François Hollande and Julie Gayet sold their Parisian house in 2022 to move to Corrèze. This sale allowed the couple to pocket a significant capital gain and contributed to driving up prices in the neighborhood. The couple has since lived on the heights of Tulle in Corrèze.
A real estate sale worth the wait. In 2020, François Hollande and Julie Gayet put up for sale their house in Paris purchased a year earlier by the actress. Located near Parc Montsouris in the 14th arrondissement, this 1920s villa has a living space of 200 m² and a garden of 70 m².
In a few months of presence, François Hollande and Julie Gayet carried out important work. “They broke everything inside […]. They even installed an elevator and brought tall trees into the garden,” explained a neighbor in The Parisian in 2023. But the house has a big handicap: we can hear the noise of the wind tunnel of the Montsouris mutual institute.
The villa put up for sale in 2020 attracts a buyer in 2022. It is sold for 3.3 million euros, or more than 16,000 euros per square meter. Three years earlier, Julie Gayet had bought it for 2 million euros, or 12,000 euros per square meter. “This price is a street record. It caused the value to explode. Since then, everyone wants to sell at this price,” explains a real estate professional to our colleagues.
“An exceptional house”
François Hollande and Julie Gayet left Paris for Corrèze, the electoral stronghold of the former President of the Republic. They acquired a 19th century mansion, Belle Epoque period, on the heights of Tulle with an area of 2800 m² with a 3000 m² wooded park. The House Journal describes the interior of this “exceptional house”: a large, bright living room, wooden floors, an old fireplace and a beautiful wooden staircase. Julie Gayet redecorated the place from floor to ceiling and the house served as a reception venue for their wedding on June 4, 2022.
This love nest in Limousin is the place where the couple reunited, between the parliamentary activities of François Hollande, elected NFP deputy for Corrèze, and the cinematographic activities of Julie Gayet with her latest film on the life of Olympe de Gouges, ” Olympe, a woman in the Revolution”, in which she embodies this little-known character in French History.
