Why live in Rennes in a T2 rental? 

 

 

Rennes, an affordable city on a human scale in Brittany

 

Rennes or "The Red City", nickname it takes from its many brick constructions, very few of which have survived to the present day, is the capital of Ille et Vilaine and its region: Brittany . 

Located in Upper Brittany, Rennes is the capital of its region. It has around 220,000 inhabitants and attracts new ones every year for its economic dynamism, promoting innovation and entrepreneurship, but also for its comprehensive medical offer; all reinforced by the still attractive real estate prices. It is a destination of choice for future students, since Rennes offers one of the highest success rates in higher education. It is part of the top ranking of cities in France where life is good, in particular thanks to the cost of daily life, lower than in the majority of French cities, but also for its highly developed transport offer.

The weather is often uncertain but there are still very good days. Anyway, Breton galettes and cider are always there to warm up. More or less 1 hour from the most visited places in Brittany: St Malo, Dinan, Mont St Michel... Rennes is a city on a human scale, definitely Breton.

 

 

The housing shortage in Rennes is very strong

 

There is a housing shortage when there is an imbalance between supply and demand. 2 room rentals are offers extremely prized in Rennes. It takes more or less 15 days with a complete file, to find accommodation in Rennes.

As in nearly 60% of cities in France, Rennes suffers from a very strong and even extreme shortage of furnished accommodation: there is at least twice as much demand as supply.

We count in Rennes about between 2 and 4 times more demands than offers.

 

Why choose a one-bedroom apartment to stay in Rennes? 

 

A 2-room apartment is the ideal choice for a single person or a young couple.

Housing types are categorized according to an attribute (T1, T2, T3, T4, etc.). It indicates the number of living rooms in addition to the bathroom and the kitchen, generally: the living room and the bedrooms. A one-bedroom apartment is a dwelling that is made up of two living rooms.

When renting accommodation, you must also take into account its category. Most often, we find the following types of accommodation: entire accommodation, shared accommodation, residence, furnished or not...

  • 85% of T2 housing offered in Rennes are furnished

What rent for a T2 rental in Rennes? 

 

The rent per square meter is 13€/sq.m. Rents for a one-bedroom apartment in Rennes or in its periphery vary greatly depending on the location, its surface area in m², but also the type of rental: furnished or not. For a furnished T2 rental in Rennes, it takes about 530€/month, and about 11 to 13% less for an empty housing.

 

What surface for a one-bedroom apartment in Rennes ? 

 

The type of dwelling indicates the number of rooms but does not take into account the overall surface. A T2 apartment can therefore be larger than a T3. For a one-bedroom apartment, the average area of ​​this type of accommodation in France is 45m². It may vary depending on the age of the property. Note that there is no minimum area for a 2-room apartment, apart from the minimum area for an apartment. In Rennes, the average surface of the 2 rooms is 40sq.m.

Rennes city center, a concentration of Breton history and culture

 

The architecture of the Breton capital contains a concentrate of history, between ramparts and royal works. It is the favorite place of life of the people of Rennes who like to meet and share a good time, comfortably installed on one of the many terraces in the city center, a symbol of the local art of living. 

The center of Rennes revolves around the historic heart and its string of small streets, where you can find many shops where you can run errands and good places to eat crêpes. The city center is also organized around the famous Place de la Mairie, which is admired for its royal architecture but also for its opera house, the smallest in France. Fan of art? You will not be outdone in Rennes and can discover unique works at La Criée, the Museum of Fine Arts or the Champs-Libres gallery. 

The accommodation in the center is mostly old buildings with the typical charm of Brittany, although you can find a few rare offers in the new. Rennes residents who choose the city center as a place to live often look for proximity to shops, schools and transport.

 

 

 

The Saint-Martin district, tranquility in the heart of the city

 

On the northern border of the city centre, you will find the Nord Saint-Martin district, very popular with Rennes residents looking for tranquility in the heart of the city.

Calm and green, this district is crossed by a canal of the same name: the Saint-Martin canal, whose banks have been developed to the delight of residents and urban sports enthusiasts, who love to cycle there. In this district, we also find the Prairies Saint-Martin, a large park with trails for runners and ponds for walkers. Nord Saint-Martin is a true natural setting in the heart of the city. In this district, a large majority of the buildings are very recent and modern, it is also here that we find the renowned Rennes School of Business or the contemporary art center: Frac Bretagne, which hosts temporary exhibitions and permanents of a new kind.
