The most expensive streets in France have been revealed in a new ranking by real estate company Meilleurs Agents.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the most expensive street in the country is in Paris, at the heart of the French capital’s historic centre.

While Paris is home to the five most expensive streets, we also take a look at the priciest addresses outside of the capital.

Cannes

Boulevard de la Croisette – €12,410/m².

The glamorous Côte d’Azur is one area that has bucked the national trend of falling property prices.

Boulevard John-Fitzgerald-Kennedy - €10,948/m².

Nice

Avenue Jean-Lorrain – €10,300/m²

Sitting right beside the Mediterranean, homes on Avenue Jean-Lorrain will enjoy incredible sea views, which likely contributes to its price tag, the most expensive in Nice.
