Seignosse, the pearl of Les Landes

With a shoreline 6 km long, Seignosse boasts some of the loveliest beaches in Les Landes. Called Les Casernes, Le Pernon, Les Bourdaines or Les Estagnots, some are known by surfers worldwide. Benefiting from beach restaurants and surf schools, they have won the national “Qualité Tourisme” distinction rewarding their high level of reception facilities and equipment.

Focusing on sales of outstanding properties on the Basque and Landes coasts, Birdie L’Agence proposes very enticing villas on the highly-coveted commune of Seignosse, such as a contemporary villa of 156 m² with a pool, built in 2020. Light and airy, offering high-quality appointments and finishes conforming perfectly to current criteria, it is comprised of a vast living area and 4 bedrooms with their own bath/shower rooms. It is presented at 1.2 million euros by Birdie L’Agence.

“The golf domain and areas around the beaches are the most sought-after by our clients in Seignosse,”

says Julian Girard, a professional in prestige real estate for over 17 years, and heading up the Birdie agency with his partner Thibault Blancafort. “Following a post-Covid period of real euphoria marked by sales at record prices, we have seen a return to a more serene pace over the past four months. Hyper-luxury is doing well in Les Landes, with some properties doubling in value in just two years ! Today, however, our clientele with high potential has become more demanding with regard to locations and the quality of appointments. Seignosse is an address of undeniable charm in a strategic location, just next to Hossegor. Properties here are still seeing rising demand : even very basic villas of the 1960’s/1970’s, which only a short while ago sold for 450,000 to 650,000 €, are now presented from 1 to 1.4 million euros afer some refurbishment.”

On this market with high potential, Birdie L’Agence has chosen to opt for quality rather than quantity : bespoke real estate. Very often, it has thus been a choice go-between in the area’s most impressive transactions. Backed by a powerful local network, these professionals concentrate on personalized orchestration of exceptional properties, especially for a clientele of golf enthusiasts, as well as a good number of ex-pats aged under 40, working in finance and hi-tech.

“With budgets often close on 5 million euros, they are fond of the neo-Basque style of architecture of the 1920’s and 1930’s which has retained its charm and authenticity - with the N°1 benchmark obviously remaining a prime location”

Views of the sea or lake are much appreciated, along with an address allowing for a walk-everywhere lifestyle. For most of these clients, an acquisition is a matter of personal enjoyment, though also a strategic investment. “Many of these investors undertake extensive renovation to give these iconic villas a second lease of life. Here at Birdie, we accompany them in each stage of their project, with discretion and professionalism.”
