There are no statistics dedicated to farmhouses and barns: a renovated farmhouse sells like a country house with outbuildings and land, whereas a bare barn or a farm to renovate often sells well below. The most useful benchmark therefore remains the price of country houses.

A departmental average hides large gaps. A smallholding to renovate, a restored longère with its outbuildings, a farmhouse on several hectares of land or a manor house with parkland do not sell at the same price, and the location matters as much as the building: coastline, tourist area, peri-urban countryside close to a job market or deep countryside. The table below shows the median price of country houses in Haute-Saône (70) by type of municipality (cumulative sales from mid-2020 to 2025) and its change between 2021 and 2025.

The Comtois farmhouse, typical of Haute-Saône, gathers the dwelling, the cowshed and the hay barn under one long, steeply pitched roof, forming a single-block farm. A wide overhang often shelters the barn entrance, reached through a large cart door. More recent sheds and sometimes a separate hayloft complete the group on larger holdings. There are no mas in Haute-Saône.
This long, single-depth layout allows staged renovation, keeping the existing dwelling and later converting the barn into an extension or into gîtes, subject to planning zoning. The adjoining land, often hectares of pasture or woodland, suits livestock farming, horses or a permaculture project.
The plateau around Vesoul, Lure and Luxeuil-les-Bains has the widest choice of Comtois farms and barns to renovate, in a landscape of hedgerows and forests. The Saône valley, towards Gray and Port-sur-Saône, offers farms closer to main routes. The Mille Étangs plateau, towards Melisey and Faucogney-et-la-Mer, offers isolated buildings at more contained prices.
Around Vesoul, the county town and main job centre, well-located farmhouses sell somewhat above the departmental average. In the most rural areas, towards Champagney or the upper Ognon valley, supply stays plentiful and clearly more affordable, at the cost of distance from shops.
Check the permitted use of the building under the agricultural zone of the local plan: a farm barn can only become a home if it is listed for a change of use. Check the roof (machine tile, but also asbestos-cement commonly found on sheds), the massive timber frame of these large volumes, and the drainage, often missing on isolated farms.
If farmland is included, ask about any current farm lease and about the pre-emption right of the Safer. Finally, cost the renovation precisely: restoring a Comtois single-block farm along its full length is often a substantial undertaking.
