Pas-de-Calais, you have the Aisne,
Nord, Oise, and Somme. The latter
is named after the river but known
around the world for being the site
of some of the bloodiest battles of
the Great War. As such, it is home
to many military cemeteries and
signifi cant monuments. On a less
grisly note, the area also attracts
cyclists from all over the world, and
you will often see a multi-coloured
peloton fl ash by, particularly at
the weekend. You can tell the real

it throughout the year, but when
there is an offi cial event, the roads
are strewn with broken bicycles and
broken bodies!
Property prices vary greatly
within the fi ve departments here.
Lowest prices are in easterly Aisne,
while prices rise in southerly Oise
as you get closer to Paris, and in
Nord as you get close to Lille. You
will also pay a premium if you want
to buy a property with sea views on
the coast.

team of agents in Hauts-de-France
with an ever-changing portfolio of
properties on offer. Prices in the
region are great value for money
compared to those in the UK or
across the border in Belgium. We
always have plenty of choice in the
50-150,000 euro range, and at the
top-end, we have some gorgeous
country houses and family homes.
