Auvergne Property

This part of the Massif Central in France is an ideal location for a holiday home – and, whether ready to move into or ripe for renovation, Auvergne property is very affordable to the overseas buyer.
The most expensive Auvergne properties are in the departement of Haute-Loire, in the southeast of the region. Its capital, Le Puy-en-Velay, is an ancient settlement on the pilgrim route to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Dominated by volcanic peaks, it’s a charming town in an area of diverse scenery and many lovely villages. Nature lovers will be attracted to property in Auvergne in the area around Ambert, to the east, in the centre of the Livradois-Forez parklands.
Around the fashionable spa town of Vichy, in the north of Auvergne, is a clutch of historic towns such as Gannat and Moulins. Right in the centre of the region is its historic capital, Clermont-Ferrand, now a bustling university town in an area of lakes, farming and (extinct!) volcanic mountains.
The key point to buying Auvergne property is its year-round choice of activities – there’s skiing, fishing, ballooning, canoeing and beautiful, varied landscapes for walking and hiking. Though perhaps not one of the most convenient regions to reach, its outstanding beauty and reasonable prices of Auvergne property for sale means that Auvergne property should not be overlooked. It also enjoys one of France’s lowest crime rates.
