Luxury Real Estate in Nice
Built by the Greeks, Nice has always benefited from its strategic location and its port, which helped establish its maritime importance.
Annexed to France in 1860—until then, it was Italian—the capital of the Alpes-Maritimes is now a cosmopolitan destination, rich in both architecture and culture.
Energetic and glamorous, picturesque and international, Nice and its bay—one of the most beautiful in the world—ranks 5th among French cities. People come from all over the world for its climate, the Promenade des Anglais, its luxury shops, and its inimitable atmosphere.
Here, small fishing boats share the harbor with superyachts, residential neighborhoods blend with the village houses of Old Nice, and authenticity coexists with sophistication.
The second most visited city in France after Paris, Nice has been attracting tourists since the 18th century.
At that time, British aristocrats spent their winters here. The narrow streets of the old town remain privileged witnesses to history and to the strong ties forged with Italy.
Beyond its distinctly transalpine architecture, which offers some fine examples of buildings, the city has many Italian restaurants.
Romantic as well, Nice is sure to charm lovers of art and culture. Its pebble beaches, some of which are private, remain must-visit spots, welcoming both locals and tourists throughout the year… or almost.
THE DIFFERENT NEIGHBORHOODS
The Western Hills
They are located very close to the main roads (highway and expressway) connecting Cannes and Monaco, the Promenade des Anglais, and central Nice.
Le Carré d’Or
The city center, the most sought-after neighborhood, slightly set back from the Promenade des Anglais and just a few minutes’ walk from Old Nice. The renovation of its harbor basins, the arrival of the tram in the area, and the development of green spaces have given it a new vitality.
Cimiez
Known as the “Little Neuilly of Nice,” this peaceful, leafy neighborhood is set apart from the city center while still remaining quite accessible.
Mont-Boron
Perched on the heights of eastern Nice, this residential neighborhood remains a must-visit. The sea views here are sometimes spectacular.
ACTIVITIES
Stroll along the Promenade des Anglais
This is Nice’s iconic activity! This long seaside promenade offers stunning views of the Mediterranean. Perfect for walking, cycling, or simply enjoying the sun on a bench.
Explore Old Nice
Wander through the colorful streets of the historic center, discover markets such as the Cours Saleya (especially the flower market), and taste local specialties like socca or pissaladière.
