Often written La Chaux (Cossonay) to set it apart from places of the same name, this rural Morges district municipality lies between Cossonay and L'Isle.
Flat prices in La Chaux run at CHF 7,300 per m², a level that has stayed in step with Vaud. A commune like this one moves with the cantonal cycle rather than against it, so the wider trend is a fair guide for your own estimate. The largest band in La Chaux is before 1919, at 43 percent of homes. Buildings of that age were rarely insulated when built, so running costs and the cost of the works belong in the price you offer, not in a list for later.
Average size in La Chaux is 136 m² across 4.3 rooms. Compare your own property with that figure before you read any price per square metre, because an outsized home rarely sells at the local rate and a small one often beats it. Sales are sparse in La Chaux, which makes any commune-level figure less certain. A property here is better valued on its own characteristics and on sales in the neighbouring communes than on a local median built from a handful of deeds.
Half the flats sold in La Chaux went above CHF 7,300 per m² and half below, which puts the commune 8 percent from the Vaud median. One exceptional sale barely moves a median, and that is why we use it instead of an average. Sitting under the Vaud median gives a buyer room, though the discount is rarely free. It usually pays for distance from a station, from the lake, or from a school catchment that people compete over. Against the Morges district the gap comes to 18 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.
Per square metre, a flat in La Chaux at CHF 7,300 costs more than a house at CHF 6,900. Large houses spread their price across surface nobody pays the full rate for (corridors, cellars, attic space under the eaves). The last twelve months added 2.9 percent in La Chaux. Rises of this order usually come from a shortage of listings rather than from a wave of new buyers, and they unwind faster than they build.
Over 25 years the median moved from CHF 3,400 to CHF 7,500 per m², a change of +121 percent. That is the market, not your property. A flat renovated in the meantime followed a different curve entirely. Knowing the median in La Chaux gets you halfway. The second half is what separates your property from that median (condition, orientation, outside space, parking, and the works still to be done).

The reference is CHF 6,900 per m² in La Chaux. It averages a small number of sales, since houses change hands far less often than flats, so treat it as a bracket to work inside rather than as a price.
Homes in La Chaux average 4.3 rooms, with before 1919 the most common construction period at 43 percent. The mix means condition varies a lot from one building to the next, and condition is what pulls two similar flats apart on price.
