Even though real estate prices have been dropping in the city, there are still some streets where apartments are selling for top dollar. Meilleurs Agents, a real estate website, has just revealed the most expensive one, located in the 6th arrondissement!

If, in Monopoly, the Rue de la Paix is the most expensive in Paris, in the real world, what is the most expensive street in Paris? Meilleurs Agents asked the question and here is the answer: it's the Rue de Furstemberg, nestled in the heart of the Saint-Germain-des-Prés district, which breaks all records, with an average of €24,272/m² (compared to €9,403/m² on the Paris scale). Thanks to this pretty sum, it becomes the most expensive street in Paris, but also in France.


A Truly Charming Setting

Oh, what a delightful little street this is, with its quaint central square that is a must-visit when exploring the cultural history of Paris. Surrounded by the typical Parisian buildings and a peaceful atmosphere (despite being a popular tourist destination), this street has been graced by the presence of great artists like Claude Monet, Jean Anouilh, and even Eugène Delacroix. Today, the central square is home to the national museum.

But wait, there's more to this charming street - it has also been featured in various films like Martin Scorsese's The Age of Innocence, Gilles Mimouni's The Apartment, and even Fantastic Beasts. Do you know why? Because the entrance to the French Ministry of Magic is located here - no wonder prices are a bit higher, those wizards are probably just being cautious!

All these unique qualities have given this street a wonderful reputation, and it's hard not to be charmed by its allure and rich history! Let's explore and enjoy the magic of this special place in the heart of Paris!

Since it is just a few minutes away from two of the most famous cafes in Paris, namely Le Café de Flore and Les Deux Magots. More generally, the historic center of Paris is home to 5 of the 50 most expensive streets in France.


A Temporary Ranking

But, because of its popularity and extremely high prices, transactions on this street are quite uncommon, mostly involving "small apartments". These apartments are still around 140 m², but in this area, that's not very large.

That's why the rankings change every year. With sales being rare in these expensive neighborhoods, it only takes one slightly extraordinary transaction for a certain street to take the lead and move to the top of the ranking. Right now, Rue de Furstemberg holds the number 1 spot, but it may not last long.

Also making it to the top, we have the building with the best view of Parisian monuments, attracting attention and possibly influencing the ranking. Stay tuned for more updates!

The Quai des Orfèvres in the 1st arrondissement, the most expensive street in France in 2023, is giving up its title this year. This street, home to the former headquarters of the Paris police prefecture at number 36, boasts a price of 23,777 euros per square meter. And then there is Avenue Montaigne in the 8th Arrondissement, which reaches a slightly lower price of 23.,123 euros per square meter.Just pop this happy little script onto your website and watch the Twitter magic unfold!
