Presentation of the Bordeaux agency
Founded in 2002 by Anne-Valérie Colas, the Bordeaux real estate agency formerly known as Demeures et Vignobles was already a benchmark in high-end real estate for its elitist clientele. In 2006, it joined the Sotheby's International Realty network and was renamed Bordeaux Sotheby's International Realty.
Located in the heart of Bordeaux, the real estate agency proudly faces the Public Garden, in an enchanting and privileged setting for its clientele. Housed in a 19th-century building and respecting the codes of yesteryear, the agency stands out for its elegant, bourgeois style.
Comprising multilingual professionals, the Bordeaux agency team caters to the needs of customers looking for exceptional properties, also in the wine-growing area.
Offering an extensive selection of prestige properties ranging from high-end apartments to historic châteaux, wine estates and exceptional houses, the Bordeaux branch prides itself on providing high-quality services such as property buying and selling, property valuations and legal advice in the Gironde department.
The Bordeaux real estate market
The Bordeaux region's real estate market is attracting a great deal of interest due to its idyllic living environment, combining charming green spaces with mild weather. While the construction of the high-speed rail link between Paris and Bordeaux in 2017 generated strong demand for real estate, it was the health crisis that produced the greatest growth, a trend that continues to this day. The property market remains buoyant, with levels of demand similar to those seen before the epidemic.
The communes around Bordeaux are highly sought-after, particularly Bouliac and Latresne to the south. Areas with good connectivity and easy mobility have been particularly sought-after since 2022, with proximity to the train station and airport being essential criteria for most customers.
Since the pandemic, the most sought-after properties have been those offering one or more outdoor entrances, such as residences with patios, gardens, balconies or terraces that meet the ambitions of a demanding clientele. The property portfolio is part of a highly selective niche in high-end real estate, and very often features exclusive properties.
Bordeaux: history and heritage
Set amid vineyards and close to the ocean, Bordeaux rises majestically on the banks of the Garonne River. The city is surrounded by wine-growing regions such as Médoc, Saint-Émilion, Côtes de BourLa g, Blaye, Pomerol and Sauternais.
In the 18th century, Bordeaux enjoyed a prosperous period marked by a transition from the medieval to the neoclassical style. The city boasts more preserved historic monuments than many other French cities. Bordeaux is famous for its imposing architecture and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
There are three establishments to discover in Bordeaux: “Madame Pang”, a restaurant and cocktail bar, “La Pointe”, a place offering an exceptional gastronomic experience and “La Table du Lavoir - Les sources de Caudalie”. It would be unforgivable not to mention the enchanting village of Saint-Émilion, a resort territory to be explored by lovers of exquisite food.
Bordeaux Sotheby's International Realty is committed to providing excellent service to satisfy the highest customer expectations. The agency benefits from the exceptional resources of its international network to support the real estate projects of a clientele of the highest standing.
