a leading place for marine biology and thalassotherapy.
With 3 334 permanent inhabitants, Roscoff remains a living harbour, animated by the links to the île de Batz and to England, and its population swells sharply during the season.
Roscoff has 3 334 year-round inhabitants and its market mixes permanent residents and second-home buyers drawn by the shore. Retired people, Breton families and lovers of the coast look here for the characterful house of the old centre or the apartment with a view over the Channel. Demand for a pied-à-terre supports prices, in particular near the harbour and the beaches. Buyers value the charm of the granite harbour, the mildness of the Léon climate, water sports and the sea access to the île de Batz and to England.
The average price for apartments in Roscoff is 3 593 €/m², based on the DVF transactions completed before notaries. That level, above the one in the hinterland of the Léon, varies with closeness to the harbour and to the beaches, with the view and with the condition of the property.
Yes. The seaside appeal of the harbour and of its beaches draws a pied-à-terre clientele, which supports prices compared with the inland municipalities of the Léon, where the market remains more local.
Its granite shipowners' houses, its church and its immediate closeness to the harbour give it a character that is rare on this coast. These properties of character facing the sea trade clearly above the more recent sectors set back from the shore.
The municipality has a harbour with sea links to England and Ireland and remains close to Morlaix and its railway station. That accessibility, by land and by sea, adds to its residential and tourist appeal.
The average price of 3 593 €/m² gives a benchmark, but closeness to the harbour and to the sea changes the value of a property a great deal. Immover relies on real DVF sales to offer you a free valuation suited to your dwelling.
