Property in Cessy (01170)

Cessy has made the most of sitting between Gex and the border: every service within reach, without the scale of a town. Recent growth came through housing estates and small apartment blocks, leaving a young housing stock and a distinctly family-oriented feel.

Houses built between the 1990s and 2015 dominate, with a growing share of recent apartments. Demand comes largely from cross-border families wanting schools and shops within walking distance.

• Nursery and primary schools in the commune; secondary and sixth-form in Gex
• Shops and supermarkets in Cessy itself and in Gex
• Geneva via Ferney-Voltaire, around 20 minutes off-peak
• Gex next door, and the Lélex-Crozet ski area close by
