Property for sale in Marne

Marne is the heart of the Champagne region, home to more of the great Champagne houses and vineyards than any other department in France. Good rail links keep Reims and Épernay well connected to Paris and the surrounding region. Layered with royal and wine history, Marne is home to Reims Cathedral, where French kings were once crowned, and to Epernay's Avenue de Champagne, lined with grand Champagne houses. Elsewhere in the department, buyers will find the Montagne de Reims regional park, with its walking trails through forest and hillside, and the quieter, medieval centre of Châlons-en-Champagne, the department's capital. Marne is recognised too for its wine tourism, with Champagne producers welcoming visitors throughout the year. A temperate climate brings warm summers and cool winters. Options on the market range from a village house, a townhouse in Châlons or a rural property further from the coveted Champagne slopes, Marne offers a range of options. With Champagne heritage and good transport links, it remains one of the more sought-after departments in the region. For buyers considering the local property market, the average price for a house in Marne is €1,667/m².
