Everything at garden level, from the bedroom to the terrace: the low house is the island tradition, and the steadiest demand on the market.
The island has always built low: salt workers' cottages hunkered down against the wind, farmhouses opening onto a courtyard, recent villas that repeat the same gesture. Here a single-storey house is not a compromise, it is the local architecture: bedrooms, kitchen and terrace all on one level, and daily life sliding out towards the garden.
It is also one of the most sought-after parts of the market: young families, year-round residents and retired buyers all look for it. The best single-storey houses sell quickly, often before they are ever published: a well-set email alert makes all the difference here.
