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 Territoire de Belfort (90) by type of municipality (cumulative sales from mid-2020 to 2025) and its change between 2021 and 2025.

The traditional farmhouse of Territoire de Belfort follows the regional block layout: the dwelling, the cowshed and the barn are gathered under one shallow-pitched, tile-covered roof, with a wide cart porch giving direct access to the threshing floor. On the edge of villages you will also find later outbuildings in stone and brick, including agricultural sheds. There is no mas here: the term has no local reality, the traditional name staying simply 'ferme'.
These volumes under a single ridge convert well into a single home with workshop space or into several gîtes, subject to planning zoning and a building permit. The adjoining land, often modest on the plain but more generous towards the first hills, can carry pasture for horses or a modest permaculture project on a few hectares.
Around Belfort itself, rural stock is scarce, the town concentrating most of the urbanisation of the Savoureuse valley. Towards Delle and the Swiss border, and around Beaucourt and Grandvillars, farmhouses and barns to renovate are easier to find, in a network of farming villages. To the north, around Giromagny and Rougemont-le-Château, the Vosges relief is already noticeable, with more isolated buildings in the valley floor.
Areas close to Belfort itself and to the roads towards Montbéliard stay clearly above the department average, while the more outlying villages of the Belfort Sundgau offer more affordable prices for comparable agricultural volumes.
Check the permitted use of the buildings against the local plan: a barn classed in an agricultural zone can only be converted into a home if a change of use has been explicitly authorised. Check the roof (old tiles, but also asbestos-cement sheets on more recent sheds), the timber frame, often tired on the large Franche-Comté volumes, and the state of the drainage.
If land is attached, ask about any current farm lease and about the pre-emption right of the Safer. Also get the renovation costed before signing: bringing a Franche-Comté barn up to standard often needs a budget comparable to the purchase price itself.
