The Atlantic for a horizon: from the Pertuis Breton to the Fier d'Ars, the houses that look out to sea are the rarest on the island.
France's Coastal Law and a demanding local plan have kept the island's shoreline intact: almost nothing new is built facing the sea. Front-line houses are therefore a finite asset. They are handed down within families, and when one does come to the market it goes quickly, often without ever appearing online.
And a sea view on Ré takes a thousand forms: the quaysides and ramparts of Saint-Martin, the seafront at La Flotte, the shifting light over the Fier d'Ars, the wide open beaches of the north, or the Pertuis d'Antioche facing the bridge. Each shoreline has its own character and its own market, which our consultants follow sale after sale.
