Damphreux and Lugnez now form a single commune in northern Ajoie on the French border, a rural area where village houses make up most of the housing.
Damphreux-Lugnez prices below the Jura median, at CHF 1,600 per m². For a buyer that widens what one budget covers, often by a room or by a plot. For a seller it means the surrounding communes set the ceiling. Prices below the cantonal level move later and less than the top of the market. In practice a correction in Jura reaches communes like this one with a delay, and so does a recovery.
Position 49 of 49 in Jura puts Damphreux-Lugnez among communes with similar price levels and often very different housing stock. Two communes can share a rank and still value the same flat differently once age and condition are taken in. Houses carry a premium of 119 percent per square metre over flats in Damphreux-Lugnez, CHF 3,500 against CHF 1,600. Households buying a house here are mostly trading up from a flat nearby, so demand holds even when volumes drop.
Up 4.2 percent in a year, Damphreux-Lugnez has been priced by whoever was willing to pay most for a small number of properties. In a commune with few sales, that is exactly how a median gets moved. Against the Porrentruy district the gap comes to 56 percent. This is the comparison that carries weight for an estimate, because communes in one district share a labour market, a transport network and the same pool of buyers. No single period defines Damphreux-Lugnez, though before 1919 leads with 28 percent. That mix works in a buyer's favour, since you can choose between period character and low running costs without leaving the commune.
The average home in Damphreux-Lugnez has 4.2 rooms for 111 m². That ratio describes the shape of local demand better than the price does.

Take it as a starting point. In a commune this size, the spread between the cheapest and the dearest street is often wider than the gap to the canton.
The 7-year record opens at CHF 5,300 and closes at CHF 6,300, +19 percent apart. Use it to sanity-check an estimate rather than to project forward, since nothing in the series promises the next decade repeats it. Enough properties change hands in Damphreux-Lugnez each year to keep the price data steady. Estimates land in a narrower range here, and a valuation can lean on recent comparable sales instead of falling back on the cantonal average.
In Damphreux-Lugnez the local price per m² is a floor, not an answer. What your property adds to it, or takes away from it, depends on its condition, its plot and its access to public transport.
