A short distance from Saignelégier, Le Bémont is a small Franches-Montagnes village set among the farms and pastures of the high plateau.
Flats in Le Bémont change hands around CHF 4,900 per m², well above what the rest of Jura pays. The premium is priced into the land more than into the building, which is why two similar houses here can be valued very differently. No single period defines Le Bémont, though before 1919 leads with 40 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 Le Bémont has 4.3 rooms for 120 m². That ratio describes the shape of local demand better than the price does. Many small rooms point to family housing, fewer and larger ones to conversions and new build.
The market in Le Bémont is thin, and that cuts both ways. Prices are slow to fall because few sellers are forced, and slow to be confirmed because months can pass without a single comparable sale. Half the flats sold in Le Bémont went above CHF 4,900 per m² and half below, which puts the commune 20 percent from the Jura median. One exceptional sale barely moves a median, and that is why we use it instead of an average.
Paying 20 percent more than the cantonal median buys location, not floor space. The same budget moved to a neighbouring commune would typically add a room, and that is the trade most buyers here have already made. The district test is the harder one. Le Bémont comes out 7 percent from the District des Franches-Montagnes median, measured against communes competing for the same buyers rather than against a whole canton with several markets in it.
Per square metre, a flat in Le Bémont at CHF 4,900 costs more than a house at CHF 4,400. Large houses spread their price across surface nobody pays the full rate for (corridors, cellars, attic space under the eaves). Up 4.8 percent in a year, Le Bémont 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. The 7-year record opens at CHF 4,700 and closes at CHF 5,800, +23 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.
A price level like the one in Le Bémont leaves little room for approximation. An estimate built on the actual characteristics of your property, floor, condition, view and exposure, will tell you more than any commune average.

Houses in Le Bémont are valued around CHF 4,400 per m² of living space. The plot weighs heavily on that figure, so two houses of identical size can be far apart in price if one has land around it and the other has none.
40 percent of homes in Le Bémont date from before 1919. That age band sets the technical agenda for a buyer here, since insulation, heating system and windows are what decide running costs for the next twenty years.
