How do property prices vary by neighborhood in Burgundy in 2026?
Dijon and its western suburbs have some of the strongest Burgundy property prices in 2026 because buyers pay for transport, jobs, hospitals, universities and daily convenience. A typical home in Dijon centre ranges from about €180,000 to €420,000, or about $208,000 to $486,000, while Fontaine-lès-Dijon often ranges from about €280,000 to €650,000, or about $324,000 to $752,000.
Beaune and the Côte de Beaune villages are more expensive because the market is small, attractive and supported by wine tourism. A typical home in Beaune ranges from about €240,000 to €750,000, or about $278,000 to $868,000, while Meursault and Pommard can range from about €450,000 to €1,800,000, or about $521,000 to $2,083,000.
Nevers, Autun, Le Creusot and Montceau-les-Mines are much more affordable because local incomes are lower and many homes need renovation or energy work. Typical homes in these Burgundy towns often range from about €55,000 to €240,000, or about $64,000 to $278,000.

How much more do you pay for properties in Burgundy when you include renovation work, taxes, and fees?
In Burgundy in 2026, a normal old-property buyer should usually budget about 10% to 20% above the purchase price for acquisition costs and light work, while a real renovation can lift the total extra budget to 25% to 60% or more.
For a Burgundy property bought around $200,000, or about €173,000, a buyer might add about €20,000 to €50,000, or about $23,000 to $58,000, for acquisition costs, basic checks and light renovation. This would bring the all-in cost to roughly €193,000 to €223,000, or about $223,000 to $258,000.
For a Burgundy property bought around $500,000, or about €432,000, a buyer might add about €55,000 to €140,000, or about $64,000 to $162,000, depending on the condition and whether the agency fee is included. This would bring the all-in cost to roughly €487,000 to €572,000, or about $564,000 to $662,000.
For a Burgundy property bought around $1,000,000, or about €864,000, a buyer might add about €100,000 to €300,000, or about $116,000 to $347,000, especially for a stone house or wine-country property needing upgrades. This would bring the all-in cost to roughly €964,000 to €1,164,000, or about $1,116,000 to $1,347,000.
By the way, we keep updated a blog article detailing the property taxes and fees to factor in the total buying cost in France.
Meanwhile, here is a detailed table of the additional expenses you may have to pay when buying a new property in Burgundy
| Extra cost | Type | Estimated cost range in Burgundy |
|---|---|---|
| Notary and acquisition costs for an old home | Fees and taxes | Usually 7% to 8% of the purchase price. On a €200,000 home, this is about €14,000 to €16,000, or about $16,000 to $19,000. This is paid on top of the agreed property price. |
| Notary and acquisition costs for a new home | Fees and taxes | Usually 2% to 3% of the purchase price. On a €300,000 new home, this is about €6,000 to €9,000, or about $7,000 to $10,000. This is one reason new-build homes can be attractive even when the price per square meter is higher. |
| Agency fee, if buyer-paid | Fees | Often about 3% to 6% of the purchase price. On a €250,000 Burgundy home, this means about €7,500 to €15,000, or about $9,000 to $17,000. Always check whether the listed price includes the agency fee. |
| Light refresh | Renovation | Usually about €300 to €700 per square meter, or about $347 to $810 per square meter. This can cover paint, floors, small repairs and basic cosmetic work. It does not cover major structural upgrades. |
| Standard renovation | Renovation | Often about €800 to €1,500 per square meter, or about $926 to $1,736 per square meter. This can cover kitchens, bathrooms, heating updates and more serious interior work. Many older Burgundy houses fall into this category. |
| Heavy renovation or structural work | Renovation | Often about €1,800 to more than €3,000 per square meter, or about $2,083 to more than $3,472 per square meter. This applies when the roof, structure, insulation, heating or layout needs deep work. Large stone houses can become expensive quickly. |
| Energy upgrades | Renovation and compliance | Often about €10,000 to €60,000, or about $12,000 to $69,000. The cost depends on insulation, heating, windows and the current energy rating. This is one of the biggest risks in older Burgundy homes. |
| Survey, diagnostics review and legal checks | Due diligence | Usually about €500 to €2,000, or about $600 to $2,300. This helps a buyer understand building condition, energy performance and legal risks. It is a small cost compared with a bad renovation surprise. |
| Moving, furniture and setup | Setup | Often about €5,000 to €30,000, or about $5,800 to $34,700. This includes furniture, equipment, utilities, small repairs and first-month setup. Foreign buyers should keep a larger buffer if the home is not furnished. |
We separated seller price from buyer all-in cost because Notaires–INSEE price data uses net seller prices.
We estimated renovation costs from typical old-property conditions in Burgundy towns and rural areas.

What sources have we used to write this blog article?
Whether it’s in our blog articles or the market analyses included in our property pack about Burgundy, we always rely on the strongest methodology we can … and we don’t throw out numbers at random.
We also aim to be fully transparent, so below we’ve listed the authoritative sources we used, and explained how we used them and the methods behind our estimates.
| Source and direct link | Why we trust it | How we used it |
|---|---|---|
| DVF / data.gouv.fr property transactions explorer | It is France’s public property transaction database and one of the strongest sources for actual closed residential sales. | We used it as the anchor for real transaction prices in Burgundy. We used it to avoid relying only on advertised prices, especially in rural and low-cost areas. |
| Notaires–INSEE old housing price index | INSEE is France’s national statistics agency, and this index is the official quality-adjusted old-home price index. | We used it to estimate price changes over one year and over the broader market cycle. We used it because it tracks net seller prices, not buyer all-in costs. |
| Immobilier.notaires.fr price map and notary market tools | It is the official property portal of French notaries and is based on notarial sale evidence. | We used it to cross-check sale price levels by area. We also used it to keep entry-level and luxury ranges aligned with real market values. |
| PAP regional price data, June 2026 | PAP is a long-established French property platform, and its June 2026 page combines market evidence with local price-per-square-meter data. | We used it as a fresh June 2026 snapshot for regional, departmental and city prices. We used it to build town-level ranges in Burgundy. |
| Meilleurs Agents, Burgundy-Franche-Comté, June 2026 | Meilleurs Agents is one of France’s best-known residential valuation platforms and is widely used for local property estimates. | We used it as a second private-sector check against PAP and DVF. We did not use it alone, because valuation indexes can differ from closed-sale evidence. |
| Service-Public / ANIL notary fee simulator | Service-Public is the official French public service portal, and the simulator is issued by ANIL. | We used it to estimate buying taxes and notary acquisition costs. We used it to separate the property price from the buyer’s final all-in cost. |
| Notaires de France acquisition costs | Notaires de France is the national notarial authority and explains how French acquisition costs work. | We used it to estimate that old-property buying costs are usually around 7% to 8%. We also used it to explain why new-build acquisition costs are usually lower. |
| Banque de France housing-loan statistics | Banque de France is France’s central bank and publishes official mortgage-rate and lending data. | We used it to explain why the Burgundy housing market stabilized in 2025 and 2026. We used it as market context, not as a direct price source. |
| ECB euro foreign exchange reference rates | The European Central Bank publishes the euro reference exchange rates used by institutions and analysts. | We used the 9 June 2026 EUR/USD rate of €1 = $1.1573. We converted euro values into dollars and rounded figures for readability. |
| DVF closed-sale evidence for rural Burgundy | DVF is useful for rural Burgundy because many low-cost homes never appear clearly in national price averages. | We used it to keep Nièvre, Le Creusot, Montceau-les-Mines and rural Yonne estimates realistic. We gave less weight to asking prices in slow markets. |
| Notarial evidence for premium Burgundy areas | Notarial data is important for premium areas because luxury homes can distort simple price-per-square-meter averages. | We used it to check Beaune, Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits ranges. We separated ordinary homes from wine-country and domaine-style properties. |
| PAP city-level price-per-square-meter data | PAP provides a readable local snapshot that helps compare towns in the same region. | We used it to compare Dijon, Beaune, Auxerre, Sens, Chalon-sur-Saône, Mâcon and Nevers. We then rounded the numbers to keep the article easy to read. |
