Paris real estate: Prices are exploding around two new metro stations
Between renovations, and line extensions: the Paris metro network has not finished reinventing itself. Since January, two new stations have appeared, driving up real estate prices. Line 4 of the Paris metro, which served Paris from Porte de Clignancourt to Montrouge Town Hall, has been extended since January to the town of Bagneux (Hauts-de-Seine). Initially scheduled for the end of 2021, the opening of these two stops has taken a little delay. They are named after two women: Lucie Aubrac (the French resistance fighter), in the Martyrs district of Châteaubriant, and Barbara (named after the interpreter of the Aigle Noir), which is located between Montrouge and Bayeux.

According to a study conducted by the website Meilleurs Agents, the extension of line 4 with these two new Barbara and Lucie-Aubrac stations, caused price increases of 32.6% and 38.4% respectively around these two stops. It now costs 8,084€/m2 to settle around Barbara station, i.e. 2,905€/m2 more than the average rate observed in Bagneux. While it takes 5,953€/m2 for the Lucie Aubrac station, or 774€/m2 more than the city average. You have been warned!
