Luxury real estate in Cannes
Cannes has always been associated with affluent crowds and luxury real estate. Throughout the year the city hosts many landmark events in business, culture and the arts: the Cannes Film Festival, a fireworks festival, yacht shows, regattas, exhibitions and performances that attract tourists from around the world, and the luxury hotels and boutiques along the Croisette emphasize the status of visiting clients.
Buying property in Cannes suits a demanding buyer seeking luxury on the French Riviera. Wealthy people will find here all the attributes of luxury and comfort they are used to. Even the villages above Cannes are refined and sophisticated: Mougins, Valbonne.
Luxury real estate in Cannes is primarily associated with apartments on the Croisette promenade or in the Californie area, as well as with villas above Cannes in the Super Cannes area.
Buy a villa in Cannes
If you want to buy a house in Cannes with a large plot, a pool and panoramic sea views, then, as in Nice, such a house is easier to find not in the center but on the hills around Cannes. In the eastern part this is the Croix des Gardes area; in the western part — Californie and Super Cannes.
You can buy a house in Cannes in neighborhoods close to the center, but in the lower part of the city it is harder to find sea views and absolute quiet — such properties are more likely to be city mansions with a small plot, yet within walking distance of the center and the sea.
A house in Cannes will cost more than a comparable property in Nice, because real estate prices in Cannes are generally higher.
When searching for property in Cannes you can expand your geographic search to nearby towns: Le Cannet, Mougins. If you dream of building a house in Cannes, finding a land plot in a prestigious spot with sea views will be difficult and very expensive; as an alternative you can buy land in the stylish villages above Cannes: Mougins, Valbonne, Opio.
