“Leigniel Immobilier covers “greater Burgundy”, that is, Burgundy itself as well as the surrounding area as far as the Loire River, to the north of Lyon and Besançon. It is a huge sector!”

“What is interesting about our region is that the architectural spectrum is so wide that we are able to find practically anything a client wants, whether it’s a hunting lodge, a presbytery or a vineyard.”

“In the field of religious architecture, the buildings in Burgundy are perfect. Here, religion was everywhere. It’s not rare, for example, to find Cistercian elements in private homes. Burgundy is an exceptional region because it features architecture from every era. It has just as many historical monuments as a country like Spain, and Dijon has the largest number of listed buildings in France after Paris.”

“Even if we are close to Paris and Lyon, Burgundy is still affordable. A very fine property sells for 2 to 5 million euros, except for exceptional products. A large property of character or a listed castle sells for 1 to 2 million euros. For a mansion or a small château with 500 sq.m. of living space and 2 hectares of grounds, the price ranges from 500,000 to 1 million euros. A large characterful country countryside is worth about 400,000 euros.”
