House Balma

Balma and its prestigious houses

Located to the east of Toulouse, Balma has become one of the most desirable residential areas for buyers seeking family homes and high-end villas in a leafy setting just a few minutes from the city centre. Nestled between the Canal du Midi, Parc de Lagarde and the hills of Cyprié, the town offers an exceptional living environment that combines peace, greenery and easy access to major roads — a rare balance that makes it one of the most sought-after sectors in the Toulouse metropolitan area for purchasing a house or villa.

Balma’s property market is mainly composed of contemporary architect-designed homes with generous volumes, villas with pools and landscaped gardens, and renovated family residences full of charm and character. In the neighbourhoods of Cyprié, Gramont, Lasbordes or the historic centre, many houses sit on large, tree-lined plots offering calm surroundings and, in some cases, open views of the surrounding countryside. More recent developments, particularly around Parc de Lagarde and the Cité de l’Espace area, feature premium amenities: wide picture windows, high-quality materials, smart-home systems, terraces and heated pools.

Buyers looking for houses in Balma are primarily seeking residential comfort without giving up proximity to Toulouse’s services: reputable schools (such as Collège Françoise Héritier), public transport (metro line A, bus routes, and quick access to the ring road) and major employment hubs such as Labège and Montaudran. The market for prestige homes is especially dynamic, driven by local, national and international buyers attracted by the area’s quality of life and security. Balma appeals equally to active families, executives and professionals seeking a primary or secondary residence in an exceptional environment.

House prices in Balma

The average price per square metre for a house in Balma is around €4,800. Prices vary significantly depending on location, land size, amenities and architectural quality. In the most sought-after areas (Cyprié, Lasbordes or near Parc de Lagarde), properties often sell for between €5,500 and €6,500/m², and sometimes more for architect-designed villas or homes with swimming pools and open views. Recently built family homes of 150–200 m² with gardens are typically priced between €700,000 and €1.2 million, while exceptional properties far exceed this range depending on location and features.

Among recent transactions is an elegant 400 m² property with swimming pool and landscaped grounds — a perfect example of Balma’s vibrant high-end housing market, where build quality and location remain decisive factors.

A constantly attractive high-end housing market

Over the past decade, Balma has seen a steady appreciation in property values, supported by the scarcity of available land and strong demand for homes with outdoor spaces. After a rise of about 40% in ten years, prices have stabilised since 2020 while remaining at a high level. The market remains active for quality properties, particularly those that balance space, location and amenities. This lasting appeal confirms Balma as a benchmark address for purchasing a prestigious house or villa near Toulouse.
