Presentation of the Paris Ouest Auteuil branch
In the heart of the 16th arrondissement, the Paris Ouest Sotheby's International Realty - Auteuil luxury real estate agency was inaugurated in 2020. Supported by a close-knit group of seven agencies dedicated to the West of Paris, it benefits from strong synergies, notably with the Avenue de Victor Hugo, Neuilly and Boulogne agencies.
The Paris Ouest Sotheby's International Realty - Auteuil office welcomes owners and buyers in a refined setting, in the heart of the Rue d'Auteuil and facing the Place d'Auteuil and its market. A reception area directs you either to a chat room to meet the agency's staff, or to a discreet office for privacy and absolute confidentiality.
The agency has grown steadily since its creation, both in terms of the number of staff - now 7 plus an assistant - and in terms of sales and transaction volume. The staff at the Auteuil office are all bilingual, offering customers the opportunity to communicate in French, English, Italian and Spanish.
All consultants have at least 6 years' experience in high-end property transactions, and work as a team with a high degree of synergy.
The Auteuil office offers a transaction service as well as a rental service for high-end properties.
The Auteuil office offers prestigious apartments with rare features, in antique styles with parquet floors, moldings and fireplaces, or modern with optimized floor plans and vast exteriors. Private mansions nestled in ultra-discreet and secure private lanes, with intimate gardens, will provide you with a confidential atmosphere.
The Auteuil branch will support its customers in acquiring private mansions of around 600m², entire buildings of around 1,000m² for investor clients, or prestigious apartments of over 250m² for families.
The Paris Ouest Auteuil real estate market
The high-end real estate market in Auteuil, from rue de Passy to Porte de St Cloud, is made up mainly of large family apartments, close to the many renowned schools such as Jean Baptiste Say, St Jean de Passy, Janson de Sailly and Franklin. The buildings are mostly handsome, Haussmann-style ashlar blocks.
Villas and private mansions, depending on their location, will appeal either to wealthy foreign clients looking for discreet, quality addresses with the assurance of absolute security, or to French families wanting to be close to the best Parisian colleges and lycées.
Apartments on the edge of the Bois de Boulogne attract customers looking for outdoor living or a location that combines the shops of rue d'Auteuil or avenue Mozart with the proximity of the Bois or parks (jardins du Ranelagh, square Rodin, parc Sainte Perrine) for outdoor activities.
Paris: history and heritage
In the 7th century, a village called Nijon stretched along the Seine between Paris and Saint-Cloud. The village belonged to Saint-Bertrand, bishop of Le Mans. After his death, it was abandoned. The inhabitants of Nijon moved towards Paris, attracted by the springs and marshes, and founded a new village called Auteuil. It was to have a railway station, a church, a cemetery, a market and a main street lined with small shops.
At the end of 1859, the commune of Paris annexed the village of Auteuil, along with all the other communes within the Paris city limits. Together with Passy and Neuilly, they form small suburbs of the capital and districts of the new XVIth arrondissement. From the 17th century onwards, Auteuil became a popular holiday resort for the nobility and bourgeoisie, attracted by its verdant setting, renowned water springs and ideal location between springs and forest.
Today, the Village d'Auteuil is defined by its cosy yet charming atmosphere. The atmosphere of this small Parisian village, with its green spaces, quiet flower-filled streets, private villas and exceptional Art Nouveau architecture, is highly sought-after. It is greatly appreciated by French and foreign clients looking for private villas and lanes, close to renowned schools.
To soak up the typical atmosphere of the village of Auteuil and sample delicious French cuisine, there are a number of addresses not to be missed: the Village d'Auteuil, a typical Parisian brasserie, the historic Mouton Blanc, and the cosy Restaurant Honoré.
The Paris Ouest Sotheby's International Realty - Auteuil agency offers a brand known and recognized throughout the world, thanks to its historical affiliation with the auction house, and thus assures foreign as well as French customers of a culture of discretion, a heritage of confidentiality and a know-how of unostentatious luxury.
