About A Place in France

Not Just another French property agent …

Exclusively New Build

Specialists in this field since 1988

We guide, advise, reassure and see your purchase through well beyond key handover. Our bilingual service in entirely free of charge.

At a time when renovating old houses in France was well documented, founder and managing director, Brittany born Patricia Fevrier, recognized the benefits of buying new property in France off plan.

“New is all we do and have ever done. New build property has become a real alternative to renovation offering the relaxed lifestyle we associate with French living at a turn of a key.

The benefits of buying new are many and attractive to potential buyers in France: Secure and simple buying procedure. Low legal costs and little maintenance. Stage payments with a pre-determined schedule. Excellent letting and resale potential with sustained capital growth. Small initial outlay with only 5% deposit required to reserve a property.

The French themselves have long recognized the benefits of new build and new build properties and custom built villas are fast becoming the largest proportion of properties for sale in France.

Since 1988 we have established ourselves as the true specialists in new build in France. This has allowed us to acquire a good understanding of our clients requirements. Location is always a vital element. We have first hand experience of the regions we feature and apply strict property selection criteria to the projects we offer. This is reflected in the contents of our property portfolio where priority is given to the quality of our developments rather than quantity.

And although we have over the years developed strong relationships with France’s foremost developers we do not necessarily commercialise all the projects they offer us if we feel they are not suitable for our clientele.

It is worth stressing that the properties which we feature are also on sale on the French market. This is part of the attraction and a key element in our selection.

Our properties are stylish, architect designed houses and apartments on residential developments with the advantage of “lock up and leave” low maintenance. The prices we quote are the same as on the French market.

As true specialists, we have full and practical knowledge of the off plan buying procedure in France. We assist our clients in all aspects of their new property purchase. Our ongoing bilingual assistance is completely free of charge and you can depend on our reliable after sales service.

There is much more to say about A Place in France and what we do, but it perhaps comes best from our clients.

A Place in France is not about hard sell. We seek to inform and provide our clients with objective guidance to help them make the right property decision.”
