A regional average also hides large gaps between municipalities. 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 Nouvelle-Aquitaine by type of municipality (cumulative sales from mid-2020 to 2025) and its change between 2021 and 2025.

Nouvelle-Aquitaine is the largest region in France. It stretches from the Massif Central to the Atlantic Ocean and from the Pyrenees to the Poitou plains. This vast geographical area offers a unique variety of landscapes and climates, which is directly reflected in the richness of the local rural real estate. If you are looking for a country house or a life project in the countryside, this region is an endless playground for lovers of authenticity.
Made up of twelve départements, the region offers very distinctive terroirs. You can focus your search on Dordogne (24), famous for its manor houses and golden stone, or on Gironde (33) and its wine estates. Those who appreciate absolute peace and quiet and attractive prices will gladly turn to Creuse (23), Corrèze (19) or Haute-Vienne (87), which form the former Limousin. Lot-et-Garonne (47) is often nicknamed the “French Tuscany” for its rolling hills, while Landes (40) and Pyrénées-Atlantiques (64) offer proximity to both ocean and mountains. Let’s not forget Charente (16) and Charente-Maritime (17) with their gentle way of life, as well as Deux-Sèvres (79) and Vienne (86), which combine heritage and accessibility.
Rural real estate in Nouvelle-Aquitaine is characterised by the predominance of the stone house and the stone building. Vernacular architecture changes from one département to another, offering a wide range of styles. You can thus find a farm for sale in the heart of the bocage, a typical longhouse in farming areas or a character house nestled in a medieval village.
For those with ambitious plans, the region is full of opportunities. It is common to find a barn to renovate or a farmstead requiring complete restoration. These properties often make it possible to acquire a property with land of significant size on a reasonable budget, ideal for creating a gîte or an agricultural activity. If you dream of self-sufficiency, a former farmstead with its outbuildings can become the ideal place to live.
The region is also crossed by numerous waterways, which explains the regular presence of watermills on the market. These unusual properties, often located riverside, are appealing for their bucolic charm. For those who are above all looking for a green setting, Nouvelle-Aquitaine offers unspoilt nature where it is still possible to acquire an isolated house guaranteeing total tranquillity.
On www.ma-propriete.fr, we have designed a search engine specifically adapted to the particularities of the rural world. Acquiring a property in the countryside is not just about the number of bedrooms or the living area. It is often the surrounding environment that triggers the crush.
Thanks to our advanced filters, you can select precise criteria such as surface area in hectares. Whether you are looking for a modest large garden for your vegetable patch or a large plot to accommodate horses, our tool allows you to target relevant listings. You can also specifically search for leisure land if you simply want a place to unwind at weekends, without a main dwelling.
Water is a central element in many rural projects. Our portal allows you to quickly identify properties with a private pond, a well or located on the banks of a waterway. Similarly, if you are looking for an unobstructed view over the valleys or a property not overlooked, these features are highlighted in our listings.
We know that renovation is at the heart of many purchase plans in rural areas. That is why you can filter the results to specifically find a house in need of renovation, a ruin to restore or a complete renovation project. Conversely, if you prefer to move straight in, you can target renovated properties with old-world charm, such as houses with exposed beams and original floor tiles.
To make sure you don’t miss any opportunities, we invite you to create personalised email alerts. As soon as a sheepfold, a hamlet for sale or a house matching your criteria is posted online by a professional or a private seller, you are notified. The geolocation of listings allows you to place the property in its surroundings (proximity to cities such as Bordeaux, Limoges, Poitiers or Pau), while respecting the level of confidentiality desired by some sellers.
Do you own a property in Nouvelle-Aquitaine and want to sell it? Whether it is a second home or your main residence, ma-propriete.fr is the ideal showcase to reach a qualified audience. Unlike generalist portals, our visitors are specifically looking for rural housing and a lifestyle focused on the countryside.
Selling a rural property requires a different approach from selling a city apartment. Buyers are looking for a story, a potential. By publishing your listing on our site, you benefit from the enhancement of your heritage. Assets such as an orchard, hectares of woodland or meadows, or the architecture of a stone house are priority search criteria for our users.
We offer great flexibility in managing confidentiality. You can choose the level of geolocation of your property. This is a crucial point in rural areas where discretion is often important. You can indicate the exact municipality or simply a broader area, thus protecting your property from the merely curious while attracting serious buyers.
Moreover, your listing is not confined to a single box. A farm for sale may interest a farmer, but also a family looking for a large house, or a tourism investor. Thanks to our multi-category system, your property can appear simultaneously in the “Country house”, “Farm” or “Equestrian property” sections if it meets the criteria, thereby maximising your chances of selling.
We also widely distribute listings on social networks, particularly through Facebook groups specialising in rural and character properties, thus reaching an active community passionate about country living. The simplicity of posting a listing and the possibility of being contacted directly by buyers (without an intermediary if you wish, or via your estate agent) streamline the sales process.
Our mission does not stop at simply publishing listings. We want to support all stakeholders in the rural world in their projects.
If you need professional support to sell or buy, particularly for complex properties such as agricultural or forestry estates, we offer a connection service with rural property professionals. These experts know the local market in Nouvelle-Aquitaine and its legal specificities perfectly. You can submit a connection request directly on our platform.
Pricing is often the most delicate step, especially when it involves undeveloped land or unusual buildings. To help you get a clearer picture, we offer land valuation studies that will enable you to better understand the value of your land and property.
Finally, we provide you with numerous resources to help you make a success of your project. Our blog is full of advice articles on renovation, rural taxation and property management. We particularly recommend reading our buying guides, such as the one dedicated to farms. To go even further, don’t hesitate to consult our thematic white papers.
By choosing ma-propriete.fr, you choose an expert partner, passionate about rural life and committed to the vitality of the territories of Nouvelle-Aquitaine.
